There's not much of a selection of Audi's at my local dealer. I've driven a B7 S4 and a B8 S4 (both manuals). I'm looking at a used A5 3.2 s-line (manual), but it's not local.
What should I expect out of the A5? Power, handling, ride, etc relative to the S4's I've driven?
Thanks!

You can expect great acceleration in range of 5.8sec to 60mph, 100mph+ 1/4 mile and limiter at 132mph for top speed.
Great handling yet a hard ride with the S-Line suspension and the 19" wheels, I suggest you avoid potholes and/or stay out of bad road pavement.
You can get 30mph highway, 24 city/highway on average.
Great engine sound above 4000rpms to red line.
Great car for single individual or a couple with no kids.
