IMO Audi makes some of the best looking cars out there. Unfortunately that's about all the good i can say for them. Expensive price tag and re sale value/depreciation is horrible(at least in the US). Also parts/repair costs are extremely high and there are tons of things on these cars that can break and do often. I know its a luxury car but there is so many electrical addons that are so unnecessary that end up causing too many expensive problems down the road. If i were to ever get one id lease it. Wouldnt want to deal with the headaches after 100k miles. Beautiful car though!
Neeno I would have to agree for the average person, but as a mechanic they’re a gem! My opinion has changed now after having one as a project car, they’re well engineered and no more difficult to work on then anything else once you learn how.
Got on here 4 minutes after the video was posted and STILL wasn't first. Anyway...I LOVED your graphics representation of the car farts. I literally fell off my chair laughing. I've been having a rough couple of months, so that was GREATLY appreciated.
@@SarahnTuned I'm a motoring journalist in Ireland and was testing the new Polo GTI last week with DSG box, it certainly 'Giveth the Beans' as it DSG farted all day long ;-)
@@SarahnTuned The Polo GTI is so much fun, it would remind you of a MK2 Golf GTI but with 200bhp 2.0-litre turbo it's crazy. Not much grip in the wet though and it's always wet in Ireland. We have an S1 too, but Audi are supposed to be releasing an RS1 this year, 280bhp quattro will be insane
rafconrafcon I’ve never understood that mentality, like, I can’t treat someone online any different then I would in person. It just doesn’t register in my mind as making any sense to “troll” someone.
Sarah that's a nice car I like the interior you should get one and you may not be a model but you certainly could be because you're gorgeous and you look like a model
I sent you links for your SW20 from my google drive... Hope you got it! And btw, I'm loving your car reviews! I sent the links to your listed Gmail address.
its to make the dashboard feel less "bulky" if they were to enclose the screen in the dash. having a lower dashboard and just a screen sticking out gives it an illusion that the dash is even smaller than it already is. the screens are usually directly mounted to the dash frame and are very sturdy.
Had one for a week as a rental. Really impressed with it and did a 100 mile loop test on the highway to see what mileage it was capable of....41mpg! Really like this car.
You my dear are stunning, the car not so much. Imports are not my thing, then again not really into to many new cars period. You are the model mechanic....or mechanic model.....or sexy mechanic that looks like a model.....ok this is getting awkward so i will just stop.
I have always found it interesting how Audi uses their 2.0 Turbo Four in so many vehicles. It's almost like they don;t want to spend the R&D money designing other engines. I'm not an Audi fan, but Sarah's reviews are so much fun I just had to watch.
Just bought the 2019 A5 Sportback and absolutely love it. Bought the black optic package which really spruces up the exterior and gives you 19" wheels. Couldn't be happier and btw, I love the dynamic driving mode!
@Anthony Z I can't compare since I didn't drive the S5 but I feel the A5 has plenty of power for me. BTW, we have speed limits so who needs all that power.
Sarah -n- Tuned having all sisters this is great. But I really wish it would be easier to find a lady that’s into this stuff for myself hahah 😍. Great review Sarah 🍻🇨🇦👋
I have a'19 A4 S line with black optics and B&O. I am in agreeance with the B&O sound, I thought the basic Audi Concert in my B5.5 allroad was better. I might have liked the Sportback better than A4 but it's what I found so I'll live.
Unfortunately, Quattro is now just the Haldex system that is FWD bias. Even the new RS3 and RS5 are now Haldex. They shouldn't even call it Quattro anymore. The mechanical, torsen system that is AWD, all of the time, is being phased out by Audi.
matt Yeah, but even Quattro with Ultra is still a longitudinal layout. I’m sure aftermarket companies will figure out a way to hack it and/or offer upgrades. I read that Jalopnik article too.
An base Audi A5 S-Line with Quattro costs 59k Euro here in The Netherlands... :( With all the options featured on your car added to it, it costs well over 65k here in The Netherlands. Why are cars so much more expensive here??? T____T
I can tell you are slowly being converted into a VAGinite or is it VAGatarian. Careful, if you keep wearing sweaters with mini skirts and boots, your view count will increase. No hose/leggings = confidence. I still prefer my hatchbacks in the form of a wagon. Looking forward to the raptor review. Cheers.
Think... THINK... Your TT has permanently on quattro where as the A5 Sportback only has quattro on demand unless you go for the S/RS model where you get the full quattro system... Loved the review Fresh Technical but not nerdie and Engaging loved it!
ua-cam.com/video/564QM7HNi7I/v-deo.html Which is exactly why I don't like the dash...I actually remember cars from the 80s with those faux wood grain dashes and they look cheap as hell to me. I'm having flashbacks of my parent's Mercury Grand Marquis. Sure, it was great for road trips and a lot of fun, but keep that s#$% out of my new Audi!...
Sarah, it seems that you have some good knowledge and appetite about cars, but why try so hard to be cool?! You already are a cool girl.Just the fact that you like to make hands dirty as a car mechanic it does automatically make you a cool person. But, when reviewing a car, a pair of blue jeans and flat shoes will do the ''trick''. That said, good use of the camera and nice review.
Wow you look really good Ms Sarah... next to that two bean Owedee. I like the front inside except for that silly girly shifter where you press a button to park. The google map dash without showing trash is very cool. While the rear with it spacious capacity for laying down the seats and taking your date for a nap somewhere is great, I don't like the look of those rear pillars (blind spots). The outside is ho hum and the 2.0 Liter motor says its a girl despite that manly scuba blue paint.
What’s wrong with wagons? Wagons are cool. More room for friends and beers. That intro was hilarious too. Your TT isn’t a turd Sarah. Want to check out a real turd, come drive my ‘91 Dakota lol.
Another cool review, Sarah! I also saw this video today and thought you would enjoy seeing it. It's a 1989 Audi V8. ua-cam.com/video/Tsev1z_mJSs/v-deo.html
It’s totally lame that in an over 50k car, a plastic cover doesn’t even close correctly, c’mon Audi! You can do better for the buck! It’s a no-no car for me, sorry Audi!
My 2018 S-Line Q5 with the same engine gets 1000 km on a full tank of gas but I didn't know about the farts. I am going to have to drive with the radio off and the windows open, it's only -18c and a blizzard, what could possible go wrong.
Great review. Sometimes I wonder if you could even make an awesome review about a pile of dirt. You are funny, great looking and have a superb pasdion for cars.
The EA888 engine that has a weak cooling system that is prone to leaking there for needing to replace the water pump and thermostat?......does anyone know if this that been sorted yet with the newer revised models?
I bet the Border Patrol Agents thought she was gonna be another one of those knuckleheads trying to make a video saying the Border Patrol checkpoint is violating their rights. I’m sure they were relieved to see she was just reviewing a car!
A5 was killer you look gorgeous, ur boots are hot....yo Boader Raptor would be soooo sick, maybe you could wear a cop girl outfit, short skirt and some black Patton leather boots lol I mean just an idea
I think you be a mind blowing both babe Sarah. You can talk-the-talk as well as walk-the-walk but only problem is you take all the attention away from the car ;) Love your Work
8:07 Pretty white girl asks weird question of border patrol: Let me see what I can do assist you. Literally anyone else: Get on the fucking ground now!
Sarah deer you may not be able to afford a 56k car right now but if you take up modeling as gorgeous as you are 56k chump change and you already have in that for presentation so you're a natural you go get that money girl maybe you'll be riding in an Audi R8 yeah you look good in one of those
This was a really informative video. When I bought my car, I thought it waa brilliant but had never seen a review of it-until I watched it review! My car is quantum grey and it’s perfect for all the reasons you highlighted. Thanks for this review.
I like the beans score and all but you might want to add categories for said beans....I hate to suggest Doug's scoring because it can be a little hard to follow but maybe you could have a fun chili bean count for performance and a Lima bean score for daily use. great review though - thanks
Tell your left foot to Heal...heel !!! Get it ?? Technology while awesome is not something you will spend much time looking at while driving (also more to go wrong). Reason I got my 2018 AMG is the fact that they are beautifully Analog/basic. I hate, emphasis on HATE, that AUDI hood with new extra special front-end. Boo !!!. Nevertheless, a 4 Cylinder in a car this size is unacceptable. On a side note the new MB A Class is $50k with 188HP. I just threw up a little bit in my mouth. People need to shop around . WE NEED AN RS4 WAGON .
Thanks for mentioning our video! I really appreciate it. Glad you like it.
Deutsche Auto Parts heck yeah! That video had me in tears laughing at all the puns.
Deutsche Auto Parts ja, mir ist aufgefallen, dass sie den markennamen erwähnt hat!
"It's starting to get windy and I smell dog poop." What other car review contains this kind of technical data? Sarah, you ARE the beans.
Sarah, how do you feel about electric superchargers?
What’s with the tablet slapped on the dash? It seems like the engineers run out of idea.
I want the RS version of this car sooo bad!! Time for some lottery tickets.
I love Audi's That car was awesome

These rear seats fold down giving your more room for even more activities ... ;)
Hi
Got on here 4 minutes after the video was posted and STILL wasn't first. Anyway...I LOVED your graphics representation of the car farts. I literally fell off my chair laughing. I've been having a rough couple of months, so that was GREATLY appreciated.
"the rear seats for fold down for even more activities" hahahaha
Sarah, you are so funny and entertaining to watch.....Keep up the great videos!!! :))))
DSG farts love it LOL great review, you should be on Top Gear or the Grand Tour. So much more entertaining
Darren Liggett best part of these cars is hearing that sound when you shift! 😂
No way, I got a HEART from Sarah -n- Tuned, that's made me day :-)
@@SarahnTuned I'm a motoring journalist in Ireland and was testing the new Polo GTI last week with DSG box, it certainly 'Giveth the Beans' as it DSG farted all day long ;-)
Darren Liggett That’s rad! I wish we had the Polo and A1 here in the states.
@@SarahnTuned The Polo GTI is so much fun, it would remind you of a MK2 Golf GTI but with 200bhp 2.0-litre turbo it's crazy. Not much grip in the wet though and it's always wet in Ireland. We have an S1 too, but Audi are supposed to be releasing an RS1 this year, 280bhp quattro will be insane
It is so nice to see you doing reviews again! Love your reviews. Nice beauty shots btw! Super nice scenery.
Heidi and Franny's Garage HEHE SO MUCH SUN😂
Sarah found a parts car for the TT ...
@Expert Commenter No, I have never had a problem with Audi. The TT's PO was not kind to it, so it could use the parts.
Homeland Raptor review you say? I will be back.
Holy crap, I think this was the first time I saw you in profile. Your model beautiful!
A.J. Green Result if getting made fun of constantly, I’m super self conscious.
@@SarahnTuned A lot of pretty women are self conscious. I hope you get over that. The compliment was meant sincerely.
Just remember that people online are usually cruel or trolling. Your reviews truly are entertaining!
rafconrafcon I’ve never understood that mentality, like, I can’t treat someone online any different then I would in person. It just doesn’t register in my mind as making any sense to “troll” someone.

james bradley I cant afford a $56k car! Lol
Sarah! A beautiful mechanic model!
I sent you links for your SW20 from my google drive... Hope you got it! And btw, I'm loving your car reviews! I sent the links to your listed Gmail address.
Don't take this the wrong way, but you remind me of a tall Velma if Velma was part of the Addams family...
Morpheas I do have a slight goth side lol 😂
I hate the trend of screens sitting up on the dash like a teenager glued their i-pad to their mom's car.
The best it New Bentley GT where you have 3 rotating choices. Touch Screen, Physical Dials or NOTHING.
ua-cam.com/video/JZNGniDpJ-s/v-deo.html
It is not a trend , it is just cheap.
its to make the dashboard feel less "bulky" if they were to enclose the screen in the dash. having a lower dashboard and just a screen sticking out gives it an illusion that the dash is even smaller than it already is. the screens are usually directly mounted to the dash frame and are very sturdy.
It's the law on new cars. There is a formula to figure it out but basically it has to be a certain height with regards to an average line of sight.
I’m good with the screen but I’m not good with it failing to fold down and click in flush to the dash. Like this is the reason I bought an 80s car.
9:07 ACC, isn't that Adapative Cruise Control?
You need more Audis on your channel. Maybe RS6? Its comming back to US I think :)
Had one for a week as a rental. Really impressed with it and did a 100 mile loop test on the highway to see what mileage it was capable of....41mpg! Really like this car.
I think this girl either does not get any at home or gets it all the time lol She has no middle ground
Sarah you are such a Hottie, and funny love your quirky humour
You my dear are stunning, the car not so much. Imports are not my thing, then again not really into to many new cars period. You are the model mechanic....or mechanic model.....or sexy mechanic that looks like a model.....ok this is getting awkward so i will just stop.
Cute girls in nice cars.... you’re onto something here I think!
Damn I wish you were my girl. So fuckin hot and into cars. Perfect.

How much is ur insurance?
Great review with nice closeups.... a car mechanic that looks like a model....best of both worlds .....we love your creativity that's why we tune in
We tune in for the "plot" ( ͡°╭͜ʖ╮ ͡°)
Huzzaahhh ヽ(◕ᴥ◕)ノ
More space for activities ( with sweetheart ) Sarah said 🌚
Um Actually, Quattro is the name for Audi's various all-wheel drive systems not the engine. Great fun review nonetheless
Just love your boot review. Never ever seen a pair of legs hanging out the boot done with such class.
Sooo good too see a girl doing this stuff!!!
It's good to see both genders doing this stuff :)
I have a good feeling for our future generation 🙂
She's been doing this for a while. Go and binge her channel. She does good work!
Civicky I agree it is nice to see girls doin repair work it shows how much diversity the world can have. If people embrace the thought
Sarah -n- Tuned having all sisters this is great. But I really wish it would be easier to find a lady that’s into this stuff for myself hahah 😍. Great review Sarah 🍻🇨🇦👋
With your looks and at 5'11" you could absolutely be a car model or any other kind of model. Thanks for another great car review. Appreciated.
The sound system is insane, you crazy
Just for your info: S-Line is only the interior/exterior line. Separate from that is the S5, a 6 Cyl. quite sporty car under RS5 you mentioned.
Absolutely stunning.
Car's not terrible either.
A lot of power between your legs....kool
I have a'19 A4 S line with black optics and B&O. I am in agreeance with the B&O sound, I thought the basic Audi Concert in my B5.5 allroad was better. I might have liked the Sportback better than A4 but it's what I found so I'll live.
10:15 that transition on point 👌

Border Patrol!!?? Did you drive into Mexico to test the Audi's drug mule capabilities? You are thorough!!
JWelchon like 20 minutes from the boarder yeah.
Vehicle reviewer says “Picnic approved” and “activities”... noting that legs won’t go numb sticking out the back... yup, I’m at Sarah’s channel 🕺🏽
Great Review, Sarah! Dig the outfit, boots & nail color! Classic Sarah Narration!
love your face. The car is nice too

Neat Car sounds a lot like but almost as NICE as my BMW 430i X Drive w/ a M Sport Package . What a auto, anyway nice job on the review.
Two scorching beauties!
lol. Yes model. Model mechanic videographer entertainer is so wayyy cooler. Tnx for being different.
Think... THINK... Your TT has permanently on quattro where as the A5 Sportback only has quattro on demand unless you go for the S/RS model where you get the full quattro system... Loved the review Fresh Technical but not nerdie and Engaging loved it!
It reminds me of a Ford Fusion the way it looks. The Audi is much nicer though, of course.
If your love for rally cars could manifest in a review of an actual rally car, that would be most awwsome.

Which is exactly why I don't like the dash...I actually remember cars from the 80s with those faux wood grain dashes and they look cheap as hell to me. I'm having flashbacks of my parent's Mercury Grand Marquis. Sure, it was great for road trips and a lot of fun, but keep that s#$% out of my new Audi!...
I can't decide which is more beautiful - the person or the car.
Nevertheless, a good and surprisingly practical non-BS review.
Great review, Sarah. Looks like a really nice car. That outtake, "I smell dog poop" has got me laughing my ass off! Keep up the great work.
As usual, Sarah, you delivered the goods with interest, brilliant review. Can't wait for the next one 😀😀
Sarah, it seems that you have some good knowledge and appetite about cars, but why try so hard to be cool?!

Ok STILL don't understand the Bean Scale. Is 1 bean good, is 5 beans good? That A5 is pretty sweet and you really liked it, but only 2 beans...?
I just bought a new one
Good review. The boots didn't quite work for me. But the rest of the outfit looked nice.

50 k for a Audi A5 👍
50 k for a Ford Edge ST👎
I would call it honey can I borrow your car. Because my wife loves the color blue.
Or 35k for a Civic Type R....
👍
Sarah marry me!
Sarah you are so funny. And yes you are beautiful enough to be a model. I've loved all your videos I've got to watch. Better than TV.
This was a really informative video. When I bought my car, I thought it waa brilliant but had never seen a review of it-until I watched it review! My car is quantum grey and it’s perfect for all the reasons you highlighted. Thanks for this review.
Everyone in the comments is going gaga over the girl while I'm just trying to learn more about my new 2020 A5
I like the beans score and all but you might want to add categories for said beans....I hate to suggest Doug's scoring because it can be a little hard to follow but maybe you could have a fun chili bean count for performance and a Lima bean score for daily use. great review though - thanks
Looks great on the outside. Audi wins, but I'll put my money on an Accord Sport 2.0. Comes in manual, hauls ass and doesn't cost 56k.
Another great review Sarah! I hope you can keep doing this stuff forever- I look forward to every new video you put out! 2 thumbs up!
Lee Johnson I’ll be taking a 3 week break from reviews until I get the next vehicle late Feb. It’s the model year changeover right now for cars.
I'm a subscriber to your channel, so I meant all of your vids- not just the car reviews. :)
The B & O system in my 09 Audi A5 was amazing.
I just realized that you didn't show us "Giving it the beans" or the brake test???? :(
Like the school girl outfit, but the nuns will never let you wear a skirt that short. haha
Marry me please?
I'm not rich, but I'll find a way if that is what it takes!
Also, can you review a Stinger please?
P.s. I wish border patrol was that nice north of Yuma... yikes.
Found your videos late last night absolutely love him you go girl happy Tuesday it is May 3rd

I personally don't like audi interior they feel really cheap for a premium vehicle and is not really durable
You know what TFSI stands for don't you.......... it stands for .....totally fucking shit innit
Two beans Sarah, I'm very surprised. Looks like a 3.5 bean car to me?
