Car manufacturers have personalities. For example, a BMW has a certain feel behind the wheel, as does a Mercedes-Benz and an Audi. Until the S5, that Audi feel was a little different than BMW’s (as in, not quite as good). Now things are different, and Audi’s new V-8 powered S5 combines the best of all worlds: the steering feel and controllability of a BMW, the all-wheel drive of an Audi, and the V-8 roar of an American muscle car.
