This was a great review, Eddie. I was looking at potentially trading my 2023 Golf R for a 2021 S6 (used, new is too expensive with too much depreciation) but after driving it, I liked my Golf R driving experience so much better. Also, it's a massive car, but not as spacious as you'd expect a car this big to be. Ended up trading my Golf R for an RS3 lol. It's a nice car though.
Do you recommend getting a daily? I am considering a 992 carrera and will probably keep for a year before upgrading so not sure if I should get a daily first that I can keep for awhile. I WFH and drive around 6-8k miles a year Edit: *Get a daily before getting a sports car*. I love the s7 but Im the same way where I would want the top trim.
now in the UK the new 2024/2025 audi s7 is diesel. we only had the petrol version upto the last version of the c7 platform...also s4,s5,s6 are also diesel
Audi needs to reinstate a detuned 4.0 L Twin Turbo V8, as in the SQ7 and SQ8 models. Better yet, likewise offer a future S7 Avant (estate wagon) with the same detuned V8 for the US.
@@EddieXI have, and it's still not available. I mean, the standard 16 speaker B&O system is very good, but I know how much better that 19 speaker system is.
Those are some pretty different options. I haven’t driven the newest RS3 but I imagine it’s way more firm. Depends if you want comfy cruiser or pocket rocket
Sadly, newer model Audis look very cheap. I've actually mistaken a few of them for VWs. The older A6 and RS8 models were just so amazingly classy and stylish. Not sure what went wrong with Audi, but their styling is going down there toilet.
And yet it’s still stunning. Audi has done a great job of continually improving it. You should experience driving one. For a luxury/sport sedan, it’s still leads in it’s class. 😎
@@lifestyle_ofagent I’m talking about the two center screens. They need to change that look. It looks dated now. I know one of their new EV SUVs has a new horizontal screen and passenger screen.
NICE VIDEO EDDIE! 👍 GREAT OPTION FOR A DAILY DRIVER.
THAT B-ROLL & MUSIC EDIT WAS SAVAGE GEESE-ESQUE. 😎
Thanks!!

A 992 carrera is very daily drivable! If you don’t often need a ton of passenger or cargo space, go for the fun sports car
The whole time you were comparing prices I was thinking I’d just get an rs5 over this. 100% agree about the rs6 avant
now in the UK the new 2024/2025 audi s7 is diesel. we only had the petrol version upto the last version of the c7 platform...also s4,s5,s6 are also diesel

That would be pretty fantastic. I feel like they are gonna keep the v8 for RS7(Avante) and just give us E-tron options 🙃
How did you get the 3D Advanced B&O system? I can't seem to option it on the website on the S models, but I can on the RS models.
Uh. This one was built by Audi as a press car so I’m not sure. Have you configured the car as a prestige model? That’s my only guess
@@EddieXI have, and it's still not available. I mean, the standard 16 speaker B&O system is very good, but I know how much better that 19 speaker system is.
In the US it’s standard on the Premium Plus and Prestige trim levels. 😎
They still haven't updated interior?
excellent review and analysis!
Great review
For a DD would you go RS5 or S7?
If I have a dedicated sportscar, S7, otherwise all in one car DD would be RS5!
this vs. RS3 for 1-car garage?
Those are some pretty different options. I haven’t driven the newest RS3 but I imagine it’s way more firm. Depends if you want comfy cruiser or pocket rocket
@@EddieX True, true...pretty different. Thanks for taking the time to reply!
This Audi doesn’t have the sport package, the sport package comes with the red brake calipers and a sport exhaust
im between this or the bmw m4 comp
Depends if you want sportier or more luxury well rounded
Hmmm that S badge on the grille looks like someone stole the number 7 from it.. 🤔

very nice!
You talk too much and too fast.
this car looks like its from 2014
Previous gen RS7 looks 9 billion times better and has the motor that these are supposed to have
So true 😂

Stock brother
Though classic ..🔥
That interior is so old.
They just changed it 4 years ago
Feels pretty modern to me
@@EddieX It was introduced with the 2017 A8.
@Kenyon712 that model was on the old platform fam! The new models inside and out came out 2020 but of course that model comes out 2019 previous year
