Default A5 release date 1-half of 2007 / built exclusively in Inglostadt.

Prof. Dr. Martin Wintercorn:
________________________________________________

The A5 Coupe will mark the start of a new technical generation. Like the R8, the A5 opens up a new segment for Audi in which we will be considering various model versions. And the name has already been decided on: the Coupe will definitely be launched as the A5 - and the launch will be in the first half of 2007. And, one more thing I can also reveal to you is an important decision that has been taken regarding the production location: we will be building the A5 Coupe here in Ingolstadt.

What is a "release date". Cars in showrooms, or order guides go out?

1-half of 2007 for Euro, I wonder how long we have to wait for it.

Default Nov/Dec timeframe is most likely.

AoA VP said this calendar year.

Since R8 will start showing up around September, it makes sense for Audi to have a late 07 launch in order to maximize media coverage.
