German car tabloid Auto Motor und Sport has what it claims to be the first real A5 photo, complete with preliminary specs.

The article states that the A5 will be a large 2+2 GT coupe slotted between the A4 and A6, with initial engines ranging from a 1.6 liter 4 cylinder to a 3.6 liter V6.

Below is the magazine's German text crudely translated into english:

AUDI A5 Coup?: The lock-up

Hardly another mark moves as fast as AUDI: New models, more emotional Design and a technology, which originate in the future from A4 to A8 from a component system. First harbinger of this philosophy: AUDI A5 the Coup?.

Starting from at the end of of 2007 that will close AUDI A5 Coup? the gap between A4 and A6. However not as classical sedan, but as momentumful 2+2-Sitzer-Coup? of the 4.60 meter class, which combines the sporty Attituede with a breath luxury.

For propulsion in the A5 first only six cylinder engines (3,2 and 3,6-Liter-Direkteinspritzer) provide, in the A4 come also a new four-cylinder generation with 1,6 to two litres capacity and turbo-loading. Without the combination of turbo and compressor as with the Konzermutter VOLKSWAGEN one will do with AUDI.<ul><li><a href="http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/d/103559">The original German article</a></li></ul>
