Police are looking for an $80,000 Audi coupe stolen from a Houston dealership after a test drive.

The gray 2014 Audi RS5 disappeared about 11:30 a.m. Oct. 17 from Audi West Houston, 11850 Katy Freeway, Houston police said.

A man in his 30s came into the dealership to look at some vehicles and test drove one, said Houston Police Department spokesman Kese Smith said.

After the test drive, the man was with the salesman in his office.

"The salesman left to speak with the manager, and the suspect took the keys to the vehicle and drove off," he said.

A witness who saw the man take the keys said he appeared to signal another man who was driving a white Range Rover, and the two men left at the same time, Smith said.

The dealership is offering a $5,000 reward for the return of the car or information leading to a conviction, an employee said.
