Audi RS5. Who likes 'em, who doesn't? WHY!!?

lux.sh · 05-06-2010, 06:37 PM

I have to say, this is one of the most finest looking vehicle on earth.
The design is so gentle and smooth. Even better is the exhaust note and whats under the hood.
Its like a business guy in a suit who can bench 300pds.

I heard price is expected to be around $69k base, well over 75k with options.
I really love this car. but most reviews say there are better alternatives to this car in its class/price range.

What do you guys think?

I dont like it, I LOVE it!

Gorgeous car inside and out! Audi really has some of the best looking cars lately

You do realize there are now official pics of the car online and the digital renderings you posted are inaccurate. But to answer your question, I like the RS 5 but feel that since it can't overstep the R8, it can only perform so well.

It's a great GT, I think it would be enjoyable to drive that car up the coast with the wife.

While it's a beautiful car and the interior is absolutely epic, it's overpriced just like every Audi.

Whats not to like?

Only fanboys would talk sh*t.

domobrown · 05-07-2010, 12:39 AM

I like the RS5 a lot. About to order one for me self

lux.sh · 05-07-2010, 01:01 AM

That interior is a killer. I don't know why so many people say Audi is overpriced.
RS4 indeed was a failure(everyone admits this) due to extreme pricing and not enough demand.

Other than that, I don't see any overpriced Audi? It is in same luxury class with BMW/MB.
If Audi is overpriced, all the damn bmw/mb is overpriced.

Thats because you drive the world's most bang-for-the-buck super car.

BMW269 · 05-07-2010, 07:39 AM

I like the RS5. I would like it even more if it were RWD. But I still like the RS4 more, it is more agressive and seems more special than A4/S4 than RS5 compared to A5/S5. Nevertheless the RS5 is a perfect package, but is does not have the history of the M3.

ACZakka325i · 05-07-2010, 09:57 AM

I wish I could afford one! It will be more exotic than the M3 for sure.

Do you mean that Audi's RS (Renn Sport) hasn't the history that BMW's M has?

Interesting.

Your comment doesn't make any sense. The Z06 is a lightweight, fun car that dominates anything in the Audi lineup on the track..
