Buying Advice
The 2013 RS 5 comes with an all-wheel drive. Its well-equipped base trim offers a number of features such as a panoramic sunroof, three-zone automatic climate control, leather heated seats, and more. That said, we think you should still opt for the Driver Assist Package for more safety and driving aids.
