Hey guys,

I somehow stumbled over here after do some RS5 googling and seeing a post of mine copied here.

Anyway, I’m from Houston. Got this car about 4 months ago.

Welcome to the forum! Awesome car…

[sakimano]

That’s exceptionally awesome.

Love how puffy they look.

Only if they bought this car to the US in manual :’(

[sakimano]

DSG is excellent. Who cares?

the us is the only place on earth that seems to want to be slower and less efficient. Soon you won’t have a choice on ALL cars. I don’t even think you can get any of the current Ferraris with a manual transmission. Even the might Porsche 911 GT3 is auto only.

Life goes on.

The people who lament the decline of the manual transmission remind me of the archaic air cooled lovers on the 911 forums when the 996 was announced. It’s not a big deal, it makes the car better. Life goes on. People used to act like this about carbs and drive by cable too.

Is that a custom spoiler on the back?

stock RS5 spoiler

Because its boring and less fun

Coming from owning a manual s5, it is far from boring. The transmission is actually one of the most exciting parts of the car. The noises it makes when it shifts you will never get out of a manual.

Great car. Do you have any sound clips because my friend with a RS5 may want to try that?

Man, awesome color. Was this a stock option, or part of the Audi exclusive Club deal? Either way it’s surprising how subtle the color is, but yet how different it is at the same time.

Great lookin car and thanks for posting up over here.

[sakimano]

It’s a stock colour option I believe. Pretty cool.

Suzuka is interesting. Kinda like Ibis white if you turned down the lights on Ibis a little.

[cory_can]

^ I always find it difficult to distinguish Suzuka in pictures…looks like white perpetually sitting in the shade

[chrissurfr]

Here is a video of a cold start

[Paperybutnotplasticy]

Suzuka is actually a Breyer version of glacier white not ibis.
