Audi RS5 Sportback review | Find out why it's better than a BMW M3/M4!

[@Blessed.2.Teach.4God]

*This car has virtually perfect design language - A true masterpiece.*

[@Wiz33]

Finally a reviewer with common sense. Most of us does not have the experience of a professional driver or reviewer that gets to push their test car to the edge all the time. Yet the RS5 let you drive aggressively with much less risk of mishap unlike the M4 and C63S. Can't wait till I get past the 1000 miles break in on mine.

[@NobbyOnCars]

Thanks for the feedback. Jealous of your purchase!

[@ethanwaterfield3830]

There won’t be a mishap in an M car or an AMG if you understand car control...

[@Wiz33]

@@ethanwaterfield3830 There will be as people always overestimate their abilities. It'll be much easier to recover from suck mistake in the RS5.

[@ethanwaterfield3830]

@@Wiz33 yes because you’ll spend 90% of your time understeering in fast corners in the RS5. Not really the enthusiasts choice.

[@Wiz33]

@@ethanwaterfield3830 Have you driven one? Understeering is pretty much a thing of the past. Unless you're on a track, you'll almost never experience it as the torque vectoring sport diff and the automatic braking of the front inner wheel will take care of it most of the time out on the street. Watch this and see how many times the word "understeer" comes up on the track run: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZmUXpiDjr2cmMU&ab_channel=FifthGear

I saw one today....LOVE the gray color!!!!!!!!

[@gordonschrader6854]

Bobby, greetings from Canada 🇨🇦. I am the proud owner of a 2018 Model S5 Sportback. Even though I own it, I still can't wait till get behind the wheel and just drive. Around town or on the highway it's still a thrill to get in and fire her up. S series slots in between the RS series and the A5. It is just a fantastic automobile. Lusting to upgrade to an RS5 Sportback. 😈

[@NobbyOnCars]

Jealous! A great car to live with.

[@muhammadesasubedar9568]

Car is a nice car it is a dream car

[@KingFozzie1]

Awesome you got to drive it 👍

[@tap42al]

Beautiful car. Love it

[@warrenreidy7925]

Had a feeling you might put this on top of the performance saloon / coupe / sportback list. If I was buying I’d have the coupe as it looks far more aggressive but sure that’s 1st world problem 😄

[@NobbyOnCars]

Amazing car. Very little to catch it in the real world. Deffo a car for gates on your gaf I think!

[@brilliantlybnard_7600]

Beautiful

[@MrGrentch]

Very nice car indeed. One thing that has struck me with car reviews in the last few years is pretty much nobody pops the bonnet and gives a view of the engine. Something that was a near given in the past. I suppose because these days it's just a plastic cover?

[@NobbyOnCars]

It's funny you say that, when I was editing this video, I thought to myself *should've got an engine bay shot*! Mostly it is a plastic cover and I'm fairly certain this wouldn't have been any different. I've a Volvo Polestar vid coming soon and I did open the bonnet on that one as there as manually adjustable dampers.

[@slin4013]

So beautiful. Love everything about this car except it needed 500+ HP to stand out cuz it’s just not fast enough .

Nobby On Cars haha well yes, add another 50-60k to it !

[@uyazeantonio6072]

Have you driven one ? I would think not. Because literally EVERYONE that’s been in one of theese and driven them thinks otherwise

[@TheSavageB]

Thinking about buying one, a used 19 or would you go for the refresh at 2021? Id love a new gen rs3, but being in Canada, no bueno.

[@NobbyOnCars]

19! More depreciation done.

[@TaylorisCool649]

Like your personality:)

[@randyc8171]

How much of it's weight is plastic ? The Carbon fiber is just a thin applique.

[@MLGSU5P3CT]

It’s nice but I don’t know man, ///M is pure performance for the enthusiast

[@NobbyOnCars]

Yeah, fair comment. RS5 easier to live with on a daily basis though. I owned an e92 M3 myself so I lived with an M car for nearly 2 years.

[@MLGSU5P3CT]

@@NobbyOnCars how’d you like it , and what do u drive now

[@some_randomninja]

With dynamic mode OFF is fuel consumption half?

[@NobbyOnCars]

Anything with your right foot down is half. Fun though.

[@c8z06vitoria]

Ok

[@WiZe1972]

Very nice review! Being enjoying my RS5 Sportback since last December and I love every bit of it. You can see it on my channel :-)

[@NobbyOnCars]

Subbed! Looks class, what a car.

[@OscarPerez-yy7sh]

CUAL ES ESE COLOR EXACTAMENTE ? ES PRECIOSO

Lo llaman “nardo grey”

24,000 Euro in extras and yet they forgot the launch edition black 15 spoke rims.

Ripping review. Own the coup and looks better in real life. Not comparing it just happy l own it. Fun, fast, prestigious ( sorry sounds wanky but for $190k needs prestige ) Yah!

[@zroxor3801]

please if you can, never ever grade that no touch screen is a bad thing. It is a good thing, and thank you Audi for that, try out these cars for a trip and then tell me if you miss the touch screen, you would hate it, it is not practical and very very distracting. Doing something major during driving ? are you serious ? :( what do you want, type messages ?

[@brakesforsnakes757]

Everything touchscreen in my A6 Allroad was a nightmare and I could never get used to it.

[@zroxor3801]

@@brakesforsnakes757 yes it is just harder to navigate through menu over touchscreen. Only time this could work if you have touch screen buttons that are separate. But if something is displaying on the same screen and transitions between display screens then it becomes impossible to use it without taking a look. This is the same as messing with the phone while driving and making it 1st on the list to cause car accidents.

[@RarePixeling]

Your voice sounds like Jurgen Klopp

[@NobbyOnCars]

YNWA

[@rhys4998]

Sounds nothing like him 😂

[@activeseven]

There are indeed cup holders in the back seat.

[@davidpettit6749]

Not on that one. The rear armrest is different than mine. Clearly that one did not have cupholders as there are two very distinct spots on each side for cupholders, this one was all leather. It didn’t even have the storage compartment in the armrest.

[@eamonnmcdermott1939]

Seen this location on the cars Ireland channel!! As for the car, how long before you have an issue with it? Personally I'd rather buy some more reliable. Lexus LC is the answer, far better to look at and far more reliable even if it has less seats!

[@NobbyOnCars]

Totally different driving experience, the Lexus is a lovely grand tourer, this is for the petrol head. Have you had issues with an Audi or something that you say that?

[@eamonnmcdermott1939]

Nobby On Cars I agree completely they are two very different machines. Yes had an A4 S Line in the past. I purchased it when it was two years old and had a couple of issues with it. The ABS sensor and the DPF needed replacement even though it was driven a lot (at least it was still under warranty!)Been driving Mazdas ever since and they have been completely trouble free. However I would still love the Lexus, some day maybe.

[@clay7182]

I salivate to this car

[@emilsimov8955]

Ауди супер приятна кола която ти дава екстаз

[@classichits9131]

What’s the price ?

[@NobbyOnCars]

€118,000 or something mad for this one! Need to keep doing the lotto.

[@classichits9131]

Nobby On Cars thank you think imma buy it tho wonder if it can be ship to Jamaica

[@Fezleysnipes]

Dre Khalifa it’s actually around £68k ...../€78k

[@classichits9131]

Ad Fez thank you ✊🏽

[@NobbyOnCars]

Ad Fez not in Ireland it’s not. The car in the video cost almost €140,000.

[@craigorford9932]

Not so sure on the colour,would be better in red

[@8weapons]

Hmmm still not a M3/ M4 and nowhere near the dynamics

[@NobbyOnCars]

maybe so but as a former E92 M3 owner, this is more usable in all conditions. No V8 though.
