  • It's been years since we've had the chance to film and review an Audi. Here is the 2023 Audi RS5 Competition Sportback. It has a twin-turbo 2.9L V6 engine that makes 444 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. The Competition package provides some tweaks to the transmission (faster shifting), reduces the weight by 35lbs and gives you some exterior goodies.

    As a former owner of an Audi S5, having driven the new Audi RS5 Sportback for a few days, here are my takes. As far as the positives - it's pretty fast, has secure handling, and an attractive style. As far as the negatives - an absolutely back breaking ride. It was so stiff, I couldn't drive in it for past 2 hours. You can feel every single bump in your back. My friend noticed it too! The seats are super tight and cramped, and exhausts you quickly on extended drives. The pedals are straight out of VW. If you aren't using launch control, add about a second to that 0-60 acceleration time. The exhaust is noticeable, but doesn't have any interesting sounds, just some pops and crackles in a muted fashion. The infotainment lacks physical dials, and you can't connect two different phones simultaneously, like an Android and iPhone at the same time like in BMW - and use one for CarPlay and the other for Bluetooth music. The 360 camera quality is not the best, and the angles look awkward on the sides. There is no 3D view like in the S6. The self parking is also far less advanced than BMW as well. The Harman Kardon audio system sounds OK at best, and doesn't feel any different from the audio in a base Q5. At higher triple speeds on curvy highways, you will feel some understeer. The steering wheel could be more thick and sporty, and doesn't differ at all from an A5.
    P.S - My RS5 review is on my channel, if anyone is interested, along with 0-60 dragy tests.

    Waiting for my Ascari Blue RS5 Comp! Build out in Nov this year. The reason I went for it - it does not have the M3 face and that its not a 4-cylinder AMG. :)
    Also - the Competition option is 10k USD now. So doesn’t start at 78k (78k + 10k + other options) Competition option used to be 16k but this year Audi was not able to gather the materials needed for the ceramic brakes for any of their RS models.
    Other things not covered in the video for Competition option
    - Reduction of 35 pounds of sound deadening material between the engine and the cabin, which means its louder
    - Those gorgeous competition wheels reduce 4 pounds on each corner
    - Competition comes with Matte carbon fiber inside and outside whereas standard comes with gloss just inside
    - Competition comes with sport direct steering
    - Different shift tuning also
    - Standard ride height is 10 mm lower and can be lowered to a 20 mm total with the adjustable coil-over
    Imo a whole diff car than the standard RS5
    Gotta cover more stuff man! But great editing/transitions in the video

Drove the RS5 Competition and it was much better with improved steering and handling but not any faster. Test drove a BMW M3 Competition RWD and bought it immediately. The M3 Competition is superior to the RS5 including the RS5 Competition.

    Audi at least needs a black rim option for the RS 5, and also for the S3, and S5 and half their cars. the rim options for the non competition RSs are not good, that 80s wanna be rim is really bad just don't fit the car. They also need that Kialami green color as an option for the RS 5. that color is amazing. or what happened to that real nice green that was in 2022 on the RS 5? it was deeper with a gold flake.. that was a nice color. anyway, black rims for the cars...all black.
