I'm already freaking happy that the RS5 will be in the showrooms by fall of this year! It not even making it across the ocean scared the hell out of me If you really need a high performance car now, why not just lease the new S4 for a little while and then make the payment for the RS5 when it hits Canada later on this year. I'm sure the Audi sales rep will be happy to have u as his customer lol |

I don't like my Audi dealerships here, I just want the RS5. S4 is too slow, if I wanted something like that I would have sprugn for the S5 2 years ago... :/ Now it's either the M3 or RS5. And if the RS5 is >110k with ceramic breaks I'm going to have to pass, since my parents gave me a hard budget of 100k (and I can MAYBE Push that to 105-110 including tax) so I'm not gonna wait to be disappointed. A used R8 has also come to mind, although I'm not too sure if I want to drive it in winter since it might be too low. If I can get some bilsteins for it and raise it then that would be an option, too. |

Dude
Bit of advice, gett off your arse and go out and earn the money to buy the car yourself. Some rich spoon fed oich will not appreciate the car if someone else paid for it. Your parents should be investing the money into your education and not your wheels.

When I was a kid of 15 my dad told me if I wanted a car he would cough up half the money but I had to come up with the rest, it was the best thing ever and learned me to respect money and my car. BTW that car was a Ford Escort 1600sport and it cost £1000 at the time, probably the equivalent to £7000 today. A far cry from the $100k being discussed here. |

Edmunds.com has an estimate up on their website of $68,250 for the RS5 and a target launch of 'Fall 2010'.
http://www.edmunds.com/new/2011/audi...75/prices.html Also on Fourtitude, one of the members confirms with a reliable source that the RS5 will be coming as a 2012 model. So most likely coming in 2011 as a 2012 model? I dont know what to make of this info. Footie, maybe you can help clear up some of this. http://forums.fourtitude.com/zerothread?id=4791297 Last edited by askmeaboutkfc; 03-08-2010 at 12:04 AM.. |

I was only showng my experience of life and how I was brough up. Each parent has to chose their own path for their children but I personally don't think it's the right one to buy a $100K motor for them, it never teachs them the value of things (expensive things in this case) not the enjoyment that comes from earning those goods themselves.

If the starting price of the RS5 really is $68,250, it'll be $9,850 MORE than the base price of a M3 coupe. That's terrible.......... I can see perhaps a 3-5k jump but 10k? You gotta be kidding me if that's gonna be the actual starting price. Last edited by Garduna; 03-08-2010 at 10:22 AM.. |

Remember that the RS5 includes a lot of hi-tech equipment. |

True, I haven't taken that to account. For those that live in NA, we'll just have to wait and see just what the RS5 comes included as "standard" and then do a price match.

2012 in Canada? The 68 isn't so bad, if you compare it to the S4 pricing it seems aggressively priced.
I wonder how much the ceramic brakes will be. P.S> I never said I deserved the car or i'm not fortunate to have these circumstances. |
