  • Forgot to upload this a while ago, so we're pushing almost 2 years with it now lmao. Car has been great the whole time. Definitely recommend these for the price! Haven't done anything else to it but plan on getting coilovers + tuning it soon, so I'll make an update video then.
    Mods:
    CTS Turbo Intake
    ECS Gloss Black Rear Diffuser
    RS Honeycomb Grille
    Zaustworx Axleback

    im based in the uk and bought the b8 s5 4.2l v8 with a 6 speed manual box, was going to go for the v6 supercharged, but love the v8 sound of these, have done a rear muffler delete , 20 mm spacers on the rear with 15mm on the front with coilovers, its a beast to drive, the v8 manuals are a thing of the past now!

    I bought one a couple of months ago in the spec you wanted... Black with black and red interior... stage 1, and I'm super happy with it... also want to keep it as 'stock' as possible without going over board... but maybe will do the pulleys down the line and drop it... also in two minds about the diffuser... love the standard look... In the spec i have, i havent seen any other S5 in my city... 👌🏽 👏 👍

      ahh nice thats my ideal spec haha. wish i was able to find one when i was looking. same that's my game plan, stage 1 should be plenty fast for a street car.

    Car is sick bro, im in the market for a s5 or s3 whatever good deal comes up I will definitely prefer the s5 though. And like you said it makes enough power. I’ve seen stage 1 s5’s doing 450-470. Beautiful car, can’t wait to see more😎

    • @theOGalexd
      @theOGalexd  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      thanks man! they're solid cars for sure. S3s are good bang for the buck too but can't beat the looks of the S5 imo!

    bought a 2014 s4 about 7 months ago at 98k and yes maintenance is expensive but no failures or breaks by now at 107k miles! gonna go stage 1 and stop once the car is at or around 420 hp. Its in incredible condition for being so old

    I've got a 6 speed 2010 Accord Coupe V6. Definitely thinking of upgrading to a one of these old S5s with the V8 and 6 speed. I have gotten to a point, I need to double clutch heel toe downshifts through every gear man. I just can't drive an auto, unless its simply not a sporty car.

    • @NoBaconForYou
      @NoBaconForYou ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess that dsg is pretty cool.. maybe if it was a real good deal. I'd honestly drive across the country for the right car. Have to pay off the accord first

    I might be a tad bit late, got the 2016 Audi S5 last year of their B8.5 jus barely over 80k miles and very well maintained all CARFAX was with Audi dealerships. Beautiful car and yes, what it says on paper is NOT it. Ain’t no way this car almost 4,000 pounds moving the way it does and feeling light like a feather, supercharged is amazing max torque under 2k rpm is what does it

  • @ttyson4602
    @ttyson4602 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a 2016 Accord coupe V6... but I now been heavily considering getting an Audi S5 (2014-2017) cause the prices are reasonable now and buying one used even with lower mileage.. Also only because I heard the engines are respectively reliable too

    • @theOGalexd
      @theOGalexd  ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah they're solid engines! they're in a lot of Audi's and a lot of people will say they're the most reliable engine they've made. If you want the extra reliability, an A6/A7 with the ZF8 or a manual S5 would be better than the DSG but 2013+ they should be good either way.

    • @ttyson4602
      @ttyson4602 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Alex Donaldson I seen quite a few reviews and people don't have too many issues with the S5 neither the RS5... they say just take it to your Audi dealer and keep it maintained with its oil service

    Don't waste your time with the sun shade it's a pain in the A to put in a new one u will be better to have it tinted with the mirror tint becuzs that headliner/glass roof has to come out to much work for that sun shade leave open and mirror tint it looks better and block out the sun without making it to dark inside nice ride 👍

      true lol. it’s definitely not very good in the city when you’re in boost. highway it’s alright. overall in TX it’s not too bad but being in Cali it would add up.
