But still … The installation of the «automatic» clearly shows how right they were in Audi, when they launched S5 with a mechanical transmission. “Mechanics” gives the car more masculinity and character — exactly what we value cars with the letter “S”. In addition, the automatic box affects speed indicators (with “automatic” S5 accelerates to 100 km/h by 0. 3 sec. longer). With Tiptronic, you can safely go in the sixth gear without “throwing” for lower gear and with confident traction-but stop, the same can be done with a mechanical transmission! So we advise you to take the S5 with manual transmission — besides, save £ 1400.
