Reviews of the 2008 Audi S5
-
CNET Review
The Good: The beautiful 2008 Audi S5's engine delivers smooth power, while the Quattro all-wheel-drive system keeps the car on the road. The Bang & Olufsen audio system is in the top three car stereos we've heard, and the iPod integration complements it well.
The Bad: There's a big price to pay for this kind of power, and it's in the form of lousy gas mileage.
The Bottom Line: With its refined cabin tech, very nice performance, and beautiful design, the 2008 Audi S5 excels in most areas, only being dragged down by poor mileage and unambitious cabin tech.
