No, your tranlastion is not correct, here is a better translation:
Audi is pleased to confirm that the Audi A5 will be headed to production. This car continues Audi's tradition of offering style, form, and quality in a sporting chasis.
The first thing you will notice is the styling. Yet another bastardization of the TT look that everyone is getting tired of. To accent the car's lines, Audi will not be painting the lower 3 feet of the car, and instead offer plastic side molding, as first shown on the new A4.
Audi's tradition of sporty engines continues with this newly updated turbocharged engine. By increasing the displacement on the 1.8t up to 2.5 liters, Audi engineers were able to boost hoarsepower from 170 up to 173! And the torque is increased as well to a total of 180 foot pounds! And in the interest of safety, Audi has installed a transponder that will notify AoA if the A5's engine ever produces any more than the specified 173hp.
Audi is a stong believer that a car's interior should feel like home. Since very few Americans have MP3 players in their homes, Audi has decided to not offer the car with an MP3 compatable stereo. And since very few homes have gauges, Audi will cut even more gauges from their insturment pod. Now the drive only has to worry about the speedometer and fuel gauge.
All this technology has been added to the A5, while only increasing the weight of the car by 4340 pounds over the A4's weight.
