Default Aren't the only differences the headlights and the honeycomb treatment around the fogs on the A5?

I still think they need a different grille for S-Line B8 A4 and A5 cars.

I agree - front end looks mean. Lower air intakes are very nice.

Default You can't see the different shape of the fog area between the two?

The A5 also has a uninterrupted crease extending from the A-pillar all the way down to the bottom of the front bumper.

Default I see those. But IMHO, it's a toss up since what defines more sporty or aggressive is up to...

the individual. Overall, they're pretty close.

Default You're looking at an A4 S-line vs a regular A5

This is an A5 S-line. Note the slight difference in the fogs and the shape of the lower part of the front.

Everything is pretty close except for the lower air intakes. Both look good.
