Just a word about the Imola Yellow B5. This car is testament to the longevity of the design. It looks absolutely amazing and as fresh today as it was all those years ago. A supremely integrated, well executed piece of design, yes, it says power and performance but doesn't shout about it . The B5 RS4 never needed to shout "look at me" like its contemporaries. If you put this alongside the other two german competitor marques offerings of the time, it's the B5 that hands down stands the test of time. The B9 swansong is, and I agree with Joe Achiles here, everything Audi should have done with the car from the get-go. They finally went there and released the true performance of the car, but all those wasted years so frustrates and annoys us Audi Fans. You have understood and captured its essence, Joe seemed unable to. As I gaze lustfully at the B5, I am left wondering how much that Imola yellow beauty would realise at auction; I had those wheels on one of the first B6 2003 A4 Cabriolets to come to the UK. I drove the car from the dealer in Bremen via a visit to Neckersulm and the Nordschleife, before boarding the Ferry from Cuxhaven to Harwich and then on to Cardiff. That beautiful car had the 3.0 Sport V6 and I remember how nice it sounded with the roof down and how many appreciative glances it received, Those wheels looked amazing and still do.
Meanwhile the new M5 is heavier than: Mercedes Sprinter Mercedes Maybach S680 Tesla Model X Bentley Bentayga Porsche Taycan Rolls-Royce Ghost And slower than previous M5
I’ve just come out of my B9 RS4 after 4 years and into an M3 Touring. M3 is LEAGUES ahead of this. I left Audi because they seem so slow in developing ‘new stuff’. There’s nothing to replace it (at least not that’s been announced yet). I did love my B9, but it is outdated now and this is ridiculous £££ for what is actually is under the skin. Having said that, I still love it, but in reality you’d be mad to part with that cash over a really well equipped M3T + £10k in the bank.
Could be more of a sleeper, TBH, but I don't know if 'the market' feels the same about that. And to be fair, I'm more of an AMG guy anyway. But maybe if Audi made that sleeper, 🤷🏽♂.
Saying you probably need to buy a house in Malaga while there are protests over there because of the tourists and people buying up all the houses is crazy 😂
Cool but 400 odd horsepower in 2024? 0-60 in 4 sec approx. 150k Euros. When you compare it to a RS6? I don't know. Value for money etc maybe the RS6 for me.
Ok So the car you showed had a suede steering wheel. The one you're driving is leather. The car is really nice though. Audi designs some beautiful cars.
What annoys me about these new cars is first thing in the morning you open your garage door jump in the car with its cold engine, start it to get out of the garage, get out of car to shut the garage door and the car turns off the engine 🤬
RS4 my favourite Station wagon. Alpine B3 no any more ... But unfortunately the new BMW interior screens everywhere, unnecessary brightness ruin that gorgeous station wagon. Fact.
cries in American. I have also always loved this as one of my favorite cars. at least by the time I can afford to buy this in cash it will be past the 25 year limit to import 🥲

Still enjoying my 6 years of the B9 RS4. Great car, zero problems, hard to move on… just yet.
AMG needs this passion, like the old days, so many missed opportunities lately.
The V6 sounds great to be fair, nice exhaust sound even with OPF.
Yes I have same engine in 22 S6 and doesn’t sound anything like this. Wonder if AWE exhaust & intake make it sound more alive

That Instant transmission intro never gets old!!
i’ve got an rs4 competition and i’ve absolutely loved every minute don’t care an m3 touring may beat it, i just love it
M3 wagon won’t beat it in the snow or the wet 👍
Meanwhile the new M5 is heavier than:
Mercedes Sprinter
Mercedes Maybach S680
Tesla Model X
Bentley Bentayga
Porsche Taycan
Rolls-Royce Ghost
And slower than previous M5
Awesome..
Sick paint job,seats and wheels ❤
Audi makes some beautiful wagons ..
Wish the rear wheel arches were more flared like the OG
Genius. Proper car for petrolheads, perfect sound and NO fakery
The most perfectly specced audi, maybe, car ever. Yeah, I bet it's not coming to the US.
😂
nah, but we will get B10 avants most likely.
US doesn’t get wagons. So frustrating
@@Markus56165 some people do. I've got the A4 Avant.
Thats a shame man!
I wish US had more sporty wagons like this rs4.
Why does audi make such good sounding cars
How come the Alcantara wheel swapped to perforated leather before you started driving it? 😀
Removable Alcantara cover 🙂 ....... well spotted man
so much better than the shooty BMW or the high tech 4 cilinder Benz...
Extra set of tyres, gloves and a watch...that's neat
Still waiting for your 1st proper drive with your Spyder RS...

How does the 2023 mercedes c63s compare to the 2012 c63 black series ? Also which is more fun ?
Ugh, it’s shit being an Audi fan living in the USA, we never get the great cars …… I would own one right now
curious the changed steering wheels before your test drive?
Awesome Video! Definitely makes me consider picking up one in the near future.
This is a great package deal. I would have like to have seen it offered for the TTRs
Why are there no videos of the Spyder RS on the channel?
That's a great spec but I have to say I would have to get it in the original blue from the rs2
That OG one in the back is fire!!! I’ll take that one thanks
How did they change front camber?
Sound reminds me of a w205 c43, which would make sense since it's also a V6.
The bi colour wheels are absolutely stunning and match the yellow colour perfect
Great car.
Thank you
😎😎😎👍👍👍
Most importantly that manual gearbox love that car
WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU REVIEW AN ABT RS4
What an estate!
Those alloys are probably the best in the market now..
Coming the RS5 coupe, RS5 convertible, RS5 sportback, and RS5 avant in 2025 lineup last year
They wont be making a coupe or convertible anymore. Just avant and sportback for the b10
Great Video - love the Colour
How did the steering wheel change materials?
The power and torque figures of a C63 like 15 years ago.
Khm Audi inline 5 and V10 would like to have a word with you ☝️
why did the steering wheel change?
That's not the same car. The one you showed had a real suede in the steering wheel, this one is perf leather?
So beautiful 💛💛💛
No pan roof?
When will we see the m5 Touring ?
I WOULD HAVE TO GET ROOF RAILS FITTED, YES i KNOW THAT WOULD DEVALUE IT !!
The car you drove doesn’t have the alcantara steering wheel like the one you reviewed
Is it wagon or Touring?
Could be more of a sleeper, TBH, but I don't know if 'the market' feels the same about that.
And to be fair, I'm more of an AMG guy anyway. But maybe if Audi made that sleeper, 🤷🏽♂.
It's missing black roof rails to complete the look.
I sold Audis back in 2000, drove one of the very first B5’s and sold to a guy in slough. Raz - they were never sold as an RS4 Sport. Only RS4 Avant.
I don’t know about the UK market, but Audi heritage were quite specific about the “sport” version that was offered later on.

Audi is on fire lately while bmw is going downhill
No roof rails? How am I supposed to put roof racks on it?
I think the normal RS4 might have that. This one more track focused
Send some to America
Waaay overpriced. Yet if I had the dough it would have it parked on my driveway
Wait. So this isn’t an RS6? Lol or is this due to the renaming?
Ok
So the car you showed had a suede steering wheel. The one you're driving is leather.
The car is really nice though. Audi designs some beautiful cars.
He did say you can have it with suede, so it’s probably an optional extra.
Prefer the look of the old one
Great car
..and you lost some weight bro

They do?
Mine doesn’t do that 😂
wish this came to Canada...
Taking the V8 away from this top motor is like ‘slapping God’ hard around the face
RUINED WITHOUT THE ROOF RAILS
Not so subtle promotional product drop, annoying!
RS4 my favourite Station wagon. Alpine B3 no any more ... But unfortunately the new BMW interior screens everywhere, unnecessary brightness ruin that gorgeous station wagon. Fact.
🚕🚖
"actual suede" steering wheel-----LOL that is gonna be GONE in 6 months. Alcantara >>>> Suede for a steering wheel.
Hardly a lightweight
Dated. BMW M3 is better.
ruclips.net/video/iHn0hFDuzeY/видео.htmlsi=tqhDMOCrojNl8cs1
That V6 is terrible sounds like a fart when changing gear. They should put the i5 or V8
What are you talking about? One of the best sounding car nowadays
Give them a call
Is it overpriced. Abso-fucking-lutely. Someone then please ask me, why do I love it so much?
Why do you love it so much?
@@maxtheflyingdutchman23 thank you for asking. Shape, beautiful. Interior, stunning. Engine, very very good. Price tag, cries in corner
cries in American. I have also always loved this as one of my favorite cars. at least by the time I can afford to buy this in cash it will be past the 25 year limit to import 🥲
