2013 Audi A5 Prestige review, start up - In 3 minutes you'll be an expert on the Audi A5 quattro.
Although technically not a Prestige, it sort of is the same as a Prestige and here is why: The main feature of the Prestige is the fabulous Bang and Olufsen Sound System, which this car has as a stand alone option. Also, you get the Audi MMI Navigation_Plus Package with HD radio, streaming Bluetooth and rear camera. This car has that package also. By the way, this car also is a Premium Plus Package with xenon/LED lighting, heated seats, homelink, etc. This does not have the adaptive headlights or lane departure feature that is in a Prestige, but it does have some features that the Prestige does not have: This Ibis White A5 quattro has 19 inch 10 spoke wheels as opposed to the 18 inch wheels on the Prestige. This also has perhaps the most desirable_option of them all and that is the incredibly comfortable sport seat package plus sports suspension, plus paddle shifters, items that are above and beyond the Prestige model. This also has Audi Advanced Key, plus it has never been smoked in and it was just traded in on a new Infiniti as opposed to an auction car dug up from some repossession sale. There are PLENTY of A5 coupes available at any given time, this just happens to be the one you want.
From Edmunds.com:
In the five years since its introduction, the Audi A5 has remained one of the most attractive coupes on the road. To maintain that standing, the 2013 A5 has received a little nip and tuck. Thankfully, all of the exterior's sleek styling is intact, with only a subtle sharpening here and there.
Most notably, the headlights and grille have been restyled to match the angular design language that Audi has adopted. Interior revisions are less obvious, with only small changes to the steering wheel, gauges and illumination. More significant is the availability of Audi Connect, which delivers more Web functionality to the navigation system and also establishes a WiFi hotspot.
This minor freshening is a testament to how good the Audi A5 was to begin with. Besides the sexy outward appearance, the A5 boasts a comfortable ride, confident handling, a classy yet understated cabin and admirable fuel economy. For those who prefer an open-top experience, the A5 convertible will satisfy, and it does so without the usual pitfalls of compromised refinement or reduced cargo capacity.
In terms of power, the A5's turbocharged four-cylinder might seem outclassed by the six-cylinder engines of its rivals. But in reality, the A5 is only marginally slower under full acceleration. For the few who want more power, the Audi S5 and Audi RS 5 offer both more performance and crisper handling.
Overall, we think the A5 will satisfy a broad spectrum of drivers. Even against the BMW 3 Series, Infiniti G37 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Audi remains a compelling choice, offering the athleticism of the BMW and Infiniti that's balanced with the luxury of the Mercedes. The 2013 Audi A5 proves that it's more than just a pretty face. 2013 Audi A5 review. 2014 Audi A5 review. 2016 Audi A5 review. 2015 Audi A5 review. 2017 Audi A5 review. 2018 Audi A5 review.
