The Audi A5 Sportback is the third incarnation of the A5 model, following the Cabriolet and the Coupe. With a silhouette almost coupe-like due to a tapering roofline, the Audi A5 Sportback affords a very impressive seventeen cubic feet of luggage space with this increasing to 34.6 cubic feet with the back seats folded down.
Despite this, the Sportback is a comfortable four-seater with decent legroom and headroom.
The engines used for the range are all of the direct injection type and all comply with the EU5 emission standards. Initially, there will be three diesel and two petrol type engines available. A newly-developed ESP control which features an electronic differential lock fitted to the forward axle provides increased steering response making it a safer drive.
The drive select dynamic driving system developed by Audi lets the driver pick different modes that can influence things such as throttle response and shift points.
The UK will see the arrival of the car in October, with prices starting at £27,140 for the two-litre TDI SE version of the vehicle.

The Lexus IS Convertible is an incredibly luxurious car. It’s nothing at all like the old SC convertible.
This sleek car looks much sexier, and it’s got everything a great convertible should have. The hardtop can actually open or close within 21 seconds, and when it’s closed, the car looks like a coupe.
There will be two different versions of the 2010 Lexus IS Convertible: one is a 250C sports car that features a 204 horsepower, 2.5 litre V-6 engine, while the other, the 350C, can provide 306 horsepower and has a six-speed automatic transmission. The convertible is also a two door instead of a four door, with each door longer than those found on most sedans. Other tweaks to the IS Convertible

The 2010 Ford Mustang GT is sure to make heads turn.
The car features a brand new Mustang body that builds upon the classic so that it looks both brand new and yet keeps that distinctive Mustang look. The standard coupe model features a 210 horsepower 4.0 litre V6 engine, so you know it’s got the get up and go. Of course, if you want more speed, you can always go for the more powerful (and expensive) V8 version that pumps out 315 hp.
Convertibles are also available, giving drivers the option of speeding down the open road with the top down and the wind in their hair. The 2010 Mustang is priced competitively with other comparable cars, too, which is great news for those looking for a cool car on a budget.
