It definitely give the 3er something to think about! Good thing the 3er is due for a new model in a few years!

insomniac 01-06-2011 08:32 PM

will we see more 3 series coupe's or these? :lol
damn this is pretty sexy.

Z3guy 01-06-2011 08:38 PM

exterior looks very upscale and dynamic. Interior looks like an e90. However, I doubt it will handle well.

C63 coupe is very interesting.....

StylinRed 01-06-2011 08:54 PM

the girth? look of it reminds me of the CTS Coupe (they dont look the same mind you hmm... i dont know how to explain it)

Audi now needs a A4 coupe.

and hopefully the c-class coupe is going to be affordable.

ae101 01-06-2011 09:06 PM

TT is a two seater roadster ( like the SLK and the Z4 )
A5 is a big luxury coupe like the Eclass coupe or the 6Srs.

A4 is in the same class as the 3Srs and C class

bing 01-06-2011 09:27 PM

to me the A5 is pretty much the A4 in 2 door - size and design wise.

back on topic, i think this C coupe is much nicer than the old one (lol the rear still kinda seemed like it got rear-ended but they hid it better this time *edit this is judging from the angle of the pics posted by original poster)

Energy 01-06-2011 10:06 PM

Mmm that coupe roofline works on that car.

RevRav 01-06-2011 10:21 PM

Looks great... but I think they could had matched some better rims with it...

A5 is just a 2 door A4. it is by no means a "big luxury coupe" like a 6er or E coupe

o rly? then why is it compared with big luxury coupes ? are you just saying that because it has the same engine as the A4? if so the C350 has the same engine as a ML350, The 335i has the same engine as a X5 3.5 . Just because they have the same engines doesnt mean there the same car, the A5 was made to be a competitor to the 6 series and the E class coupe, the only reason it has a 2.0T is so provide luxury with the option of good fuel economy ( how VW always does things) . The A5 is WAY roomier than the A4 and is WAY more expensive.

EmperorIS 01-06-2011 10:52 PM

too bad the interior will still feel and look like shit

What? I always thought A5 was competing with 3ers. I haven't seen any S5 vs. M6 comparisons before... Isn't it S5 vs. M3 instead?

o rly? is that why an a5 starts at 46k and a 650i starts at 95k? not to mention the fact that the E Coupe and 6er both come with many more features, and are also much more exclusive than the A5. and an A5 is actually not even close to being "WAY more expensive" than an A4. A similarly spec'd A4 is actually only $4000 cheaper BEFORE adding any options. If you take a look at the price difference between a 3 series sedan and coupe, it's around the same as well. just because you might have seen someone comparing the A5 and 6er online or in a magazine doesn't make them "competitors".

:failed:

donjalapeno 01-06-2011 11:27 PM

yeah i guess you have a point but i dont get why they made the A5 so big compared to 3srs and why they dont have a car to compete with the Eclass and the 6srs
