RS5? Yikes..over 500 ft lbs of torque..and AWD?

Kiemyster · 05-14-2007, 04:17 PM

judging by BMW's current preformance benchmarks, and Audi's preformance benchmarks, BMW does not have to worry. at all.

M3 all the way baby!

ok. Sorry, but until the RS5 has been tested, how can you talk about its PERformance benchmarks? I've loved BMW's my entire life and that Audi makes me wanna give that all up. Also, dont be blind to the fact that styling wise, Audi wups up on BMW's everyday of the week. The only car that looks better is the E92.

MTV Cribs donated those wheels to Audi for this photo shoot.

well if it follows the trend of the RS4.... it will be the second most overpriced car in the world.

Based on what? It has power, luxury, styling, etc. Why is it that just because we all own BMW's that some have to be so ignorant to the fact that its a BADASS car? By the way, the new M3 isnt going to be much different in price, so tell me again which one is overpriced.

SpecC · 05-15-2007, 07:32 AM

i hope we see reviews of the M3 and the RS5 to come instead of a billion threads of comparison

TMNT · 05-15-2007, 01:05 PM

Badass, but I would expect this car to be pushing close to $80,000 or high 70's

Unfortunately WAAAAAYY out of my price range

ArmyBimmerDude · 05-15-2007, 03:45 PM

If it does low 70's then I think I may go for it. Before anyone says anything, I'm in the military so we get it a lil less here in germany

Ryan 330i · 05-15-2007, 08:39 PM

since i wont be able to afford it. i have to settle for the S5.
i am only getting it for the DRL's anyway.

sdiver68 · 05-16-2007, 07:55 AM

Knowing Audi pricing, i would be shocked at anything less than $85K. Audi had a good product in the RS4 until they priced them at $72K.

ArmyBimmerDude · 05-16-2007, 10:22 AM

Well if its $85k then screw that. If it was $72k, then fo shizzle. I really think that styling wise, both exterior(yes I know most likely that audi used the E92 as a base for its design) and interior, it blows away BMW. It's a 335 or a RS5 for me. I'm not going to settle for the S5. Not worth it.

ironic · 05-16-2007, 03:33 PM

wow that looks good

I'm sorry but Audi didnt base their design on the E92, they made a concept in 2003 for the A5/S5 platform....

Yeah you're right. I just saw a thread talking about it. I just kept hearing everyone here talk about how they based it off of the E92.
