Exactly. I had an Audi A5 prior to getting the IS and I popped in to the Audi dealership which was next door to have a look at the newer A5 and the S3 saloon. Both were nice cars, but as with most Audis they seemed still like a 90's car, curvy than angular. I would have had to wait until next March for either of the cars!!! The BMW was available within a month, but it didn't buy me as the Lexus did.
I do miss the power that my Audi had, but I have my eyes on the RC F (or the RC 200t) next 😄
