The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones. If you wear headphones, your mind won't be blown, but it will go, "woah."
I'm also the producer for the Winding Road UA-cam Channel:
/ windingroadmagazine
TheTopher on UA-cam is the place where I share my personal automotive (and some other) adventures. Whether it's about any of my personal cars or reviews on weekly test vehicles, the goal is to give you an idea of what a certain car is like to drive and live with. Most of my videos are filmed in POV, with my clothes on, and (for like the 5th time) with in-ear binaural audio, - Авто та транспорт
Correction - in the beginning I say 2017, this is actually a 2018
I know that she was going back and her home 🏠 she has to get home 🏡 she has to get home 🏠 night
Up and stuff stuff and I have stuff for her food 🥘 she will go to go go get back you can go go to go
So A and S Audi cars both get brembo's?
How much does it cost? (In dollars $)
TheTopher do u live in ann arbor i see my hometown in this vid
-Looks super sleek
-Sounds great for an inline 4
-Great acceleration

I want one
Whiskey Bottle Proper 12 whiskey is better
Finally, someone that's not SCARED to push the car to it's limits and give a wonderful commentary! Nice video.
lol fro real man feel in love with that sound pedal to the metal !
@@veedog5384 its audio boosted but still:)
Not the first POV video I've watched today 😏
Rofl
Hahaha,nice1.
Andrew Schuster lol😉. I know what you mean
Andrew
Andrew Schuster your profile pic fits perfectly👍🏻
Audi is some of the best engineering, I'm impressed.
It is so until your DSG transmission goes bad. Had 2 VWs and 1 Audi and they all had at least 1 DSG transmission replaced under warranty(thank God) - my 2015 had to get that replaced twice over the course of 62k miles. Now I've had my X3 for about 57k miles and the transmission has never even jerked on me.
@LUKE SXHC How could you get it all the way through 300k kilometers without replacing the dual clutch? The owner's manual itself says it must be replaced every 200k kilometers(but I've literally never seen anyone get past 80-100k without having to get it replaced, to be honest).
@LUKE SXHC Probably you had luck and he had bad luck.
@@felipeteixeira7169 passat b7 2011 170hp, 2,0tdi with highline paket and DSG. 200k kilometers right now, and i dont have any problems with my DSG. the trick is to FLUSH the oil dont just change it you have to flush the dsg-oil. if you only remove the screw and let it flow out for example we have 10 liters in there, atlreast 4-5 liters will stay in. so the old oil is mixing with the new oil and thats not good for the dsg. so always flush it. here in germany i paid for everything (including filters and new oil, working hours were 3) 320€. and you really feel how good it shifts after.
@@felipeteixeira7169 You have to be preventative with that DSG bud
This is my favorite POV driving video ever.
5:00 - 5:30 is the best part of the entire video, wish that was me behind the wheel 😩
Perfect video to wake up to!! I just picked up my $400 dollar Civic and I can't wait to go for a drive by myself lol!
what?? you can buy a civic with $400 dollar in where you live? :o
Bron Karbunov I live in Canada. Well I got it from an old lady, it's in really good shape, no rust.. everything works, the only thing that sucks is the 12.2 second 0-60 time lol.
albert7139 400$? It must be from the 90s
55 hp im guessing xd
Hux nope, it's a 2000. Has 240,000 miles but has no rust interior is mint, ice cold A/C too.
I still get immense pleasure from driving my 3 year old 2014 A5. It's just such a satisfying car
Audi ASMR
Forces de Libération du Québec lmao right
Your video helped inspired me to buy this car, thanks. 2 years and twenty thousand miles in, best consumer decision I ever made.
Still got it? How is fuel economy on it?
this car is amazing! 4 cylinder sounds like it has a v6.
I love that you kinda of thrash on these cars. Nothing gives you as good of an idea of what a car is like to drive than a solid POV! Yours are the best by far.
You know what really grinds my gears?
Undertaking!!!!
I can feel it how good its audi felt like while you drive...
The best car channel ever! I enjoy your videos alot mate! Excellent review of the vehicle, detailed explanation and just fun to watch. Well done mate!
Such a great review video. It felt as if I was test driving it. I love the clever first person view. I've been wanting this version of an Audi for awhile now and this video reminded me why I fell I'm love with Audis in the first place. Yes, this is also the car for me
Lacita Fleming Did you manage to get it? :)
Wow. This just popped into my recommendation and I think I've officially found my new addiction. These videos are strangely satisfying to watch.
I agree. It’s calming! The scenery..sunset is beautiful Lol. And I feel like I’m in the car with him
I like that this is not your everyday car review but that he pushes the car a little...very nice
These videos are way tooo addictive! I thought im not that much of a car guy, but man these videos are making me one
Just wrong how you get half a million of views and "only" 27K subscribers. Come on, let's give him some proper love, the guy deservers it!
Man, you really are doing some super nice work. Keep it up!
That launch was impressive! Really good vehicle.
Looks amazing.
Great video, first time I'm really impressed by the way someone does a POV-video. Thumbs up
That sound, when you click on any button ,are so nice...
the highway turn was so satisfying
I love this a car. Bought it 1 year old. Now has 36,000 miles on it and it runs like a dream!
Great video! Keep it up
Thank God you actually test the car whilst show us the ar amazing vid bro
Im getting the 2018 version of this in the 1.4 engine range! This video really has got me excited.
I love Audi’s and this car is just beautiful
literally my favourite car now
Just picked up my 2019 A5 Sportback 45TFSI and its a blast. 10/10 love
Ugh I have a 2009 A5 I’m so jealous but I still love mine and she still looks brand new 😍😍😍 great video man
For some reason this is very relaxing to me
Best car review I’ve ever seen, Hands down.
The interior of these newer Audi's is really nice
Early evening sunset is the perfect time to review cars, Gopher.
It kills 2 birds with 1 stone. If I may
Just watched 2 of your pov vid's and imediately subscribed!
You're right that the screen *should* tuck away. I've been saying this since I found out it couldn't do it. When it's off the cockpit would look so much cleaner without it.
+MrCarGuy20 the weird thing is the Q7 I have this week tucks away on shutdown and when you push the button. It does clean things up a bit, especially with the Audi Virtual Cockpit.
and doesn't the screen tuck away in the A3?
A3, Q7, A6, A7 - it does. New Q5,A4,A5 - it doesn't. Those practical Germans, they did it because they found out that people rarely tuck it away...big mistake if you ask me, I would play with it all the time lol
Hey
Screen doesn't hide. US regulations require that the reversing camera must be turned on as soon as reverse gear i engaged. Audi(and all other brands) in Europe also have a screen on top - by your law in the US we have this screen in Europe too.
Greetings from Poland.
Wait, cars are REQUIRED to have backup cameras now or what?! What happened to just looking over your damn back
so many reviewers baby the car you did a good job showing its acual abillitly
I have a 2016 and it’s literally the love of my life 🤩
Best review I've seen so far !!! Thanks !
Top notch quality!
I want to see more of this :)
Wow looks like a great improvement from previous models
What a beautiful car. Love the power. What a dream
finally a guy pushes the car, subbed.
Silver looking car... gosh..
Makes cars look sooo much older
БΞΛТ ТłMΞ Black will be better
absolutely
БΞΛТ ТłMΞ I don’t see that... but okay
in a bad way?
Nothing could be blander , except perhaps a silver Camry.
Interior is so so beautiful
Audi just has some gorgeous interiors.
this is perfect lol, i came to see performance and luxury and u showed me the performance and luxury... thank u lmao
Lmao love your comment
What a great video! Thanks for an outstanding review and drive.
Sounds pretty good actually.
Amazing review. Great work!!
Really couldn't care less what others say. This is my dream car. Love my good ol' S-classe, but there's something about the A5 that just makes me warm and fuzzy inside
I'm new here. This video had great quality. And me not too familiar with Audi, I've learned something today.
Nice review 👍I ordered my A5 which arrives in August, looking forward to it.
That’s a beautiful car. The silver is gorgeous
Nice drifting! love the sound of it.
very nice video, calm and good testing and showing.. thank you
It is a great car. My sisters boyfriend uses this car and whenever i sit in it its just awesome feeling
I currently have a 2013, shes getting towards 115,000 miles but i love her :)
Damn bro/ you take the car to the limit. WELL DONE
That by far is one of my faves .
I love the indicator sound
you right that it's easy to drive, my dad got an A5 too, but as a "sportback" with 270hp and four doors. So last week we went to a place were underage people are able to drive. so i could drive even i am only 16 years old (in germany you must be 18 to drive) and it was so mich fun to drive it! Btw you got one sub more, this channel looks awesome ;)
That transmission is awesome.
Great video. And the A5 looks great in silver!
awesome car and awesome review! you earned a subscriber
I love my dsg quirks, man I need to get one of these.
I agree with what you said my dad bought an Audi A5 yesterday and we both love it
Will 1509 I wish I was blessed like y'all
thank you so much, i am a new driver and trying to buy a mazda 6 here, but at the meanwhile i like the engine sounds of this car(even though i dont know much about car haha) :3
A5's getting so good these days I don't know whether I should even consider getting S5 at all.
best review on yt
This video best quality i ever seen
Audi makes the best quality slick interiors
The S5 sportback is damn tempting.
amazing review!
Best Camera Positioning Ever
Wow....I like how, from 2.500rpm up it sounds like a V6!
v4 turbo its just a light car !
@@veedog5384 It is not a V4.
The sound is so nice
Had mine a week now, love it. Upgraded from the last A5, the extra tech really makes it for me.
Hi dou you have any accelaration lag? Ive bought a A5 2 weeks ago, without test drive, im little nervous
zeroWolf ive got 252, auto and Quattro. I absolutely love it. Initially I didn’t feel it was quick, but you soon learn how to use it. I am probably going to get it remapped, including the gearbox.
There is a little bit, but s-tronic is superb and I have zero regrets.
@@Shyted i mean i watched 100 POV videos and i didnt noticed any turohole, okay maybe a little delay is understandable but i thougt for a 245HP engine no worries, them a came across a vid and the dude coplaned about accelaration delay and i got worried, as long as it is not 2 sec or so is good
Ty for reply
zeroWolf what do you currently drive?
nice ride bro. totally awesome A5
This lighting is really good for these reviews. You should do it during this time of day more. Otherwise love your videos!!
Picking mine up tomorrow!!!!
love this damn channel
first time to my channel and was amazed by the video very good was planning on getting one!!!
I like how you treat streets like race tracks.
German technology is the best!
Good joke
Lmao
@@adamd.9127 Nope
Adam D. It may not be the most reliable or functional, but in terms of pure technology it is.
Mikaclaus stop it kid
Perfect review!!!
I love you videos so much!
Love the reviews 👍👍
Wow the digital dash 🥰🥰🥰
amazing video!
I like how you just rolled past the stop sig without stopping after you came off the highway, but still the Audi a5 seems to be a fantastic car
U mean the red light? That allowed in America,
3:27 Every video I watch where you go around that corner my head goes completely sideways when you're turning haha love the sound of the engine though I keep expecting the DSG farts
You’ve got to get your hands on the RS3. It’s insane
I test drove the A5 and the S5 today, and even though the S5 has the extra 100hp, I liked the A5 more as a daily. Everything said in this video is true.
@thetopher super tight pov video, but next time please show and explain more the options about the car. Like the virtual Cockpit. The different menus and skills about the electronic
Thanks
Omg, he spells Audi right 👍😃 Good Job dude
This convinced me I don't need to dish out extra for an S5
