2008 Audi S5

The next one will be a voluptuous, decadent four-seat grand tourer, the likes of which Audi has been itching to produce for the last 11 years, while it was attending to more serious business. With its all-new A5 and S5 coupes, the company is scratching that itch in grand style.

The S5 gets the same 4.2-liter V-8 engine as the S4, its four-door brother, making 350 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque.

It includes a 354-hp, direct-injection version of the 4.2-liter V-8 found in the S4 sedan, and knocks a full second off the zero-to-62 mph run.

The S5 has an even more aggressive sports suspension, bigger brakes, and unique exterior treatments that include aluminum-look mirrors, dual exhausts with four oval tailpipes, a rear deck spoiler, and different front and rear fascias. It rides on eighteen-inch wheels with 245/40-18 S-Design wheels, and includes the Xenon Plus headlight package (with those sexy LED daytime running lights). Inside, it has a sport wheel and sport seats, a grey instrument cluster, aluminum door sills, and special dash inlays.
