Audi has just released a short clio of the new RS5 Cabriolet driving in and around Mallorca. From scenic backdrops to classic architecture, this city has just the right mix of elements to set off the beauty of the RS5, especially on a sunny day.
Which brings us to very interesting point about the RS5 and all Audis in General. It's commonly believed that German cars are not very fun, that they've somehow become disconnected. But our little water cooler chats have revealed it could be the exact opposite.
Audi could have made the RS5 with some sort of turbocharged V6, but they didn't and as a result you get to listen to one of the greatest V8s ever made instead of turbo whistles. Yes the electric steering and the double-clutch gearbox disconnect you from the mechanical bits, but they make you a better driver.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
