2014 Audi RS5 - Misano Red - Stunning Car
This is a truly rare car that has tremendous presence on the road as Audi only brought 1500 RS5s to the States each year. This is one of the last high revving naturally aspirated V8s ever made and is sure to be a modern day classic. The RS5 has an almost identical engine to the R8 (4.2L V8 with 450hp and 8500rpm redline) but with the added benefit of having two backseats and great everyday drive-ability. You won't find a car that has such an exquisite blend of curb appeal, practicality and performance. This RS5 has 20" wheels, MMI Navigation plus package with back-up cam, B&O surround sound, blind-spot detection, dealer tinted windows, and the coveted sport exhaust system. It recently had its 5,000 mile service performed at Audi in San Francisco (no problems whatsoever) and still has the majority of its warranty remaining. Car has ~5,000 miles on it and was built in Jan 2014 and delivered in April 2014. If you're not familiar with this car checkout what professional race car driver, Randy Pobst, had to stay: "The R8 should be half this good! This car is fantastic. I adore it. It does such a great job utilizing all-wheel-drive traction off the corner, with zero push. You just drive in there and you think it's too early, but you just floor it and you're like, man, I should've gotten on the gas sooner. And no push, no oversteer -- it just drives right out of there, beautifully carving an exit line, using all the power. The gearbox is also very friendly. I just got more confident with carrying speed in and trusting the grip" http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...n/viewall.html ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by onatuesday; 10-16-2014 at 04:01 PM.. |

Nice catch, not sure why that got left out but price has been updated.
$71,400 asking price. Car is not a lease and not really in a rush to sell...I really don't even want to sell it to be honest especially as I believe that when the 2015s are sold out this car will hold value well since it's limited production + last of the NA V8s. However, I think another owner will get more out of it since I'm mainly driving my other car now and I'm not a fan of having garage queens ![]() Last edited by onatuesday; 09-22-2014 at 05:13 PM.. |

Stunning indeed. How does it compare with the M4? I wouldn't be able to choose in the mornings!
