I'll take the 1st gen A7, Miles. The overall form of the 1st gen looks friendlier to my eyes. The 2nd gen is still good looking but the design details need to switch to decaf - mellow out some.
Ha! It's funny that the new one is "too much" by softening some of the first gen's hard creases - but I totally agree. While still a relatively clean form compared to, for example, BMW's latest designs, the new A7 doesn't have the same effortless beauty of the original.
I have the first generation A7, and I love it. I think that the first generation looked better. But performance wise, the new cars have almost 100 horses more of power, so that can't be overlooked.
this car needed the DSG / s tronic. I get for the RS7 wanting the torque converter but for this one if should have the more fun, snappy shifting dual clutch
I would say you can get a 2021-2022 M5 for right around 100K without many miles at all. Maybe the best new daily under 100K but you can get a 1-2 year old car that is better by far without many miles for the same price while still having warranty.
Easily the 2nd gen design. The 2020 models front Grille is more upright and lends a much more Smarter and sportier look. The old one looked like a tired A4! Oh 14:28 and this amazing V6 sounds _miles better_ than the big boring bungling V8 that's just noise for noise sakes.
Great video, car and review. Still looks good no matter the generation, but how does the netting on seat backs easily wear when truly no one uses them? (IN MY OPINION)Well except the for the few that will no doubt respond and say that they still do and that theirs have.
Glad you liked it! If you have kids, you'll see netted pouches like these get destroyed. Stuff has to go somewhere, and these only hold their shape for a short time before sagging.
If I had the money to leave the lot in an S7, then I wouldn't leave the lot in an S7. I'd come back in a few weeks with the money to leave the lot in an RS7. But that's just me 🤷♀️
the competitors to the Audi both have speech recognition capabilities. newer versions have considerable functionality, such 'open the sunroof', or 'change passenger temp to 74 degrees'. What does the Audi S7 offer in the way of speech capabilities?
miles What are the reliable cars in terms of the lack of breakdowns... They tell me the reliable cars in terms of the lack of breakdowns are Japanese cars such as the land cruiser and lexus lx... Is this true??.. and what do you think??
This has a better grade of sound system than a 125K Porsche Panamera ... with that said this car he's driving doesn't have cooled seats but an Arteon does at a maxed price fully loaded 55K dollars, dealer mark up may apply, and a better grade, in my opinion, sound system over a Panamera, which is Bose in the Panamera vs Harmon in the Arteon..... but if you get the Arteon you have a 4 cylinder vs having a 6 cylinder, same 2.9, in the Panamera and A7.... For the price of the Panamera I think I would get a Taycan....but for daily driver I would get the Arteon....Now if I were wasteful spending... I would get the A7...LOL
Lol a daily for under £90000 most of us r at under £50000 so my Golf R at £48000 is spot on and will thrash that big heavy car on the twisties thanks especially with it's stage 1 tune giving it 380bhp thanks.
after watching your previous s7 video for almost 2 years this past april i picked up my own S7 Prestige
I’m an Audi fanboy so S7 all the way for me. However that 0 to 60 time the AMG45 puts down is impressive.
Meanwhile, my definition of daily doesn't go above $35k 😂😂😂
mine doesnt even go above 11k sad
Totally. Everyone has a different budget, hence the "under $100K" parameters of the title. If it was a $35K budget, I'd say a DSG Golf GTI.
Ok so Corrolla or base spec economy SUV
If you have the money, why would you stick with a quite normal and dull daily ?
11:29 "some numbness, in your TOKKHASS"🤣🤣🤣
😂
@@MilesPerHr i am a huge fan i never miss any of your videos❤️

People are obsessed with the 1st gen because to me it was truly revolutionary, but 2nd gen is definitely a much better look
Exterior of 1st is better. Interior of 2nd gen is much better because of new technology obviously 😅🤌🏿
Performance and sound!
13:18 what in the world is that trailer 😂
😂😂
Someone took a bite out of the middle of it 😆
1st gen definitely looked better to me. Not so over styled and has a much better shape to the rear and and tail lights.
💯💯
1st gen for me!
Yeah I would much rather have the c6 or c7’s v8.
I will pick the rs3 that has been my dream car for over a year
Hopefully you have it! My friend let me drive his and man now i hate my 2018 a4
@2:12 Agree with you, I much prefer the previous generation. Also, is it just me or are the bumper lines a little off?
I have the first generation A7, and I love it. I think that the first generation looked better. But performance wise, the new cars have almost 100 horses more of power, so that can't be overlooked.
How does the performance in the S7 compare to the RS5 ? I know its the same engine but which would you prefer?
This beautiful video makes me fantasize about the days when car dealerships had cars.
Gen 1 s7. 4.0t. All day
i mean, for the price i would rather take a 2023 G80 M3 with the manual, but that just me
CT5-V BW for me
I'd rather drive ANYTHING rear wheel drive, even a wheelchair than that horrible understeering barge!
@V0SS_ if you watch his g80 m3 comp xdrive that was 101k
Two different cars for different purposes
This looks way better then then bmw cars now
7:45 I believe the asterisk button on the steering wheel can be customized for control the drive select
this car needed the DSG / s tronic. I get for the RS7 wanting the torque converter but for this one if should have the more fun, snappy shifting dual clutch
For full launch control you need to hold down the ESC button for 3 seconds 😊
Happy birthday hope you had an amazing day 🎉
Thank you! I did indeed
Some of those panel alignment's are unacceptable for a car that cost this much.
Well done review appreciate your insight.
I would say you can get a 2021-2022 M5 for right around 100K without many miles at all. Maybe the best new daily under 100K but you can get a 1-2 year old car that is better by far without many miles for the same price while still having warranty.
we are going to buy it beacuse of your reviev thank you
Honestly Id rather get the s6 and save some $. The 7 is more attractive but just not worth the extra cost.
For some of us, if the liftgate weren’t there we’d have to go SUV.
Easily the 2nd gen design. The 2020 models front Grille is more upright and lends a much more Smarter and sportier look. The old one looked like a tired A4! Oh 14:28 and this amazing V6 sounds _miles better_ than the big boring bungling V8 that's just noise for noise sakes.

First generation for sure.
I would like you to do a Test Drive of a Manual Porsche 911 GT3 or Lotus Emira Manual
Working on the Emira. Would love to hop into a manual GT3. We'll see!
If I had the money to leave the lot in an S7, then I wouldn't leave the lot in an S7. I'd come back in a few weeks with the money to leave the lot in an RS7. But that's just me 🤷♀️
I'm sure most would agree, but it is a $40K jump in starting price.
@@MilesPerHr fair. I guess it really depends on exactly what type of buyer the S7 is aiming for vs the RS7.
1st gen S7 was much better. Same for the A5, 1st gen was better. Audi always seems to make a beautiful design then next gen goes bland or backwards.
What about lexus? The is500 might do it better
Nah, we want German/european
@@Wulf44445then I'd without any doubt buy an m340i the b58 is monstrous and that thing costs around 60k
@@nmhp7659 I would personally never buy a bmw. Because I love Audi and for example this S7 is pretty much flawless
@@Wulf44445 well it's your choice but I think you can get more in that price range
IS??? That's a subcompact in size
The S7 needs a V8 otherwise this car is underpowered versus the beemers

I wish it had a PDK
It’s a diesel which says everything.
Would rather an a7 55.
What's a diesel? Here in the U.S., we have a gas-powered twin-turbo V6
Such a shame that the Audi S cars are diesel in the UK

Pls bro. 2 weeks ive been asking u to drive the rs7 sportback c8
I gave my wife one. Told her speed was in km. She crashes that **** into a tree at 140mph. Dang
miles What are the reliable cars in terms of the lack of breakdowns... They tell me the reliable cars in terms of the lack of breakdowns are Japanese cars such as the land cruiser and lexus lx... Is this true??.. and what do you think??
it’s true
Lexus is the most reliable brand by far.
In general, JDM cars are more reliable, though among German brands, Audi is pretty darn reliable.
i want to see the speed when you drive the car at higher speed
First generation was 1000% better. It looked like a fighter jet when it came out. They ruined it.
I miss the angles
i wouldnt be able to drive an S7 or S6 knowing that RS7 and RS6 exist
You would if you didn't have RS7 money 😆
Just wondering, would you recommend this or the Audi rs5 because of the same engine.
This has a better grade of sound system than a 125K Porsche Panamera ... with that said this car he's driving doesn't have cooled seats but an Arteon does at a maxed price fully loaded 55K dollars, dealer mark up may apply, and a better grade, in my opinion, sound system over a Panamera, which is Bose in the Panamera vs Harmon in the Arteon..... but if you get the Arteon you have a 4 cylinder vs having a 6 cylinder, same 2.9, in the Panamera and A7....

4.41s means X3 M40i,
Are those exhausts elaborate fakes like Audi does on their other models, or are they real?
They are enhanced by the speakers, yes 😔
Nice
Is it diesel or petrol ?
Gasoline.
Under 100k... Even an A6 with enough options costs around 102k€...
As a both A8 and M550i owner, I would definitely take 550 over s7 for the best daily that under 100k:)
Man I’m so poor
Audi tamed the car way too much and the V6 is Blah.
1st
Edit: Awesome video as always
☝️
Those gears are LONG
2nd
Первое поколение уже старье выпускается с 2010 года. Внтури очень уныло. Второе поколение гораздо лучше, тут даже нечего сравнивать
First
New Cayenne S is better as a daily
If you like SUVs, yes. The A7/S7's Fastback design has its own appeal.
looks just a like a Honda Accord rather drive a Honda better mileage
I would like to see audi rs7 2023
