Having Tiff and Jason bring a certain credibility that Top Gear can never offer. Clarkson just does a tail slide then says it's amazing! Tiff and Jason actually corner to tell us what a Car is like.
+4dshow the tailslide is just the only WE see, do you think its the only test he does to prove if the car is good or not? Top gear shows you couldn't do yourself, way better than this boring ass shit series, its just a really bad copy of top gear trying to pretend they are not copying anything.
It’s HANDS DOWN one of the sexiest read ends in a vehicle EVER...this is a perfect example, that most “car people” have no clue what they are talking about.
4:22 Same with Japanese kei cars. 660cc is a complete joke. I'd love to see the minimum engine capacity raised to 999cc. Don't even argue to me about "smaller engines are greener" since we already seen what Porsche have done with the 918 Spyder.
as an 14' s5 driver, i LOVE the s7 in white. For some reasons the other colors really lose the lines. And the back is growing on me too. Would love to trade up to an s7 in a couple of years.
As an Audi Owner for 20+ years, A 7 owner for more than 6 years, your limited experience and feedback means a kittens sphincter to me, You just got to get good at driving and then you will understand.
Good boot space? Comfortable seats and driving position? How are the brakes? How was the ride? Residuals and reliability?.... at least we know it does more than 155mph, that's far more relevant for the vast majority of people who buy a 5 door executive type coupe
The rear of this car has guts, it is shocking, only artistic souls can appreciate the Strange and see it as surprising attack on rules of standards. Higher taste.
Thing is all the German manufactures can claim 155 limited but how many with actually be tested to that limit, the ones that would exceed that will usually like to keep their driving feats on the DL.
I think, that the reason why Audi S8 has that much more HP is because of the fact, that Audi don't want to make Audi RS8, therefore, the S version should be the fastest Audi A8.. If you want Audi A7 with this engine and 150 more hp, buy RS7... Simple as that :D
Sounds like the engine is limited to fit right beneath the Audi s8, that probably just means you can get >S8 performance with just some software tuning.
It is artificially limited, but the main difference between the S7 and S8 is the gearbox. The S7 uses Audi's S-Tronic gearbox, which is only rated up to a certain level of torque. The S8 uses a ZF 8-speed gearbox that is rated to handle the torque found in the S8's "upgraded" engine. You could probably tune your S7 and get close to S8 power, but the chances of your gearbox getting destroyed also go up exponentially.
KingPNW True, but still, if you wanted a tune, check out APR or Revo, they'll deliver 560hp with their tunes which takes it up to RS7-Like power. Makes it an absolutely great car with lots of possibilities if you wanted to take the risk. Also i may add, APR said the Gearbox is capable of handling the extra torque. Since there is no long-time evidence i myself can't say anything about that.
I am probably the only person who thinks AUDI's interiors are not all that they are hyped up to be. Just like with the exterior the interior just get dated to quick and its busy-ness is just rediculous. Please try the piano finish and aluminiun trimings on a BMW or any other car with minimalistic interior with piano finish and aluminium trimings.
This car also comes with options for piano or aluminum trim. And tbh, 10 years after its first release, it’s still one of the best looking cars on the road in my opinion
I think I prefer the C-5 cargo airplane(I hope I'm correct) in the background. However, car producers nowadays mention outrageous amounts for all these toys that cannot possibly withstand reasonable pressures.
The front end looks like every other Audi. the back end is the best! Low, wide sleek and aggressive. I recon you could also get a lot more power out of that 4.0T engine with some minor tweaks.
I watch a lot of car vids and reviews, bot not so many 5th gears ones. I´m sorry to say this but I prefer those 4 journalists better each on their own - it just seams so staged without being scripted properly - shortly it simply does not feel genuine; want to have and argument, want to be funny, want to be entertaining, want to be factual but it just ends up with a flimsy experience, like a 20 years old old family movie than does not want to step on anybodies toes but end up doing so all together.
Tiff didn't pop the boot! I love how he usually shows us in the backside. This team test, only rates a 3. Top speed limit, irrelevant to buyers; really...
the statement saying its 100hp less than s8 makes it rubbish is fucking nonsense! People who CAN AFFORD these cars dont give a fuck about that crap. If they wanted they could easilly get a S8 tune for the 100hp and save $10,000
I feel like jhonny doesn't belong here...it's like they took somebody from the street who doesn't know anything about style or cars and threw him in the show
well, in my opinion top gear is more like watching a hollywood movie based on true event/story. In the other side. fifth gear is more like watching a full documentary film. i am sorry for my english, it is very bad very bad. i would like to explain more, but i am affraid i can not do that in a good way.
looks like the most important thing they discovered is that speed is limited to 162 instead of 155.. yay? its eather S7 is dull and boring or the presenters are just lazy
In my opinion the rear is the most beautiful part of the a/s/rs7
My Rs4 is a beast & I love driving it. Volvo xc90 hybrids nice but a bit of a bore to drive. Seriously quite cab, blocks the noise outside very well.
ghostmanromeo uk I
Quad exhausts!!! It’s sexy
Exactly they dont know wtf theyre talking about
I've got an A7, literally because of how the back looks.
In my mind, this is the best Audi made
Spencer Cheng rs7 is better tho
What about the audi r8?
B7 Audi rs4 is the best
The back is the most beautiful part of this car!
I agree!!!
+Māris Samats agree!!!
Māris Samats I agree
The back is the nicest part on the car.. This is why I watch Top Gear..
Jeremy would say its stupid and ugly and for boring businessmen lol
Tristan Rios
Jeremy also said the Lexus LFA was the best car he's ever driven.
Andrei Be Why are you here then idiot
Greg Laurence True but he likes the Merc SLS
Andrei Be I don't like it, tbh! The integration of the taillights looks very cheap! It ruins the whole design of the rear end!
Jason:
Let's build cars that can go 300 miles per hour!
Bugatti & Koenigsegg:
*YOU HEARD THE MAN!! LET'S DO THIS!!*
someone with mutton chops should not talk to the style of something else lol
I was looking for this comment so that I could like ti hahaha, exactly my thought
1:45 Cut to James challenging Jeremy in the E30 325i challenge:
*Jeremy:* "Speed isn't everything."
*James:* "Is it not?"
*Jeremy:* "Kvjkjbsjbsj..."
10 years later and i’ve got one of my own, in the same color and near the same spec as this tester!

@@taraf109 I watched Fifth Gear way before Jason even made his first appearance for the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti review.

The Audi S7 shape reminds me of the Alfa Romeo GTV6, especially the rear end. very cool.
Man, that car’s design has aged really well.
Jason Plato in 2012 - "Lets build cars that can do 300mph". Koenigsegg - Challange accepted.
as an 14' s5 driver, i LOVE the s7 in white. For some reasons the other colors really lose the lines. And the back is growing on me too. Would love to trade up to an s7 in a couple of years.
They r stupid to say the rear part of Audi A7 is ugly. in fact, that is most beautiful part of it and very well shaped 4-door coupe.
i think this car is beautiful.

Car is gorgeous. Audi makes the best looking cars. Love the back end. 2015 is even nicer
Lots of motion blur and deinterlacing in this video
Apologies about that, we'll make sure that doesn't happen again.
Thank you!
Get used to it. Doesn't help to comment on it, I did for a long time. They don't care about the image quality on YT.

Ok hi
The S8 engine is different. Same size but they changed cams and injectors and other stuff as well.

fifth gear is a little bit fucky.... the back end is fucking perfect.
the only two people who say that about this car are in this video
What's that video in the left annotation ? It says it's private, looks like an amg ?
An R231 SL 350.
That video is coming soon :)
Ah thanks you guys ! Looking forward to that review then ^_^
Finally not just me who loves this car
What is the song that is played at the end of the team test when they are giving their scores?!
How do they manage to only get 414hp out of a twin turbo V8? That has to be a typo...
The link in the end to the vid with jason in it (in the merc) doesn't work!
No matter how technologically advanced it is, it's still a VW
No matter how many months has passed, you are still a fucking dumbass.
pause at 2:21
G... G.. G... G UNIT
the back end reminds me of the reventon specially with the matt grey paint
jason's face after conjuring the word obstreperous
This car is beautiful, these people that say otherwise are in the wrong job, end of
For first week after the a7 release I thought it was ugly now I can't think of anything better looking bar the s3 sedan
The fastback is hawt as fuck.
Seems like everyone else likes the back then
I think they have problems with the V.A.G Group....
Top gear for ever!!!!
Good times for sure...
its back is the nicest part... I see it in the traffic and i just follow it to see the back :D (yeah, it is not a filthy thing :D )
groovy piece of car review! :)
THATS MY DREAM CAR YOUR TALKING ABOUT
I think 300 km/h (187.5 MPH) because you are saying 300 MPH you saying (480 km/h) witch means is posible but is outrageous for any road car
They dont like s7 back?? Losers! I love this car for its back! It reminds me classic audi.
+TheDehood ikr hahaha, and anyway that guy with the sideburns can't say anything about style haha.
true my man!
as a kid it seemed pretty odd. the rearlight shape was really droopy. Like it's begging for something
For me this car aged well
That was too funny I love 5th gear!
rear taillights look like the ones on a jag xe so potato is basicly saying the xe is ugly.
Tiff is a legend , Vicky was sh*ting herself 😂
this is obviously staged.
2:30 seconds to 4:30 😁👍
The rear end reminds me of an early Holden Calibra (Australia)
Awesome
The back is pretty good
I like the back aswell, the front just looks like an A4
“The best part about the screen is that is goes away”
The 2 dudes that are in the back of the cat are just talking rubbish
So... when one of the 5th Gear team will get sacked? I mean if you want to copy do it well.
I watch a lot of car vids and reviews, bot not so many 5th gears ones. I´m sorry to say this but I prefer those 4 journalists better each on their own - it just seams so staged without being scripted properly - shortly it simply does not feel genuine; want to have and argument, want to be funny, want to be entertaining, want to be factual but it just ends up with a flimsy experience, like a 20 years old old family movie than does not want to step on anybodies toes but end up doing so all together.
It's obstreperous, Jason. Just sayin.
I am not being funny, but I've had enough!!😃😃😃😃
What's with the quality of this video?
So basically it's a detuned rs7?
I just think the back and bonnet look too low, the rs6 looks better in my opinion.
Nobody drives Audi in Canada. They don't like extreme cold
1:45 So funny. More power not good, 😅?
Tiff didn't pop the boot! I love how he usually shows us in the backside. This team test, only rates a 3. Top speed limit, irrelevant to buyers; really...
"Obstreperous". What a fantastic word.
the statement saying its 100hp less than s8 makes it rubbish is fucking nonsense! People who CAN AFFORD these cars dont give a fuck about that crap. If they wanted they could easilly get a S8 tune for the 100hp and save $10,000
I feel like jhonny doesn't belong here...it's like they took somebody from the street who doesn't know anything about style or cars and threw him in the show
What is that car Jason is driving at the end!!
Mercedes SL 350
Thanks
No problem ;)
It’s not the same engine as the s8 the s8 has the rs7 engine
RS7 For The Win!
It's funny how this audi had a lower rated score than the bmw 3 series diesel lol
3:49 is funny (Runwaay)
😂 love this vid
the back is what makes the only audi i like
Tiff is the man! hahah
Tommy opposite lol.
LoL VBH getting scared in the S7.
Get the Fifth Gear back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed faster is better , and I don't mind the rear il give it an 8
The back is prob the only reason I would buy the car
I prefer this show over Top Gear.
I think your comparisson doesn't fit at all. Like comparing apple with orange.
Apple with Oranges when comparing to Top Gear vs Fifth Gear? Could you please elaborate your statement?
well, in my opinion top gear is more like watching a hollywood movie based on true event/story. In the other side. fifth gear is more like watching a full documentary film. i am sorry for my english, it is very bad very bad. i would like to explain more, but i am affraid i can not do that in a good way.
John Fisher Exactly what the statement "Apple vs Orange" means.
21st century rover sd1
Any man who has a beard like a 19th century opera singer shouldnt have a right to his opinion about cars....
Only because I'm out of Top Gear Videos to watch...
Vbh...I'm not being funny tiff but I've had enough...lol
The rear is fine, i dont get there problem
Plato shat himself. A racing driver frightened of speed.????
looks like the most important thing they discovered is that speed is limited to 162 instead of 155.. yay?
its eather S7 is dull and boring or the presenters are just lazy
Tiff says v4 in the introduction but it's actually v8
Fifth gear never supports safety norms.
nice
the satellite GPS speed taking thing isn't that accurate, i believe they very well maybe travelling at 155 after all
