Some Colorado Audi enthusiasts may be aware that the 2008 Audi A5 is a new mid-size sporty coupe that shares mechanical underpinnings with the upcoming 2009 Audi A4 sedan. The Audi A5 was unveiled simultaneously at the Geneva Motor Show and Melbourne International Motor Show on March 6, 2007.
To look at the 2008 Audi A5, it’s difficult to believe that it’s considered entry level. It is what chief Audi stylist Walter de Silva deems “the most beautiful car I have ever designed,” and it had a Jalopnik reviewer drooling when he caught a glimpse of it on a California highway, calling it “simply smashing.”
Edmunds calls it “curvaceous yet muscular,” while Cars.com says it’s “instantly recognizable as an Audi.” Car and Driver feels the 2008 Audi A5 has something for everyone: “Mature proportions that will please the dandy, sate the sports-car enthusiast, and offend no one.” Kelley Blue Book concurs that the A5 is “elegant” inside and out. ForbesAutos declares the A5’s “wide shoulder lines, high beltline and massive trapezoidal front grille” are a success, and that its back end kicks up subtly to “preserve a clean aesthetic.” The overall look “strikes a balance between timeless elegance and dramatic flair.”
Inside, the 2008 Audi A5 feels lavish and luxurious, with high-grade materials and plenty of attention to small design details. The display screen for Audi’s Multi-Media Interface (MMI) dominates the top of the instrument panel. The interior is “more sporty than luxurious,” according to ConsumerGuide, but retains “a classy driving environment–functional and comfortable, cool but not overstyled,” Automobile observes.
