I've had a 2022 RS5 Sportback in Turbo Blue, with blackpack, since April. Took 7 months to get. It is a ridiculously unbelievable vehicle - from performance to utility. I literally get asked about it everyday, especially the uniqueness of the colour (which they no longer offer). I love it. Congrats to you.
Congrats man! It's an amazing car! I have a 2021 A5 Sportback with the S line package, so nowhere near the RS5 but still very fun to drive and a beautiful car! 🔥🔥 Hope you enjoy this car man! 🔥
Nice ride, I just picked up the 2023 RS5 Sportback this week and haven't added too many miles yet. This weekend I will play. I'm in NJ and have to scope out a track, we have a 2022 Cadillac CT5 V too and it's ready to launch. I will baby mine (as much as possible) until I have the required miles to launch, but in RS 2, it's lightning fast around town. I subscribed to your channel and I hope to see more posts, hopefully opening her up. Good luck with your new car.
Congratulations, a beautiful spec too 👌🏼 If you have some free time it will nice to see another pov drive at day/night. Also is the suspension stiff over the bumps?
The suspension in the car is changeable, the comfort mode is very very relaxed and super comfortable, one thing I noticed is that it almost feels too soft because the power doesn’t change so if u aren’t paying attention and are going fast it doesn’t handle as well, in the dynamic mode it’s pretty stiff and u definitely feel all bumps
Just wait till you get it dude, it’s truly an amazing car and even as a plus people love it! I’ve gotten way more compliments on this car in stock form then even my Camaro! Good luck man
Congrats bro amazing ride. I have a 2019 sportback amazing only thing I wish the new facelift did was keep the flat bottom steering wheel as well as some sharper edges. But it’s an amazing vehicle enjoy it!
Nice review :) I have a 2022 carbon black version of the RS5 and I am very pleased with it overall. I have come from a C7 RS6 - so in terms of ultimate performance, although the 0-60 MPH is similar, the RS5 is nowhere near as manic as the RS6. That said, I prefer the 30-40 MPG in the RS5, compared to the 10 (!) - 30 MPG in the RS6! I do have a few niggles in the RS5 in terms of rattles. The passenger seat belt clamp can rattle (when you have no passenger). I have the B&O sound system, and find the central speaker in the dash can rattle now and again. Also the rear parcel shelf can rattle a bit now and again. But - overall I think the RS5 is a really smart car and clearly your are very pleased with yours, and so you should be Sir ! Mark.
Thanks so much for your positive comment! 1k miles down many more to go have enjoyed every second of it! I haven’t had any rattling yet but I’m sure it’s bound to happen I don’t think I’ve ever been in a car that didn’t have some sort of imperfection
@@everythingspeed6.2 You are right! I am just totally manic when it comes to noise. I drive my family and teenage boy mad with my obsession! But seriously, these are really small points. Whilst it is nice to think about a large V8, the world is changing and the 2.9 twin turbo in the RS5 is an amazing engine indeed. I use mine as an everyday car to drive for work and if you are sensible you can get really good economy. Which means when you want to take it for a blast I do not feel guilty!!
Congrats looking forward to mods. If you turn on the satellite view on the map settings it will change to google earth and on the virtual cockpit it looks insane
Congrats man, welcome to the 4 rings gang if this is your first audi. I've had my 18 a4 for 6 months and absolutely love it. Even stock, it's a joy to whip around and for the money you probs can't beat the comfort. My next car WILL be an s4. Audi just does the performance to utility ratio perfectly. Things are just solid.
Thank you! Your exactly right! I came from Volkswagen but the power level, handling, and overall technology is much more advanced and luxurious. Love it
@@fabulouspoet my first car was a 2013 gti then a 2019 Jetta gli now this 🤣 even my dad was in a regular golf then a gti now has the golf R. Big german fans over here
I have the same exact color and spec, mine is a 2022. The alcantara on the steering wheel wears fast and the piano black trim around the shifter is a nightmare to keep clean.
Thanks for the comment! Really exciting for a big channel to comment on such a small Channel! To my knowledge no looking at specs etc everything seems to be the same! 2019 to 2020 was the first year for the new style and I’d imagine a noticeable difference would be found there but nothing from 21 to 23.
The RS5 is absolutely amazing. I had a 2019 RS5 Sportback and loved every second of it. I upgraded to an M5 and still miss the utility and look of the RS5.
Liked and subscribed! Looking forward to all the content with the RS5. Any plans for mods? AWE is running their 15% sale right now. Track exhaust would really wake up that 2.9!
Thank you so much! When I was shopping the first car I went to see was a new m4 then saw the m5 then saw this and just felt this is the most practical for me and I love it. I’m undecided on the level of noise I wish to create with it being my daily driver but stay tuned I got a package coming tomorrow for it😉
Tough car to find, I would have considered one however my local Audi dealer said it would be a while and that they were selling them 10k over sticker where this was available and got them to sell it at msrp
I had this same decision to make...but I did get a 2023 RS3 last month for only 3% over MSRP in NYC, so to me was a better deal than getting an RS5 at MSRP.
@@Javaris-Jamar-Javarison-Lamar I agree a rs3 would have been a good buy and saved me a ton of money for sure. Just my gli was getting boring and I wanted something sick to build and drive during the winter for the channel and this is what my option was. How do you like the new rs3?
Thanks so much! I’m definitely gonna get something my Camaro has a max ceramic coating, might try the ppf this time gotta find a place that even does it!
@@everythingspeed6.2 most places that will do tinting will do ppf, but if you live rural look towards your next largest city. You might have to take a drive but long term it'll save your paint
@@everythingspeed6.2 usually just the front grill and lower portion of the doors and fenders. Do a quick RUclips search, its well worth the upfront cost to prevent Knicks and dents on a very pricey car
Please do not run this engine over 3k RPM for the first 1000 miles. It really needs running in or you will have problems. Coming from owning the 2.9 rs4 myself. The engine is a lot more sensitive than the other v6 in the Audi lineup.
Hey just got my Rs5 23 Daytona gray Coupe, I noticed that mine didn't come with the RS Runway cockpit dash, does yours have that or is it maybe something that pops up after a break in period ?
From what I understand the regular rs5 model doesn’t come with it but the 16k option with the ceramic breaks and all the other stuff would give u that specific dash
How's the ride quality? in 2020 I was on the fence between an RS5 SB and the SQ5 Prestige. In 2020, The RS5 SB ride quality was sorta poor whereas the SQ5 was comparatively a dream with the Sport Package (air suspension) so I went with the 2021 SQ5 (plus money on APR mods). Apparently Audi improved RS5 ride quality since 2021, so quite interested in a real-word review on ride quality.
Ride quality is better on the 2021+ RS5. I'm assuming you drove a 2019 RS5? There was no 2020. Anyway, it's not going to compare to an SUV with air suspension. This is a sports car, so you have to adjust your expectations.
@@chrisburry8147 Thanks. MY2021 for both; shopped in 2020, started making offers late 2020, bought in early 2021. The ride quality issue wasn't stiffness but more some weird for/aft bounciness/pitching. Have had stiff cars, and that wasn't it.
@@salninethousand2496 if you didn't like the ride in the 2021, nothing has changed for 2023. The Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) can be pretty harsh but also bouncy in Dynamic mode, and then too soft and bouncy in Comfort. When set to Auto it works best to balance out the ride.
@@salninethousand2496 I've been researching the crap out of this and the Macan GTS. Almost every reviewer says the same thing about the RS5 - the ride is not dampened correctly and is bouncy.
Pretty much same opinion, the car handles incredible I’ve taken some turns at certain speeds and couldn’t believe how planted it felt, however regular driving I find that it’s definitely bouncy, unbearable? No just noticeable
Nope I didn’t say it in the vid but I answered it in the comments, I am a salesman for a tree service company, I am blessed enough to have parents that allow me to live at home so I am able to get cool toys
Not at all, finding any hard to get car rn more then likely you’ll pay msrp before negotiations they were selling this car 5k over sticker I was able to get it for msrp
I enjoyed the video. Hello, I am Korean. First of all, congratulations on your purchase of the RS5! What surprised me was that a very young looking friend bought the Rs5. If you don't mind, can you tell me your age? Thank you. Please upload a lot of videos.❤
Lol bro turned off the commenting on the bad things about the car in the other video. He did it because they're all stupid reasons... Buys an RS car with a high performance twin turbo V6. Complains about price, being "too nice", fuel economy and not practical. Lol. Also no tuning options....
@@everythingspeed6.2 😆 I am doing my research hence me coming across this video. But def not just buying it without doing research lol. And def not making videos complaining about stuff that comes with the type of car it is. I will pick one up when I find the right one for me

I have the same car only Nardo Grey, and the black wheels. It's a beast! Enjoy 😊
It’s a sick car dude! Enjoying every minute of it
