2012 Audi A5 consumer reviews

It's so nice it's like siting at home relaxing while you drive I love this car it is all that and a little more you can't even imagine what it is like till you get behind the wheel of one of these rides it's fast enuff to scare you and handles the road like it's not there

I don't think I'd ever own a car that's not an audi. I get compliments from everybody in this car and it is very fun to drive.

Bought my A5 Cabriolet because I have always had convertibles and this is the nicest on the road. Great design and great performance. I love it!

This car was awesome , when driven i felt snug and comfortable in the seats. Took curves very , car was very powerful even though it was a 4 cylinder . turbo

The exterior styling is sleek and sharp! It is a well built machine that not only has style but susbstance. It is comfortable and the Quattro is great for New England winters! Based on the reliability and high cost to fix Audi's I purchased an extended warranty. Do not buy an inflated warranty from the dealer but do your homework on the internet! You can save 50% or more!!!

Bought this car because i fell in love with the looks. Didn't know much about cars at the time or I would have probably opted for the s5 for the extra power. Aside from the 2.0t sometimes feeling sluggish, I have no real complaints with my car. Haven't had any issues whatsoever with the vehicle. Would definitely recommend for someone looking for a stunning, reliable and comfortable luxury coupe as a daily driver.

I was quite surprised at the comfort the Audi 5 provided and the safe features of the car's air bags, anti-lock brakes, and traction control. The sound level for a convertible was unusually low in the A5. The back seat is larger than most two door convertibles. And the trunk is spacious.

Feels like new even with 5 year old car, steering very soft and easy, turbo charged to accelerate from start, no major problems other than parking light malfunction attributed to sensor needed to change, nice that oil change only needed every 10 months.

The 2012 Audi A5 was very low mileage vehicle, excellent condition, and dealership was experience was great, which was replacing my son's car that he losted in an accident June 2016. He loves the car, which meets his budget, and the search engine really helped to narrow down his car preference, and also affordability.

I have a 2012 A5 Coupe, Sport model with 45K miles on it. -my first german car. but I was a Valet for two years during college and have driven every car imaginable. So from a handling perspective I have a decent perspective how different cars can feel. >Comfort: -Best seats I have ever had. Sport seats are Firm but comfortable. Easy to dial in my perfect position. Memory button is great. -Very quite ride. The sleek aerodynamics make for a very quite ride at high speeds. -A bit of a stiff ride due to the sport suspension and high performance tires. But that's what you get with any sport model coupe form any car maker. -interior ergonomics are fantastic for me; easy viewing outside the car (the backup camera is a must though) >Performance: -amazing handling. I have tested it at high speeds through the twisty mountain roads...you will immediately notice the great performance of the AWD. -Turbo: it's a quick car but not FAST like muscle cars , small amount of turbo lag in Auto, but not when switched in manual shifting. -AWD: you can drive in the snow without chains if you get all season sport tires!! which I eventually got. I drove in a snow storm in Tahoe, CA leading a long pack of cars following me through the storm...no chains required! >Reliability: -no mechanical issues so far with 45K miles. Had the Sunroof make a rattle noise; Audi fixed it by tightening a screw...no charge. >Styling: that's personal taste. But just look at it! I often get comments on how beautiful my car is from complete strangers. >Interior Design: -looks great and sporty. Solid quality feel. It's no Mercedes but does not feel cheep like another reviewer said. I have had friends say WOW, very cool. In response to the Trashy June 11, 2015 review from Las Vegas: -The exhaust is quite, so if that's your thing then replace the exhaust, which is very possible or buy another car. -No Blue tooth for music streaming, a bummer but not a deal breaker for me. The Smart Phone glove box connection is not preferable but works. I don't use it, but download all my music on 2 micro chips and use the 2 micro chip slots the car comes with...the chips hold a massive amount of music...easily all of my 20K songs. -Heated seats: they are a bit weak and will not cook you, but will get the job done. -Sunroof: it does not go back like most, it pops up a couple inches. I was told it's due to the limitations created by a very sleek roof design. Not a deal breaker for me and I have no regrets. Overal: this is a high quality, high performance german car with that german car feel some people really like. The high maintenance costs (when there are issues) that people complain about come with ALL luxury car makers. At this point I would buy another A5 and recommend one to a friend.
