I've owned a wagon as my daily driver for over 12 years, but now I've got something different. M.S.R.P. - $67,720.

That’s good that Audi included a spare tire. So many carmakers these days are doing away with them which I think is a mistake. Enjoy your new ride it looks amazing.

Yeah. No tire inflator for this car, which is rare even for Audi. Thanks for watching!
Congratulations! Beautiful car and great review.

Great review. I’ve been torn between a wagon and this car. There’s definitely a shortage of wagons in the used car market.

Thank you. I would have loved to get another wagon, but as you said, there aren't many out there. This sportback (read: hatchback) has been a nice alternative. I still think wagons are cooler, but until I can afford an RS6 Avant or E63 S, this will have to do. 😂 Thanks for watching!
This man is underrated 💯

I test drove the same car. I really loved the exhaust system. The upkeep was the only thing that kept me from pulling the trigger. Great car! Congrats

Yeah, that's why it had to have some new car warranty for the initial unforseen stuff. Maintenance is key and my wife's Q7 has been fantastic after 7 years so I'm hoping for the same with this car. Thanks for watching!
Nice buy. This one is on my list of possible next cars

Welcome to Audiville. I have the exact same options (all of them), Daytona Grey Pearl also 2022 but I got the S3. I wanted a smallish car after driving my Maxima for 19 years. Man what a fun car. I like all the Audis including your s5. Congratulations. Did you get the 15 speaker B&O system?
@AutoAcademics
3 ай бұрын
Thank you. Yes, I have the B&O system. Fortunately, mine doesn't have the issues with bass like some other people have reported. Enjoy your S3 and thanks for watching!
I am a lucky owner of the Audi A5 s-line (2019) for the last 4 months with the same gray colour and brown seats. And I am sure, my next car will be an S5 like on the video!

Nice purchase Chris! I have a 2022 RS5 Sportback but had an S5 Sportback prior to it. Awesome cars! Funny, my passenger side door speaker just blew on mine as well (only 4k miles)...getting replaced under warranty. I can't give any recommendations on all seasons since I'm on winter tires right now (living in Toronto, Canada). However, I've heard great things about the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's. Enjoy it in good health my friend!

Hi, I enjoyed your video. I like the Audi S5 Sportback a lot. Would like to pick one up next to replace our aging A6 Quattro sedan. However, my wife has her eyes on a S5 Cabriolet. We have pretty much kept Continental Extreme Contacts DWS 06 tires on our A6 Quattro. The tires are probably overkill for our Atlanta winters, but there was one snow storm about 10 years ago where they showed their worth. My wife passed many vehicles on her way home from work which couldn't make it up a hill not far from our house. The A6 is mostly driven by my wife around town although it has made more than a few long trips. The Continental's have been good tires. They are not cheap tires, but they do last a good while. Handling and stopping in both dry and wet conditions has been very good. I think there is a newer version of the tires which now provide even sharper handling. Or, if you want to maximize handling you could go to the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's. I have heard that the Michelin's are worth the price.

Thank you for your reply. I ran the Michelin All Season 4s on my CTS wagon and loved them, so they are definitely on my list. The DWS 06s are the others that I am considering, as well. Again, I appreciate your input. Thanks for watching and Happy Holidays!
For all season tires, if you stick to the 20 inch wheels, I would recommend the MICHELIN PILOT SPORT ALL SEASON 4 tires. Or you could switch the wheels down to 19 inch, I'd get CONTINENTAL EXTREMECONTACT DWS 06 PLUS.

@@AutoAcademics For sure.. We have the Michelin pilot sport all season 4 on our '20 Subaru STI. Therefore yes, as @johnb9171 mentions, they are both excellent A/S Tires!!!
Congratulations man, beautiful car. I’m seriously considering the S5 for my next car, my only concern is the long term reliability since I tend to keep a car for 10+ years, rational side says I should get a Lexus but I love the look of this car.
1:52 Wait!!! Did you say wireless AA? My B9 S4 is a little jealous!!!
@AutoAcademics
4 ай бұрын
😅 Yup. Works well, too. But don't be jealous. Wireless AA runs your battery down and my car has the phonebox delete option (no wireless charging) so I have to plug it in to keep my phone from dying on long trips. Oh, well. 🤷🏾♂️
