What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Audi A5 / S5
| Price of the Audi A5 / S5: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual AWD | More expensive than competitors |
| 2009 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual AWD | Price is too high. The quality of the car when taken to the test, does not justify the price. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD | Expensive base price as compared to a 335i (but still less than a 650i). Horrible leasing factors leave buying as the only real option. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Too much money for some. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | A little too high, but worth it |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Volvo S40
| Price of the Volvo S40: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed manual FWD | We bought ours used with only 18k miles on it. It was about 50 percent off the MSRP of a new 2010. A friend was surprised that we paid about the same she did for her Hyundai. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Price was reasonable and there were good discounts. |
| Price of the Volvo S40: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 218hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Even with substantial discounts, the price is on the high side, and there is little support from Volvo for good finance deals or leases. |
| 2006 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 218hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Expensive vehicle...paying for the name. |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 218hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Volvos are pricey and they depreciate very fast. This is a good thing if you buy a three year old car, like I did. I feel like I got a good deal by buying used. I would never buy a new Volvo. Volvo pricing is a la cart, so every item costs extra. |
