I have the 2023 RS5 Coupe w/Comp Pkg. Ascari Blue w/Black Roof. Absolutely love it! I've added the 034 Motorsports Strut Tower Brace & Eurocode Tuning Frt & Rr Sway Bars w/Endlinks. I'm ready to do HPDEs next spring - will use the stock Pirelli Corsas on the Comp wheels for the track, as I use Vorsteiner Forged Wheels w/Michelin A/S 4s for daily driving. IMO, the Competition Package was a bargain, especially since CCBs were included in '23, and now are not available.
I'm looking at RS5 coupes as a "daily" (I have a 2023 TRX as my, giant, toy lol). I am interested in turning the power up on day one - prob IC, intake, E85, dp's, tune... I know the 2024's dont have tuning yet, but probably will soon right? If not, I'll just look at used ones. Also, I'm just not sure if the competition $$ is worth it for me - I'm going to change the wheels anyways, and I'm probably not going to track the car (not for lack of desire, just time). Also, I'm really not sure if I can trust even an OEM coilover suspension surviving the weather in the midwest... I'm kinda figuring the non-comp RS5 with dynamic package is the right configuration for me, since I'm primarily after a daily that'll comfortably soak up the miles (I do like 18k a year), but still be fast af with power mods and handle pretty well. I'm curious to hear your thoughts since you have the comp package?
I find that the people that dont find the competition package worth it are car collectors and not car people. Car people know that the upgrades are clutch to making a car handle significantly better. The cost savings from getting them from factory is amazing. Great video!
I have the 2021 Ascari Launch Edition ($20K package - yep $98K MSRP). This color is amazing. About the expensive packages, you have to cost out the individual options and see how much that is; usually you will save more money on the package, plus you get the extras not available on non-special editions. In the case of my Ascari LE, the package included every option available plus the exclusive color (then).

Public roads will destroy that tire/wheel combo.

We don’t want to hear your voice, we want to see the car. With all due respect, STHU!
Nothing wrong with his commentary. Mute the video you weirdo.
