I drove both and ended up with the S5 SB since it was going to be a daily driver. The RS5 is without a question geared more towards the hardcore side of things and would be ideal for someone looking to track it occasionally. The engine is incredible. With that said the S5 SB is truly a spectacular car in every way. 

I have a S5 Sportback and my personal opinion is it's not worth the money. What little speed you gain and differentiating looks is not worth the significant price increase. The jump from A5 to S5 is more significant. 

I’d take Bangle over this shit, every single day.

I voted for Cadillac but my real vote is “an unlisted third option.”

First, I would like to point out the problems with that chyron: “20% tip for bad service.” A tip is not a reward system—it is the majority of a server’s salary. The federal minimum wage for tipped employees is $2.13 an hour because, according to the government, the expectation is that the customer will cover the…

I’m sort of ashamed of how high “good visibility” was on my list of priorities when buying my most recent car.

2 years is for a straight bourbon. No minimum for just bourbon, but usually at least 3 months.

‘04-’08 Maxima. Inset trunk, slightly buttressed rear window, 7 spoke wheels, headlights shaped to the front wheel arch, no chrome strip over the tag

What are these vaguely futuristic light triangles supposed to be?

All I want for Christmas is a BPR Global GT revival

It’s a DCT. I’ve driven two (no, not McLarens. DCTs.) in traffic. They were just fine.

I don’t know, I feel like most of these issues would be solved by not living in a city center, and by having a garage, as presumably 99% of the buyers of these cars do.

I think lapped cars should be allowed to turn around and drive in the opposite direction at full throttle, take out a few opponents, then pause and hit ‘Restart Race’.

...wait, what are we talking about again?

Because it has a nicer interior, better styling, and more usable infotainment system, and handles better? The 2.0 motor is solid and pretty reliable, so this thing is hardly going to be like owning an Alfa.

Have you driven both? I don’t particularly like Audis (although I did just ride in my buddy’s S6 and that is a great car) but before I bought an E550 5 or so years ago, I tested both the A6 and GS350 F-sport and I couldn’t imagine anyone choosing the Lexus in that scenario.

They never had a ton, except for an engine and a front suspension.

Just imagine if they had sold this as the Supra!

Nothing says relaxation and early retirement like McLaren.

This is definitely their fault for all the reasons you list. Also, the last time the Golf sold particularly well was with the MkV generation when the rebadged it as a Rabbit for a short time. Those things were everywhere. (and to be honest I think the MkV Golf was better looking than the GTI). I kind of saw this…

I can’t drink Squirt anymore after finding out it’s really just pee
