Hey ya'll - got a little car inquiry for ya

So with the market the way it is right now I've seen some pretty good deals at the stealerships. That coupled with my ever increasing want of a new vehicle, I've decided to start shopping for something. I've narrowed my choices (at the moment) to the following 3 cars:

S5
RS-4 (used)
TT-S

Pretty different cars I know and yes, they are all Audi's I just reallllly love the styling of em and could not find a comparable luxury car that really struck my fancy. Now I've heard very good things about the S5 and after sitting in one at the Audi Drive Experience (they only let us drive the 2009 A4), I thought it had one of the nicest interiors ever. The V8 would be a fun thing to have as I haven't had a big engine in quite a while. Not toooo concerned about mileage as my company reimburses.

Same thoughts go to the RS4, which is a more subdued car (in looks) but is much faster than the S5 and TTS. The interior on this one is not my most favorite (navi needed to be up higher IMO) but its seats and stuff are still nice looking. Exterior is great...I've loved the B7 A4s.

Now the TTS is much more of a sports car (small, fast, handles great, etc) but this is brand new so not much I guess is known. Plus dealers probably wont be willing to "deal" on this as its still brand new to the market.

So my question is does anyone have any thoughts about these vehicles? Good? Bad? Etc? I honestly haven't test driven any of them and I plan on doing that in about 1.5 weeks once I start vacation from work. Right now Im just still in the initial research phase

Thanks in advance for any info!
