A5 vs BMW 3 coupe
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/121922/a5_vs_3er_rear_view.1.jpg"></center><p>2 months ago BMW was my only choice BUT now? If AUDI prices are comparable to 3series coupe...it´s clear...vorsprung durch technik (und design)! BTW here in Czech rep. BMW importer(I mean, dealers participate) offers 5 years/100.000 km BMW basic services inclusive(oil,filters etc.)for all models from March 2007. (if it was only for coupe, i would ask WHY from March :-)) I wish AUDI to do the same. How it´s in US, guys?

We have some time to wait before we will see the Coupe here.
We have to pay extra for the 'Audi Advantage' but the price is not all that bad - only $500 (roughly). We're looking at the end of the year before we see the first A5/S5's arrive.

Re: We have some time to wait before we will see the Coupe here.
In Germany first deliveries expected in June, so in Czech July/August...but in June it should arrive to showrooms. Prices of most models Audi/BWM/MB are very similar here but on forums many people still says that Audi is only better VW (I hope they´re kidding) and that in rest of he world (except Europe) and especially in US it means nothing to BMW or MercedesBenz. So I want to ask you if it´s true and/or why?

Re: Pricing Predictions in US
Many are speculating on where the price will come down on the A5 models. I priced a 335i coupe to my specs (minus nav and active steering) resulting a a very well loaded configuration, coming to a little over 48k US. I am afraid a closely configured S5 will likely come to 8-10K more. At the usual $30 or so per $1,000 in price on lease payments that means up to $300 more per month. We shall see.
