Hey guys, I'm thinking of upgrading my daily (S3 8L) with something from this century.
So I was thinking S5, but after doing a little research I'm starting to heavily consider the S-line A5 3.0TDI as well. As it can push near-400HP / 800nM without much mods and leave the S5 in the dust. Sure I lose the S5 badge and the sound of a N/A V8, but the cost wise it might just be the better decision for a daily. I want to keep i under 20k€ total - so if I take the TDI, 20k should also cover all the performance mods. Also I read that with the TDI I should go for manual transmission and a sports diff(how common are those in Germany?).
Sure there is S5 facelift with even more power potential, but now we are talking 30k€+
What do you think? Any input is appreciated.
P.S. What's new in A5 Facelift TDI?
