I can't believe that the E350 actually has more than the A5, if for no other reason than how much of a freak show the E coupe is, A5 should be on top here!!!! I'm gonna' go puke.

you are quite right. That is why i post it here. I just wanna hear some negetive opinions about the A5. I am a Mercedes (and i am four..), i dont wanna turn to A5 just because it has a pretty look.
S5 is too much for me. As far as i am concerned, i don't need a V8 engine. 3.2 FSI or even a 2.0T is enough for me~

In that case, I would get the E coupe...Lots of advanced features and you don't have to deal with Audi depreciation.
The 2.0T is a great motor, for my GTI, but I think it's small for an A5.
Even if one had to pedal the Audi like a bicycle, it would still be superior to the E coupe. Hell, a skate board is superior to the E coupe.
You'll see me rolling in pow pow POWER WHEELS, before an E coupe. If the latter happens, every one in Hell is wearing ice skates.
Wow, sounds like your ex gf designed the new e-coupe....lots of hate, lol.
Lots of the new german car designs need to grow on people...kinda like the monstrosities ala chris bangle.
It will look better and better...give it time.
The A5 is a beautiful design, though I would only consider it if I was leasing...Audis depreciate around 50% in 3 years, maybe less.
You bring up a good point, some 'newer' designs did grow on me, but not too many. The original 'face lift' of the BMW 7 series eventually grew on me, even considered getting one, love that car. The 'NEW' face lift on the 7 series is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen, right there in 'E Coupe' territory. I mean it looks like a dude's shaft, on wheels, and I don't mean in a cool BAT-MOBILE way.
Eventually the M models for the 3 series / 5 series grew on me - overall I think they lost a lot of soul undergoing the face lifts. I think there are more older Mercedes than newer ones that I really like, if even just to look at - older cars, not just Mercedes, have a more...'raw' element. They're more...provocative.
Same goes for BMW, when I see an e46 M3 I say, WOW - nice bimmer, when I see the new M, I say...nice, but space age garbage compared to the e46.
Of course it's a mash up of good and bad. Don't know what it is, seems some cars/lines get nicer with age/new design, and others just reverse the process of evolution. I.E. When I see an E-Coupe, I see a family member of the Pontiac Aztek.
