Nothing will ever be more epic or nicer sounding than Audi's old turbo 5 cylinder cars! An absolute heritage that still inspires! Thank you Audi!
nothing compares to free breathing V8s !
Maybe an old Audi turbo 5 cylinder with Walter Rohrl behind the wheel?
Volvo for life.
@@bonosimic532 that's your opinion
True sooooo true
quattro changed the image of the Audi.
Well you know it always had 4 rings, maybe 4 a reason?
@@KHos73 No, the four rings comes from Auto Union, the company that formed in 1932, when Audi and three other German automotive manufacturers was merged into one umbrella company. Four rings for four different companies.
@@TheRedSphinx Was, echt mal? :)
@@KHos73 What's what?
the s1 group b rally car was the greatest car in the history of automobiles everything after that was a waste of time and a bore
5 banger cylinder turbo & Quattro, 500++ hp on Group B. Makes even better, legend never die.
Absolutely the reason why I love this brand so much. People just don’t understand the history. Bravo, Audi.
MrRecon93 each brand has its own history, BMW also made history with a 1500hp 1.5L engine
Victor Estrada OG of course. I respect all brands. Audi just does it for me. Especially how they rose after total destruction in ww2.
Same with BMW lol and how they started from the beginning. I love Audis as well, bimmers, audis, and subis reign over my area cause of AWD, but to me bimmers do it cause of handling and performance efficiency
Its different when the engine produces 1500HP for one qualifying lap................
ellasOLE22 probably because they knew nothing about such high numbers, they didn't even have a way of measuring that much. But they also used it with lower power to win other races, and there were different revisions of that engine
"It has 5 cylinder engine"
"A WHAT?!"
So does it have a 4-banger or a straight-6?

Audi, then Volvo, not much later VW used them and, the car and motor nobody ever seems to remember. The Acura Vigor...the mid level model that was essentially a slightly stretched Accord with a longitudinal straight five cylinder engine. It was replaced by the TL
4 is too small, 6 is too bulky.
@@firefoxussr31 A 5 cylinder engine.
This whole video gives me goosebomps
Tesla
Shadow Company Is a Joke of a "car" company.
yioo1a11z1ze.4
15:25 Goosebumps right about there for sure :)
Shadow Company they’ll be lucky to be around in 5 years at the rate they’re burning money
This is, of course, a 17.44min commercial...
...but it's one of the best ones I've ever seen!
Walter R on that Pike's peak run. Holy Mother of God.
You should see some more of the footage of that run and some more AWD Pike's Peak footage BEFORE they paved the whole course! Amazing.
Walter is a God!
True, that 5 cyl is just legendary with quattro system it's just perfect, tears dropped when talking about the audi s1 in pikes peak.

Imagine if you got the oppurtunity to sit in it .. what a moment that was !!
Please bring back the original Quattro from the 80's! Those wheel arches and sharp lines are just pure beast
bugjuicer That would be cool
I would be happy if they would just bring back some parts so I could keep mine running.
I would go robbing banks if they would to sell UR or typ 89 Quattros again
@@Kulric Yes I could use some Plastic turn signal lights and the door belt trim on 1987 Audi GT's I drive. Hope to find them one day.
bugjuicer and a 5 Zylinder Engine with a manual gearbox !
In my opinion the 5 cylinder is the best sounding engine ever build!! ❤️😍 I hope this engine will NEVER die out... 😌
car addicted
Agreed!
And what about v10 ... it screams like nothing else in the world... like two 5cyl. ;)
too farty and unharmonious.
Crossplane V8 sounds better. But the Inline-5 is a better compromise according sound and fuel consumption.
@@menju32 a V8 makes you grin but that good old symphony of the turbo charged inline 5 is just out of this world
The old school Audi are clean af love the vintage image
Best advertisement ever brought tears to my eyes
What? You make me laugh
that 5 cylinder scream of the sportquattro is the whole reason i love audi so much.
My lifelong dream has been to own an Audi 5 cylinder car.i don't have kids so this would be like a child to me 😅 I come back to this video every few months to remind myself what I'm working towards. To all Audi fans, Love from SA ❤
If you can find a 1992- 1994 S4 or a 95/96 S6 you will surely enjoy it. I have a 94 S4 and I chipped and and put a performance exhaust on it.
It is a great car and I have been replacing parts the last 4 years. Most of the original parts lasted. 25 years. I still have the original clutch.
I think you could get a nice one for $10k.
I just bought an audi 90 quattro sat for 15 years finally picked it up for 250 USD very excited to see it drive
@Gnofg Those cars are very hard to get in Cape Town, will keep a lookout though. Thank You !!
Man do it! It’s always been a sound that amazes me. Lucky enough to have had 2 RS3’s & they put a smile on my face every day.
Incredible video, gave me goosebumps. I own two of those classic inline 1-2-4-5-3 engines in my 1991 Audi 200's both making ridiculous horsepower.
I know you do I watched your videos. you have some cool ones
amdisthebest
hey amdisthebest, I've seen you on neffmoto. love the videos! I have a 91 200 20vt avant with a gt35 :P and AMD is the best, running a Ryzen 1600x and R9 fury hahaha
I own several Audi 5 cylinders Including 3 1987 Audi GT's. People look at them when they hear me coming or playing in a curve. I love all of them and still have the first Audi I owned a 1984 Quattro sedan that I hope to bring back as a driver before I die. Nothing else sounds like the 5 cylinders even today.
I cannot stop laughing at the Mr. Mooney toy in the back window
The little guy on the rear window that was mooning people was so funny! That enginenuity just makes love audi
This gives me chills
Does anyone else think Ulrich sounds like Arnold Schwarzeneggar? Lol
Well, they are both Austrian, so the accent would be the same.
Yes haha
Did not expect to watch the whole thing, nicely done.
I found this video VERY moving! I read about and saw these five cylinder and quattro cars when they were new. I've driven a few, and watched many in rallies. This video captures the essence of these things perfectly! Well done, Audi, well done!
So glad I purchased a 2018 RS3... Masterpiece
my friend is thinking of buying one as well.
I so envy you. I owned an a 5 cyn. Audi 90 and loved it. The RS 3 5 popper is a total killer. Hang onto it and it in the future will bring you stupid amounts of monry.
Man wished I could, my dream vehicle is a Audi RS6 avant. Those wagons, let alone…V8? twin turbo?AWD? And a wagon? Yes please.
Gave me goose bumps. Bought my first Audi in 1981 The Audi Coupe with the 5 cylinder and Quattro drive. Forty years later and six Audi's I'm still in love. I have three. My 1997 APR A4, 2016 SQ5 and 2018 RS3. Apart from my truck i wont own another brand.
Great video! This is the first time I ever watched a video that began as an advertisement on another video. I'll say it again, what a fantastic video.
I love Audi even more . I can’t wait to get my A5 😭.
Thank you Audi for creating the 5 cylinder. I particularlly loved the Audi 5000 diesel. So unique!!
Like everyone has said, what an incredible video. So cool to see Audi go through the history of the ever amazing 5 cylinder. From its beginnings to the new products now. I currently own a new RS3 and love every second of the car. Such an amazing sound! Vorsprung Durch Technik!
It was those racing series of the 1980's that made me fall in love with Audi and Quattro
aaaaaahhh. My dad once had a 5 Cylinder with upgraded internals and twin turbo ahhhh miss it so much. Sadly it got stolen and used in many robberies. The result was a total melted S6, they had burnt it up by the docks. I don't get way police don't check places like that. like every mafia film burns a car under the bridge or by the docks. Hint hint...
400hp 3.9sec S6 rest in peace :( you will always remain one of my favorite engines in my heart i WILL AVENGE YOU!
THE WHISTLING QUATTRO LEGEND.....GREAT FOOTAGE!
One of the most legendary engines ever built!
This whole video gave a greater appreciation for the technical prowess of the AUDI GROUP!!! This is by far my favorite video!!!!
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE THEY GOT THE MUSIC FOR THIS VIDEO?????. The music in parts 4 and 5 of this video is INCREDIBLE!!!
would love to know that myself actually...been searching production music sites for quite a long time now... using it as my 7A/MC maintenance motivation music.. I dont think its Media Ventures or Remote Control Productions..but ya never know - very Balfe-esque
Damn man im also after what ive named the "audi theme" that damn song appears in almost every video from the 80's from audi taking on rally, now its also featured in the latest video uploaded to the motul official channel but still i cant find its name.
Dear Audi
Your 5-cylinder engine is a masterpiece of engineering. Please transform the RS3 into a 6 speed MANUAL TRANSMISSION. If Porsche 911R can do it, so can you Audi. Pls don't make me wait any longer. Cheers.
Completely agree! Nothing like the pleasure of a manual gearbox to give the driver more control. The shifts may not be as quick, but a very worthwhile compromise.
The 8j TT-RS had the option of the MQ-500 manual gear box. The simple fact of the matter is DSG is quicker.
RS3 8P had the 6 speed as well. Just tune a 8P RS3 and it's up to par with the newer ones if they were manuals.
MrZyLeXx interested know where you have seen an 8p RS3 with the MQ-500 gearbox instead of the DQ-500. Not a single one left the factory a manual gearbox.
Here in sweden we have a few im pretty sure, driven the first gen TTRS with the 5cyl as a manual. I might be wrong though but im pretty sure i've seen them. Throw me under the bus if im wrong.
This video makes me realize just how special this engine is. That's why I can't wait to get an RS3 next year. Just to make things even more special, I want mine in Nogaro Blue
I have a 97 cabriolet, puts a smile on everyone's face 5days a week in my way to work.
This video was the reason I flew up to Sacramento. I just had to get my hands on a 1993 URS4 and boy what a blast it was to drive home. 400miles and not a single problem. Audi is more than a manufacturer. Its a lifestyle that I'm thankful to be a part of.
I have a ‘94 S4
5 cylinder Is the sound of my life
this video gives me so many chills. So incredible
One word. Beautiful.
@ 7:11 The guy in the middle flips off the camera.
Saw that haha
I miss the 1-2-4-5-3 sound, I had them for years, but my quattros now have V8s in them (and one big VR6). Makes me want to get B3 sedan and build a 2.6L 7A for it.
Audi is legend
Audi,, please come back in to WRC,,,,
sandy putra bj
Yeah, I don’t see that happening. No business model for it. When they ran before the Killer B class, which they pretty much created, was still around. Those monsters are gone. Audi has moved up market with cars and racing as well. Completely dominating the 24 Hours of Lemans how many years in a row? Even when Bentley one those were really just open cockpit Audi’s. Not even Subaru or Mitsubishi run WRC factory teams anymore and VW has been walking away with the series with the Polo.
No room and no reason for Audi to drop back onto the dirt and gravel now.
@Dean McAndrew They're not in the WRC they withdrew, they only sell R5 cars for customers who want to use them. As far as the official team, it doesn't exist anymore.
Stefan Petrov well, we do have Toyota gazoo racing back with their Yaris
@@svensik4858 Ye i know, was talking about VW
That 5 cylinder sound gives me goosebumps ... starting my RS3 sedan every morning .. gets my day off to the best start ..👌
Well done Audi, great documentary for a great car company.
You no your watching something old when someone is sat smoking in a brand new audi inside a building 😂
I will forever drive only audi
Vw now sorry
@@aleksanderblinn4492 Who cares?Audi is still a great brand
@@harrierpilot2217 it indeed is
I was shocked to hear that VW own bentley Audi lamborghini porsche among others. All my fav brands. Nothing wrong with VW. They were two brothers anyway Vw and audi
@@dishy2304 well lambos aint what they used to be they are now drivable and practical which i hate. The murcielago is probably the best lambo as it was designed by lambo and mid way vw bought them and added in some of that common sense so you get the best of both worlds.
I miss my technically legal European model MK1 Audi TT with a 5 cylinder swap. I also gave it QUATTRO AWD and a later model spoiler on the hatch. Mine was bright blue and had Audi Ronal OEM Snowflake wheels.
Fantastic film!
Much respect for Audi. Big admiration for Rohrl...
Speechless, great video!
Quattro - Über alles!
Absolutely awesome! Goosebumps and shivers. Check out that footwork...
Thank You so much for that film! A passion for keep that legacy is in me.
Audi Quattro S1 engine is the best engine sound I ever heard in any car and I say with confidence that that's the best engine sound in the history of combustion engines.
I am 21 years old, my first car is an audi a4 b5 1.8 t, until the end of my days I will be with the audi brand and I will never leave it.
Great video! Audi must keep the 5 Cylinder in its line up👍🏾
I wish they would.
I love Audi and Audi 5 cylinder❤ It's very nice story here, and thank You very much!!! But I miss Michèle Mouton in this story😏😔
I know. They didn't mentioned her 1985 Pikes Peak win which made her the first and ONLY Queen of the Mountain.
So with just some research the average yearly wage in the early 70's was $50,000+. The Audi 5000 costed around $49,000. It also had 160ish HP, and cars around that era had low 100 to the bigger motors having a reported "300hp." So for the money you where getting a not only luxury, comfortable car, and afordable car, you where getting a competitive car, and with how easy it is to work on because of it's size you could tune in anyway you see fit, and im more then sure get another easy 100hp out of it and could have smacked novas all day long with it. Audi did, and still knows how to make cars.
Zack Hines audi is no longer affordable. It is premium brand and coś like one. They put those engines in a familly saloon and now you have to buy an rs3 to get one which is not cheap.
Legendary engine lives on!!!
Love the Arnold's commentary to these cars! :D
Awsome video. thanks for sharing!! "That unique 5 cylinder sound will forever be synonymous with Audi." FOREVER!!!!
SOUNDS BETTER THAN ANY V8
i can not look this to the end...
all those brutal...
urquattro... RS2....
i am so gona cry
My favorite car brand/racing team. Audi & Audi Sport
Advancement through technology 😍😘
This is why I am soul and body for Audi.I don't regret nothing when I am driving an Audi.
the car and the all drivers who drive audi quattro are the LEGENDS, and all respect to them from Slovenia.
This is why I like Audi over BMW and MB.
Well to be fair most of the German car companies have their milestones in history. Looking at Porsche, BMW, Mercedes. But the Milestones of Audi are more outstanding. Because Porsche for example didn't brag at all about the fact that they were running a big ol' biturbo setup that put out 800 HP without any form of air cooling. So they were making it off melting hot air sucked into the turbos. And at this point (don't remember the year) even 800 HP was ridiculously much. With air cooling they would've been able to get 1000 or so. But Porsche most of the time didn't brag about stuff like that because they always tried rediculous things. Just nobody but the hardcore fans knows about it 🤷🏻♂️
And I don't know if he still does it but Röhrl was for Porsche what Stuck is in this video for Audi. Sort of a promotional quality control figure
not bad, the editor should have paid more attention, showing IMSA 90 during the Trans Am section and showing two different car interior shots during the Pikes Peak segment.
Love the early footage, I consider myself lucky to own an NG equipped b3, non Quattro, nothing special, but what a sound, original 10 valve warble is unbeatable
The turbo technology 🔥
The Audi 200 Turbo silver color was my favourite car when was young
Yep me too, poster on the wall.
Heil Leitner! without him we wouldnt get goosebumps when turbo quattro is passing by.....
possibly best sound ever that engine can make =)
Audi needs to be Pikes Peak champions again
Thank you Audi! 5 pot for the win!!!
This is the reason why my first car is a audi 100 5-cylinder. true love
Best engine that Audi made
Man, this video is amazing. I can't believe I have just now found out about it, literally made me emotional at some parts.
Group B the brightest star of the rally forever
Some real legends! Please release a video for the new aluminium 2.5 tfsi production line!
These beautiful engines have such a harmonic tone, like a chord, they sing....
I gotta say without the Audi 5000 there could be no s series model's, a series models and q series models.
The mooning doll 😂
😢 🤧 👏👏👏👏 😊 truly an amazing showcase of the 5 Cylinder engine. The Ur S1 featured here made me tear.
Awesome vid!.. inspires me to finish my 2.5 5 cyl turbo awd mk1 golf project..
👍👌👊!
Goosebumps
It's a shame you don't offer the engine in more models these days.
"We should ask more for it..."
WE STILL SHOULD! Audi 80 enthusiasts are true gear heads,
No Hype! RIP Dr. Peich
5:55 Hurley describes that iconic wategate sound ✅
Hope Audi continues to develop the Inline 5 engine even in light of downsizing. Sure V8 & V6 could be slowly phased out, but let that I5 live on.
Makes me kinda proud to own the b2 coupe 1.8gt.
They should never stop using the 5 cylinder. The new engines are a pain to work on that cost the consumer to much.
In 1985 I was seven years old, me, my dad and our neighbour stood in the freezing cold at the Special Stage "Mangen" of the WRC Swedish Rally. It was dark, and when the sound of the first car approaching our spot could be heard my dad says "here comes the Audi!". I was like "How do you know it's the Audi dad?" [the Sport Quattro S1 to be precise], he said "No other car in the world sounds like that!", sure enough, the Audi drove by. The next year, 1986, we where back in the freezing cold, but this time, I knew what to listen for, I could pinpoint the sound of the Audis [sadly, the Sport Quattro S1 didn't compete in the Swedish Rally that year, but a couple of Copués and 90's showed up] approaching. As Stuck, Röhrl and the others said in the video, the sound of the I5 Audi is THE best sound in motorsport ever. Such emotion!
Bonus! I also got to see the Citroën BX4TC in '86 Swedish Rally, Citroën's failed bid the Group B era.
some of the best times in racing in general actually. i'd do anything to drive any of these.
This was and still is one of my dream cars and every saturday afternoon i would be glued to the TV, i loved off road rallying,but could Audi beat off the competition of to day? we will never know?
wow, did they really add the old school audio effect to the narration?
The guy in the middle at 5:12 looks to give the bird to the camera lol
So I guess they invented the 5 cylinder. Really nice keep up the good work
Watched this 10 times it never gets old❤
