I have had this car for two years now and every time I get into this beast, I am excited to drive. I could have bought the the newer RS5 but I like the trim of this car much better. The V-8 screams for you to push it harder and harder. With 8250 red-line, there is plenty of room for exhilaration and acceleration. Not that it needs it, but there are plenty of upgrades for this car. I started with the exhaust, and it's even meaner now than before. The downshifts in sport mode are a menacing snort that makes other cars take notice. The faster you go, the better the feel and handling tightens up, especially around a sharp wind in the road. It's not the fastest car, but will blow the doors off of just about anything on the road. I get compliments often on this beauty.

Great looking and running car. But beware of the timing chain on the Audi V8. Most aftermarket warranties won't cover it due to the expensive cost to replace. And once it breaks, the car is practically worthless. Do your research on the timing chain before purchasing.

I have owned this car Since Nov, 21 and have had no complaints. Take it to an Audi dealership or a European specialized mechanic and get everything up to date. I have had sports cars, Audi, Toyota, Porsche but this is another level. The RS badge makes it special. You notice this the first time you sit in the bolstered leather seats and look over the interior. Then you start it up! This car upon start-up, will always rock(literally), the car jumps to life as if you just unleashed something. Especially a cold-start. And the first time you go stop at a red light and that idiot in his whatever tuned car sits next to you and wants to race. You can even let him get a bit of a head start, and then just feather the gas a bit and your gone; drive in auto manual to really give him the ear exploding experience of that high revving V-8 that will supplant him to your rear view mirror in quick order. Honestly, this car is so pretty, and drives so well, it's a shame to put miles on it. If you want a car that checks off all the boxes, this is the car. It is not just a faster version of the S5, it's a totally different engine. Super car engine with the interior and looks of a special grand tourer. At least for me, I could not miss with this car. Fast, pretty, luxurious, and practical.
