    Picked up this 2020 S5 Sportback in May and couldn't be happier! So far blacked out the front and rear badges and installed these Niche Essen wheels. will be using the Rotor wheels it came with for winters.

    there really is no comparison. The Giulia will go down as my all time favorite car! the power and handling was as close to a Ferrari experience as I will afford to get. It was a car that you would always look for excuses to go for a drive! Reliability was perfect for the 2 years I owned it (bought it used). There was never a time I was out driving that random people would not ask me about the car; which was a negative or a positive depending on how much attention you care for. Unfortunately it was not the best year round car living in Toronto with the winters and I needed something that was a daily for all seasons.
    As for the S5, there is an obvious difference in power and handling; The exchange is a far more refined build and overall quality of materials. The QV was a raw sports car, not many bells and whistles. It was all about the driving experience. The S5 is far more luxurious, however still feeling quite sporty and capable. Most notable difference would be on the highway; The QV had endless power no matter what speed you jumped on it, the S5 goes pretty good however not quite in the same league which would be obvious 505HP vs 349HP.

    The QV was a fun toy, the S5 is a fun daily.
