From the ''big 3 Germans'', Audi is the one I commend for not ruining their design in time but improving it.
90k for a car that will sell for less than 50k 3 years later is why the vast majority of these vehicles are leased and then purchased by someone who actually is buying the car closer to what it's actually worth,! I've owned Mercedes, BMW and Audi and they are all great vehicles initially, but man is the maintenance outrageous once the miles add up!
That's why I got a Genesis.
That depreciation is factored into the lease prices, I assure you.
I had an A8 that was a absolutely beautiful car, but when that repair bill came OOOOOHHHHH LAWDY
Unfortunately true. I've owned Audi/BMW (and everything else Japanese) vehicles, since the late 80s (still do). But as long as they continue to bring a smile and enjoyment to your driving pleasure, Why not. My current DD is a B9 S4.
@@senseicorey9979 exactly!
Where John Davis? No body wants an AI voice 😂. Half the reason I watch these is for the therapeutic voice of the Great John Davis!
John hasn't voiced our Quick Spin segments in quite a few years. Greg and Jessica handle them these days.
@@Motorweek ahh gotcha!!
I love these things. I bought a new B9 S5 back in 2018 and it just passed 112k miles. Drove it cross country from Los Angeles a few times already. Definitely great cars.
My 2022 S5 has 18kon it. Any issues with yours? So far just oil changes for me
@@carramrod8232 I had to replace the fuel tank at 90k and a coolant tank at 70k. I did some preventive maintenance like spark plugs and oil breather hose around 60k. Every 50k I do a transmission flush. 5k for oil changes.
That's such a good looking car. It will still be good looking in a few years, unlike their competition. I would complain about the price, except for everything is expensive these days. You can even find trucks that cost more.
Still a looker since the first series hatchback came out years ago.
Please add back the V8 engine and I am thinking to buy one with V8. The V6 is a cheaper replacement for sports car.
Simplistic power & performance. I love this car 🖤🏁😎
Why are the wheels so tucked in? Oh - snow tires?
In 3-5 years when Audi randomly turns off many of the selling points of the tech, the owners will be as pissed as me in my 18’ RS3.
So since 2008 Audi has not figured out a way to increase horsepower in an RS5...the 2008 S5 had 354hp...that is 16 years with zero progression. WOW.
Guess you missed the part where the RS5 has 444hp now.
Torque has increased by more than 25% from the V8 RS5 to the Twin-Turbo V6. This engine seems to pull hard early and never let up.
@@94b20gsr a 2010 RS5 makes 450hp…guess you missed THAT part. Zero gain, actual netting a loss since 2010 (14 years).
@5150sixfortysevenF Guess we can ignore that the new car is over half a second quicker to 60 and the quarter mile. Sound may not be as nice, but the new car is better in every other metric.
Either way, the new car has progressed a good bit even if the hp on paper is down by 6.
So they calling a sedan a 'sportsback' that doesnt have a sloped back end? Yeah, no. This is just as bad as when they called sedans as coupes years back...dumb and dumbest
No performance numbers? Come on MW.
It's just a quick spin not their full road test
Who says the Economy is bad, when all you gotta do is look at the Car Industry, they are putting out more expensive cars every year without fail. That's a helluva indicator to let us all know the Economy is stronger than ever.
😂😂😂😂 I hope others can appreciate what you did there
Well, I think you're joking. However rich people are always insulated from issues with bad policies and bad administration, and therefore bad economic situations like we are in now. So yes, rich people can still buy these cars.
Please tell me this is facetious...
No change in horse power... it's two other competitors have cars that make substantially more power and have some form of AWD. Audi needs to do better....
Right. And I'm sure they can pull at least 500hp from that 2.9
@@nigels6786 it's turbocharged. If they can't get 50 hp out of that when other car makers with less or slightly more displacement can get 500+, then audi should gett out of the gane. Hell, their 2.5 5 cylinder can easily make 500+ hp. Are you stating they didn't put strong enough internals in the engine? I have the V-8 RS5, I love it. But the same HP number is ridiculous when the competitors are making faster vehicles.
@@tilmonr right
Still a brute by any measure.
Audi really needs an updated look. Their lineup looks so dated.
……I would NEVER own a German car again! Nice to look at, but SO MUCH breaks if you hold on to the vehicle. Forget it!
Nice to drive terrible to own as always from the VW passat to Audious Muchachos
The Best Volkswagen in the World…
Stop buying these overpriced garbage who as soon as warranty expires, break and will cost you the value of a second car just to keep on road…pathetic.
Been there. Done that.
Nah couldn't care less what a poor man says, who needs a finacing plan for a whole food tomato
I buy mine new. My 2018 S5 just passed 112k. If you do preventive maintenance, they work just fine.
Those wheels are ugly.
looks so dated
Meh. It's not a e-tron.
E tron garbage appliance car
Who is the lady doing this review ...Better question is WHY?😅😅😅
