I stand to be corrected, but I can’t recall of any Audi model in the last 20+ years that came to Canada and not the US or vice versa. Option differences aside, it’s a North American market.

I typically find silver a little bland but the S5 looks very good in Floret silver both in person and pictures. I was amazed how much I liked it when I saw one at the dealer.

I said they aren’t very good at anything and you said they’re not great at either and you beg to differ. If you live somewhere like the OP (Michigan) you shouldn’t temp fate with all season tires. ...

You should get a proper set of snow tires. A/S doesn’t stand for All Season but Always Shi##y as they aren’t very good at anything.

I thought I liked the stinger in the first shots I saw of it, but it’s not doing it for me in those pics. Possibly because they’re souped up rice versions, which is a polar opposite quality to what...

I’ve had S4’s in both. Ibis is almost blindingly white - especially when washing in direct sunlight. Glacier has a perfect name as it is deeper and has a bluish/grey tinge to it just like a glacier. ...
