What a respectable sedan Drew and Mason! I just traded on Saturday for a 2021 Camry XSE Hybrid. What an upgrade from my 2019 Camry XSE! Fuel mileage is also incredible! Celestial Silver with Cockpit Red interior. I am super happy with it so far! Hope you all have an incredible Memorial Day weekend! I certainly am! With full respect always! Mark in Iowa.
@@dude-yg9ez Thank you! Having the new Camry XSE Hybrid fo 2 days so far, it is an excellent all around car! My 2019 Camry XSE was also an excellent car and got me 40 mpg average most of the time.
I can't stand the fact that I can finally afford this car but no dealer within 500 miles of me has it or when one does come in, it's not the color combo I want 😡🤬🤯
It’s so hard to find a specific trim and specifications for German cars now… my gf just purchased a 2022 BMW X3 and she wanted a Brooklyn Gray with red leather seats. BMW told us there were only 4 around America with the specs she wanted… that’s how bad the car industry is now lol
@@maitogai1995 yeah, it's sad. Funny thing is the dealers keep calling me to look at other colors and they just can't understand that if I'm spending 80k plus, it better be the color I want, not the color they have available 😂
@@jlent103 yeah I got really annoyed when the BMW dealer kept asking my gf if she wanted something else besides the X3 or that color. The dealer was trying to persuade her to get a used 2020 X3M and I went off on them lol.
There's the saying take the first thing smoking. Time isn't our friend. It doesn't wait for no one. If it's the brand you want but not the color combo. Get it. It's just not the color combo you wanted. However it's the brand you wanted. So would you want another brand that have the color combo you want? Let me guess No. If it was me once one comes in. I would take it cause I can say I have one. I'm driving it and loving it. Granted it is not the color I wanted. At least I have one. While everybody else still waiting to get one. Tomorrow isn't promised. So take the next A7 that comes available. I promise you somebody else will. You hate that they don't have the color combo you want. You going to hate it even more. If you changed your mind and go back for it and they done already sold it.
I agree, I'm quite disappointed as well with those exhausts. For 85K those tail pipes need to be pointing out the back and not down. I do like that feature with the spoiler though 😎
This is all I have been waiting for this one and this will be my dream sport sedan to afford one for myself and my girlfriend as well. Overall, brilliant job and review bro.
Am I the only one that thinks the design of this model is behind that of the original A7? The refresh 2016-2018 A7(and the glorious S7/RS7 models) are still stunning. This just looks anonymous and dare I say not as exciting as something like a Kia Stinger(yes that "stings", but this thing is $85K with black plastic where the exhaust tips go. Cmon!). I just feel that Audi lost their way on the redesign. I also believe the BMW 8-Series Gran Coupe may be the best looking of these 4-door "coupes".
Totally agree with you the 2016-2018 looks way more worth the money then this new one it doesn’t stand out fits in with Camry maxima this model years sucks
as an owner of A7 2019 version, avoid this car!!! it has had lots of issues since day one. Can you imagine that error msg or alert pops up almost every day? the issues include lights malfunctions, transmission: please select gear (while waiting for traffic lights), Audi pre sense limited, electrical system malfunction, remote control key, cross traffic assist not available.......I've had the Audit technician looked at it, I was told some of the issued can't be reproduced, some of them would be gone after next time start. however, some issues still stay with like forever....disappointed. I'm also the owner of Q7 - 2018, and was owner of A4, very happy about the Q7 and A4. but not the A7.
Hey bud, quick heads up, I own a 2019 A7 too and all of these malfunctions mean your alternator is getting ready to go out SOON. Quit using the start/stop feature. Keep it disabled. Also prepare to replace the alternator. It's beginning to fail. I promise you. If I could show you pictures of when the alternator finally died on me, I would show you. Since my alternator got replaced, they haven't popped up yet and it's been 5 months. So take my word for what it's worth. When the alternator starts failing, it has to limit power distribution, and that's why you have so many systems failing. The very last system that will fail hours before the alternator is finally dead will be your power steering. I promise you. Go get the alternator replaced through warranty. That's what I did for mine. Warranty covered it. Once you get the new alternator, start turning off start/stop feature.
Hey Mason & Drew, how do you think this particular Audi compares to the Acura TLX Type-S? The power and torque is about the same. But price is NOT!! Maybe these 2 vehicles should in your next comparison video!! They are both AWD, with turbocharged V-6 engines making over 300hp.🙏🏾
The Acura TLX type s is more comparable to the Audi A4s, both have 350 hp, both AWD much closer in price, they do a good performance comparison between the 2
One thing I dislike about car reviews is how they all turn the tire inwards when doing side profiles. Like how can we get a full view if you guys keep doing that?
Proud original owner of a 2012 A7 but current model prices are just not realistic at all. Pay $5k more at $90k and get a twin turbo bmw m550 V8 for 525hp. This makes no sense.
Why they dumb it down with red turn signals is beyond me. It reminds me of uhaul trailers that have a single bulb light for taillight, turn signal and brake light
@@reynaldocordero4247 the charging mechanism had a fault and due to the supply chain issues, there was a two month wait for a part from Germany so I replaced it with another vehicle. Great car aside from that issue though 😂
@@travisrauh So you didn't get another Audi? Since it was a great car to you. Also the dealership didn't offer you a loaner? Or pay for you a rental for the inconvenience. Cause the issue wasn't your fault. Audi to me should take care of the customer. If you got rid of it. Audi should had replaced it with a good deal on the replacement.
@@reynaldocordero4247 no the two dealerships I dealt with, again capitalizing on the supply chain nonsense (though I think it was laziness), claimed they had no loaner vehicles and would not pay for a loaner since I could still drive it on just gasoline (though the engine was underpowered since it normally relies on the electrification; so it got shitty gas mileage). Actually quite terrible service now that you make me think of it. I mentally was also thinking of it as a transitory vehicle (to fully electric), which is probably why I just opted to get rid of it as easily as I did.
@@travisrauh Gotcha you. So you didn't sell it back to the dealership. Take the money and put down on your replacement vehicle. Then what did you end up getting? If not another Audi. You know I would've called corporate on those dealership you were dealing with. Once corporate had contacted the dealership. I bet they would been calling you to put you in a loaner or pay for a rental.
The A7 had previously been my dream car, but I am not a fan of how this model has evolved. The prior generation looks better, and Audi seems to have lost their way with interior design. I believe the MB-CLS now has the edge in this segment.
Audi's in Kentucky? Who would have thought and as far as the matrix headlights, the U.S. version is still castrated of its best features due to our antiquated headlight regulations. I am surprised that Audi is not forced to have quad round sealed beam headlamps.
Why wouldn't Audi be in Kentucky? Lexington is like the capitol of horse racing, big big money there as well as 50 miles from Louisville and Cincinnati
There is no greater message to be heard than that which we call the gospel. But as important as that is, it is often given to massive distortions or over simplifications. People think they're preaching the gospel to you when they tell you, 'you can have a purpose to your life', or that 'you can have meaning to your life', or that 'you can have a personal relationship with Jesus.' All of those things are true, and they're all important, but they don't get to the heart of the gospel. The gospel is called the 'good news' because it addresses the most serious problem that you and I have as human beings, and that problem is simply this: God is holy and He is just, and I'm not. And at the end of my life, I'm going to stand before a just and holy God, and I'll be judged. And I'll be judged either on the basis of my own righteousness-or lack of it-or the righteousness of another. The good news of the gospel is that Jesus lived a life of perfect righteousness, of perfect obedience to God, not for His own well being but for His people. He has done for me what I couldn't possibly do for myself. But not only has He lived that life of perfect obedience, He offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice to satisfy the justice and the righteousness of God. The great misconception in our day is this: that God isn't concerned to protect His own integrity. He's a kind of wishy-washy deity, who just waves a wand of forgiveness over everybody. No. For God to forgive you is a very costly matter. It cost the sacrifice of His own Son. So valuable was that sacrifice that God pronounced it valuable by raising Him from the dead-so that Christ died for us, He was raised for our justification. So the gospel is something objective. It is the message of who Jesus is and what He did. And it also has a subjective dimension. How are the benefits of Jesus subjectively appropriated to us? How do I get it? The Bible makes it clear that we are justified not by our works, not by our efforts, not by our deeds, but by faith-and by faith alone. The only way you can receive the benefit of Christ's life and death is by putting your trust in Him and in Him alone. You do that, you're declared just by God, you're adopted into His family, you're forgiven of all of your sins, and you have begun your pilgrimage for eternity.
I got the 2022 A6, and now you're making me regret not going for the A7!

The reason they do that is cause of EU emmission regulations they force most manufacturers to put them down
Really nice review on the Audi A7. Keep up the good work.
It looks good, but the old one looked better, it was more sensuous. That said, the current RS7 is a stunner.
This is all I have been waiting for this one and this will be my dream sport sedan to afford one for myself and my girlfriend as well. Overall, brilliant job and review bro.

Yea, it looks "cheap" compared to the original design. Looks like a Hyundai. The original had much more character.
This is a gorgeous car. I don't know if any cat is worth 85k, but damn is it nice
Considering ppl pay $40k+ for rav 4s nowadays I would say it’s worth it 🤣
