The unit that I’m driving today comes with a 3.2 V6 naturally aspirated gasoline engine with direct injection.
265HP, 330Nm of torque – 0 to 100km/h in a little over 6 seconds.
Yeah, I know, not that much torque, but trust me, it sounds awesome!
18″ inch wheels, 3 spoke Audi S-Line steering wheel, and Quattro AWD as standard.
The car itself is extremely agile, extremely precise, the steering is absolutely perfect. Stability and handling in this car is annoyingly good, Quattro simply makes this car feel as if it’s glued to the road.
The A5 Coupe has a lower centre of gravity and a lower driving position compared to other Audi models that I’ve driven. Well, not as low as the TT, but lower than I expected at first.
Full leather interior, multimedia interface, paddle shifters, a tiptronic automatic transmission, dual climate control, and the list of features goes on.
The price for the model that I’m driving today, used, from 2010, with the same mileage – is anywhere around 10 to 11 thousand euros.
Personally, this 3.2 engine is my favourite one from Audi, not too big, not too thirsty, reliable, sounds good, and it can be economical if you drive … without breaking the speed limit.
In 30 km, I managed to get 17L/100km, but if you’re cruising in 6th gear, you can get as low as 7L/100km. So, the average fuel consumption for this car is anywhere around 13L/100km. Not that good, but not that bad, either.
Now, the downsides of this car. I have found only 2. First of all, the car is extremely rigid and bumpy. If you’re planning to drive this car for over 1000 km, it will be really tiring at some point. And the second one… the car looks pretty big, but the space in the interior is not enough. This car can perfectly fit 2 adults plus some luggage, but that’s it. It has 4 seats, but they’re … tiny.
