Ingolstadt’s favorite tuner; ABT has revealed its latest “four-ring” project. Based on the sexy Audi S5 coupe, the tuner has performed a number of improvements on the S5 including upgrades on the engine management system and the addition of an ABT compressor which help increase engine power output by 156HP, to a grand total of 510HP.
Called the AS5-R, the V8-powered coupe is also treated to a high performance braking system with 380 millimeter disc diameter, an ABT Coil-over suspension system and a set of 20-inch 5-spoke BR alloy wheels.
On the outside, it features a spoiler that accentuates the ABT grill as well as inner fender skirts and gill-shaped air inlets. At the rear end, the tuner has fitted a distinctive ABT rear skirt and a 4-pipe rear muffler.
Overall, the AS5-R reaches the 100 km/h mark in 4.5 seconds and will go on to reach a top speed of 292 km/h. Although with a power output of slightly more than half a thousand, the German tuning specialist also mentioned that the up-rated S5 maintains a fuel consumption figure that is almost similar with the stock Audi S5. All looks good for the AS5-R, but I think I will stick to a one-colour body finish.

i think the paintjob is nice and very simple. cant seem to understand why the word awkward is used by some of you.

Woohoooo………….! Another fast one from Audi! Love everything about it, from the wheels to the color! Simply outstanding!
German-made. My type of 4-wheeler!
Chiao!
510 bhp… now it exceed California 454bhp, V8 4.3 litre NA.. but not in acceleration & top speed… Paul, what's AS5-5 kerb weight? if not mistakan, the Ferrari is much heavier than the 'normal' Audi S5 coupe kerb weight, right?
This car is perfect. I'm thinking it's gonna be about $55,000, but it ain't nothing but $35,000. Perfect horsepower, perfect styling, perfect performance, perfect everything. I'm gettin' this
