Gorgeous, no doubt. What's the MSRP for one of these things again? I'm too lazy to look it up. Good luck with your S5!

Putting the G37 to shame, Im not too sure about.... The car itself costs about 15K more, and for a V8, its not even that fast. Beautiful car, but its in a different segment than the G37. Good luck tho with your future car...

Looks way to much like a bmw 335i nothing spectacular about it. well since its an S5 looks to much like the new M. quad pipes rear lights the list goes on. Dont car companies know how to make cars look different? Guess not.

4.5sec/13.1 qtr. mile is ok for this segment. Overall the S5 is nice. I considered getting one. But at over 50K it is beyond what I want to pay for one. I think it is slightly overpriced.

At 60-65K w/ options it should put out better numbers for sure. The number "13" shouldn't appear at all in the 1/4 mile results... LOL

Well, considering it's $20k+ more than the G37, I'd rather have an S5 as well if money weren't a factor. I'm not really sure how one can compare the two cars.

Very nice, congrats. I think the S5 is in a different league though. A far bigger engine than our cars and not to mention the price tag. Hopefully the sale of your G will cover most of the expense.
