It Took 219 Days, but My New 2012 Baby From Germany Has Arrived (Audi)

[King21Rich]

Super sick...Im a huge fan of the 5. I might have to look at one when I get ready to purchase a new whip!

 

[josebronx]

That was discontinued in the US in 2009 I believe.  It's only offered in Europe now.  They say the performance is similar with much better gas mileage in this version.

congrats, my pops just got an A7.

that media system is too dope. his is the pop up though. the instrument panel display is so convenient too.

now if i could just get him to let me drive it...
did yours actually come WITH the backup cam? they told my dad the parts are backed up from all the stuff that happened with Japan. so it has the backup, but he has to go get some part installed when it arrives. he bought from dealer though opposed to order the way you did.

Per Audi's site:
2.0 liter turbocharged with intercooler, DOHC in-line four-cylinder gasoline engine with FSI[emoji]174[/emoji] direct injection, variable valve timing and Audi valvelift system.

211 hp, 258 lb-ft of torque.

wow that thung is underpowered for the price... no wonder it looks so sexy

no hate bruh i jus had no idea it only had 211 horses... thats 30 more than my TC

what do the performance numbers look like for those things? stock turbo must be a beasttt

211 might not seem like a lot but the fact that it's hitting 60 in the low 6's should give you a bigger picture on how torque and gearing have a lot to do with acceleration as much as HP. This thing should be @++!@#% amazing for daily driving...I didn't think 260 lb/ft of torque at 1500 rpm was even possible in a V4...but apparently it is. Have fun with it man, congrats.

Man before opening the thread I said to myself "If its an A5 Im gonna cry" 

. Nice purchase bro!

This is THE car I want right now. But since I paid off the whip 2 years ago I love not having a monthly note ha.

Congrats again

 

[night marcher01]

Nice whip OP. How much was it all together? How much you paying a month?

Same deal with me.  It is prepped for the back up cam, but it is not currently installed.  They told me it should be in around January, and it's an easy install to put the camera in.

 

[laflech44]

^^ alright word glad they weren't just screwing us.

enjoy it my man

 

[dajondondo]

loving it.... especially the alacantra seats.. good pickup.

 

[stillin729]

Love the 5's, the A5 is a underpowered for the price IMO but it's still a great looking car

 

[ptone]

Wish I could own stuff that nice down here...

 

[celticspride34]

It was actually the 3.2 V6 they canned... 261HP and 241 pound feet... also Audi underrated the 2.0T... its a lot more peppy than it lets on...

I'm jelly.

That car is beautiful.
Good stuff op.

 

[big j 33]

It seems like its everything you want and that's all that matters, congrats on the purchase and patience to wait. I absolutely love Audis and it looks terrific, I would have gone more towards performance but that's me and you said it wasn't a priority and with traffic, automatic makes sense.

Well done.

 

[spidermachine916]

sweeeet

 

[thenewjs23]

I test drove one of these and it was bananas.

 

[finnns2003]

I love it, great pickup, that looks unbelievably nice... I cannot believe they put a 211-hp engine in that though. What a disgrace. I was thinking of dropping the EVO for an Audi but they're ridiculously underpowered. Even the S5 is 50hp under where I'm at now.
