Thumbs down Audi Canada announces S5's expensive pricing: $66k

Yorkregion.com - Wheels - Audi announces pricing for all-new S5 Coupe

Compared with the US's $50k price tag, I hope that the A5 will be more reasonably priced.

That's rediculous. Over $15,000 more for the same car from the same foreign country.

Welcome to Canada!

Such BS and they know it. Has to do with some sort of trade agreement. And Audi has made sure that American dealers wont sell to us, we cant win.

Ouch.

Guess i'll be waiting a few years for the used ones to come up before even considering it. Too rich for my blood at this point but who knows maybe i'll come into some money by a stroke of luck haha

The 335Xi coupe (yes, the four wheel drive version is available in Canada now) is only $54k CAD.

Sure, I love the Audi more (the looks, the interior) but when it comes to being wise, the BMW is the better choice. I mean, both are very similar cars, probably competing in the same market, but one costs $12k more. Not to mention that BMW offers better percent APR and their 3.0L turbo is far more efficient than the gas guzzling V8.

Wow.....someone seems to have the wrong ideas about pricing. They may have successfully priced themselves out of the market. What on earth are they thinking? Not only that, but free trade is being restricted and that's unfair to the consumer. I guess the only decision one can make is to wait or get another model.

Personally, I just can't see spending that much on a car period. I might buy an older model and perform some upgrades on it but you will never but never catch me spending nearly $70,000 on a car.
