    I agree with you 100%. I favor the red one on the car magazine cover

    To me the Car magazine version looks the more believeable. The black one in Vegas though similar to that of the A3 Clubsport, looks a little over the top.

    I know Car can get it wrong but on this occasion I hope they end up to be right for a change.

    Car Magazine's RS5 front look aweful, it's as bad as the RS6 front.
    The black RS5 mule look awesome like the TT-S.

    Hans,

    That's your opinion, as for me I prefer the CAR version, based of the photo evidence. Maybe my opinion will change once I have seen it for real.

    ARE YOU BLIND.... JK LOL hehehe...

    Everyone has their opinion. The opinions are pretty split up right now hehe. I just dont like the spyshot bumper because it's too TT-S like and it doesnt "flow" with the rest of the car. The CAR Magazine bumper looks aggressive and complements the overall "flow" of the front end.

    If you have seen the TT-S in real life and liked it, you will like the RS5 in real live.

    I didnt like the TT-S at first and even now in real-life I feel the front bumper could look better. The RS5's bumper is similar but I think it's better and looks great even in bad quality spypics.

    Yeah, I saw one in white sitting along side a beautiful R8, Sprint Blue with graphite alloys and carbon blade.

    Maybe the reason so many are preferring the RS5 version in CAR magazine is because it's a finished rendition instead of seeing an overly aggressive bumper on a stock S5.

    The car looks like a S5, but according to the photographer it did not sound like a S5.
    The front bumper is different with bigger air intakes presume that it's a test mule for the RS5.
    It will be competing with the new BMW M3 V8 and Mercedes-Benz C63.
    Just like other RS models the 5 will be developed by Quattro GmbH, Audi’s performance department.
    The RS5 will be a Quattro but engine wise there are still question mark's.
    Power will be 420+ hp (S5 has 354 hp).

    Another testmule.....perhaps S5 Evo though i think the Evo in itself is a testmule and not a production candidate.

    I hate that front bumper on the 5. (though it looks good on the TT/S/R)

    +1 the bomper in these spyshots doesnt mesh well with the rest of the car.
