    Tough to believe this RS5 in stock form made just as much power as the 2024 RS5... I'd much rather listen to and look at this one, but maybe that's just me.

      The 2024 does make 130 more torque, though. Which is slightly under-reported by Audi for the B9 generation. But no doubt the NA V8 sounded a lot better.

      Also consider that the chassis used to be about one size smaller 20yrs ago for their lineup. The C5 RS6 had 450hp with the 4.2L twin turbo in a car that is the size of the new S4 today. IMO it's in the top 3 for the Audi engines.

    Definitely my favorite gen of RS5, and the best V8 Audi ever made. It's still a bit too nose-heavy (as are all Audi's, except the R8), but not NEARLY as understeer-y as all the recent RS Audi's. I walked away from a "Final Edition" TT-RS, almost entirely because of the terrible handling (and also because those newer 5cyl engines completely cut you off at like 6800rpm... lame). I really wish Audi had mounted the V8 in these RS5's a bit further back, it was still just way too far forward and it only got worse as they moved into the turbo era. BMW always manages to keep the M cars more front-mid engine, even with the S65 engine in the E92. I've got a '20 M2 CS, and even with the inline-6 longblock and twin turbos, that engine is still pushed so far towards the firewall that it sits behind the front wheels.
    These things didn't handle nearly as well as the E9x M3's, but they were faster off the line for sure. They really were the final era of high-revving german V8's.
    The AWD in these RS5's was also way more of a proper AWD system than the goofy Quattro systems in the latest RS3's and stuff, which may as well just be FWD (the rears really only kick in on launches and if it feels a traction loss, but tuning those Haldex systems to be more rear-biased was a nightmare, they just weren't built for it and always break if you try to do even a full-time 40/60 front/rear split).
    I honestly kind of wish that Audi had done a RWD-only version of these RS5's, but then they stuck that excellent V8 in the R8 and all was basically forgiven. I still think the 1st gen V8 R8 *might* be more fun than the V10 and V10+. That V8 gets slept on, but it's such a damn good engine (and I generally don't even like V8's, I'm more of an inline-6 and Porsche flat-6 guy, but the E9x M3 and this gen of Audi RS cars will always have a place in my heart for being high-revving N/A beasts that were the last of their kind).

Would also help to rationalize the cost of those things a bit.

    Does anyone know what paddles are on that steering wheel?
    Looks like a stock wheel with custom paddle shifters, which would be a welcome upgrade since the stock paddles are plastic and kinda mushy feeling.
    Any help appreciated!

    I drove this generation of RS5 few years ago. I was not impressed at all. Part of the reasons was it was at high elevation (at Denver). But also it just felt too heavy. The lack of torque exaggerated the heaviness. E90 M3 could get away from similar engine because M3 is about 500 lbs lighter. I always think those RS5 should come with forced inductions.
