2011 Audi S5 Cabriolet 3.0 TFSI quattro Premium Review
Sunday, November 27, 2011
I just spent last week in the Audi S5 Coupe and fell in love. The only thing that could make the car better, in my opinion, is to have a topless option. My dreams have almost come true this week; I say almost because even though the basic shape, styling and badging are similar, Audi did more than just make the coupe a convertible.

He's the one you really have to blame for all that lusting and gawking.
