Did your last car have more power than the 2.0T

You can't be serious. The V8 sounds sweet, and it's far from TOO loud. That's why you'll see a million exhaust threads on here. A lot of people want to hear more of that V8. The engine is sweet and I can easily hear my B&O system or have a normal conversation.
I also don't mind the seats and have had no issues with long drives.
To each his own, but I don't think many would agree that the S5 engine is too loud.

I just think the people complaining about the exhaust noise are obviously have made the wrong selection of car. If I wanted a quiet V8 I'd get that boat called ... whatever luxu boat box car you recommend.
That's even funnier people buying aftermarket exhaust complaining they are too loud? WTF, you just bought an after market exhaust, idiot, clearly, you are into performance. Do, you go to the race track, and tell the teams there cars should be quieter?
It's like buying Harley and then complaining it's too noisy, huh?

Few harleys have stock exhaust. For some reason the harley riders strive for early onset of deafness, for both themselves and innocent bystanders.
And the cops let them get away with it, while stopping cars that are only half as loud as these two-wheeled behemoths.

335i vs A5 2.0t
you need to drive the A5 2.0t. There is a huge difference in power. My best friend has a 335i and we have raced around a bit. I have a 3.2 A5 and i can not keep up with him very well. I have driven his car and it is much faster than mine. 335i 0-60 is under 5 seconds per road and track. A5 2.0t is about 6.7 seconds. Just for the record a .3 difference is significant. if you are worried about power get the 3.2 engine
i like my A5 much better though.
