Actually there were very few winning silver (champagne) s5 models with a burgundy/plum interior. IT is not as red as the s4 burgundy, almost purple. It kinda looks good, but I dont think I could deal with it on a daily basis.

 

Oh noes I can't decide! I like whatever I have. Let me "borrow" all the others and test them then I'll get back to you.

*edit* just to make the polls even I voted for the S5.

 

were you trying to describe my car? Because you did a pretty damn good job, except for the bumper part, it's alright just a bit faded. I haven't had any experience with an s5 either driving or working on it so I can't say, asthetically though I like both when done up right

 

Gayer isn't a word... neither is gayly.

 

S4 wins for a track car and S5 wins for a street car.

 

Also, I might be a newb to this site, but ur a newb to your stock piece of ****...

^ What the hell is that?

 

I owned one of the cars you're talking about, it also had the 2x2 rear seats.
The interior was ugly as all hell.

 

Actually the shells weigh the same, so as a track car the S5 is better, because they'll weigh the same stripped out and it has the better engine, making it faster.

 

Failed attempt at a middle finger. The problem is, is that the thumb is missing. Also, the proposed middle finger looks deflicted.

wtf does that have to do with the s4 FC vs s5 FC discussion?

 

Well obviously, but this is an S4 vs. S5 discussion.

 

in my opinion, S5 styling > S4 styling, and S4 build quality > S5 build quality.

 

From my dash I have random belt flashing light, ticking from the bottom passenger side of the dash.

The ticking is ******* annoying, and I mean it. i can't figure out what the hell it is I posted here before no one answered, sometimes it happens when the belts "try" to move since their broken, but sometimes its when you start the car, etc.

Overall I like everything about the s5 better, including the door panels. 6" speakers sound better than the 4" dash ones. I never did like the cheap-looking s4 Vert speakers up high on the door panels......looked like an engineering department afterthought IMO. I do however prefer the s4 radio bezel over the s5. Every one of the s5 bezels warp and bow at the top and bottom after just a few years. I actually bought a new s4 bezel and put it in my s5 GXL. Most of the s4 bezels cracked because most people that have tried to remove them don't know about the 2 hidden screws behind the vent grille and they give it a yank. Here's my s5 with s4 bezel....

 

s5 for me. a lot closer of a poll than i would have expected though.

 

Simply because of what Juiceh alluded to. There are more s4's, therefore more s4 owners, therefore more s4 owners on Rx7club.com... And yes, therefore the poll will be biased towards the majority's personal cars.

Two of my Rx7's... s4 GXL vs. s5 GXL. Not a pure comparison, but a good one. The picture was taken with the intention to show the differences between the two relatively "upgraded" stock Rx7's--or the two different directions one could go. The first has s4 trim and the subdued body-lines, I.E. sport-spoiler, aero-package in front of the rear-wheels, closed sunroof etc. Sadly the photo doesn't show the *new* s4 front lip it has, (offered by Corksport), which is also awesome and very subtle. The s5 on the other hand has the agressive s5 rear-spoiler, offset by the MS front-lip and the popped sunroof. All it's missing are the stock s5 turbo side-skirts...

 

^ Black S5.

Actually both cars look great.

 

I'd sig that, but I already got yelled at once because my damn sig was too big.

 

Well I just picked up an S4. So I have both an S4 and S5. Although, my S4 is probably in better overall shape than my S5. (with the exception of a dent on the driver side rear quater panel) But in a S4 vs. S5 competition, I would say stock to stock I like my S5 better.
