I test drove an S4 (with V8) back when my DD was an E36 M3 and really didn't think much of it


The S5 received 3.5 stars (out of 5) in EVO issue 105. Excerpts from the article:

"And there is no denying the deep reserves of grip or the S5's fluent way of stringing together combinations of bends. Yet the process isn't nearly as involving as it is uniformly competent."

"The rewards for a press-on approach are measured out in ground covered for time elapsed rather than smiles per mile."

"It's hard to get it wrong in the S5, but rare to feel anything other than detached from the action."

"RS5 has to do better than this"
