Does Anyone know what this new option is that just popped up for the S5? I've searched High and low and I can't find anything about it.

Interesting find... Maybe this is the Torque Vectoring tech?

Wait a second! Is Audi S5 Quattro or no?

 

[shervinf]

S5 is Quattro, but this is something in addition to the regular Quatro! I saw something in the S4 Specs today, I'll let you know if I find anything else on it. They did intersitingly enough annouce that the S4 will be available with the 7 speed S-Tronic Transmission in March.

Wow - could this mean Audi "might" introduce S Tronic for S5 may be toward the end of 09 production - perhaps late Spring?

that would be the ultimate...

you get the V8, drive select, the DSG, and you rule! Especially since the 2010 is going back to a 6 cylinder. Makes the v8 that much more special.

I'm praying to the AUDI gods for that to happen soon! My car hasn't gone into production yet, and it would be great to get S-Tronic instead of Tip-Tronic!!! (I live in traffic city, stick is not an option :-( )

I'll be praying for you and me that this willl happen. In fact, I am thinking about deferring my order until there is some sign that this could happen.
