S5 test drive.

Well....
They want 5K as a deposit. The 1st dealer only needs 1k. So Mr. test drive dealership is out. Nice young guy. Big boy. 6'5" about 260. First impression...fairly good size machine. Seats are top notch. Firm, grippy and great ergonomics. Pretty busy cabin. Knobs and switches every where. Now for the drive. The car sounds awesome. I have to admit the Quattro(sp) system with the nice V8 is a weird feeling at first. I nailed it in 2nd and expected some tail dipping and maybe some chirping. It stayed as level as standing still. I would need a few more ponies to be happy. I will research what will be available. $$$ probably. Every other car was staring which I don't mind. There were 3 people waiting to drive it when we got back. I like it. The size will become a non issue. Got in my SSTT 335 and it felt like a go cart. I wish I could have both. I am an older fart that needs and wants a little more luxury. He mentioned it will be available with a TT in a year or so.
