Why do there seem to be several front seat designs in the A5? Is this S-line vs. non S-line? Milano vs. non-Milano? What gives?

Default non-sport seats. I believe Cinnamon is only available in milano leather.

I saw milano leather (Cinnamon) side by side with black leather (both non-sport seats) and the salesman and I could not tell the difference between the 2 leathers.

Default I was afraid of that...

I really like the sport seats, but I have my heart set on the cinnamon leather. I guess I can't have both, eh?

Default AudiUSA's website is misleading

If you go through the configurator and choose interior colors, it apparently shows sport seats for every available color, even though they're really only available in black. Kinda sucks...I'd been relying on that to know what my interior will look like.

Default Not in the US and Canada. I wanted sport seats in a light colour.

....no go. I had to take the regular leather in pale gray.

Default How much better are the sport seats?

They look a thousand times better, in my opinion. But are they a whole lot more comfortable? I ask because I'm a bit torn now...I really wanted the cinammon, but I also really like the look of the sport seats.

Default A lot of long trips? Get sport seats.

I've read some complaints of the standard seats only on long trips.
