    As a 2013 S4 owner, I like the 2016 RS7 better. I improved my S4's steering feel a lot with coilovers, a strut tower brace and subframe brace. Also did a rear sway bar, all the 034 inserts, 034 upper control arms, stage 1 ECU & TCU tune, silicone intake, 6 piston calipers up front, air filter, blah blah. It's superb.

    I haven't driven anywhere near as many cars as these reviews have driven, but after watching video after video after video, I was blown away by how well my steering in my 2016 S7 feels! It's the lightest steering I've ever had, BUT I feel so much through it! My SRT8, Viper, RS5, BMW 7, various Caddilacs, Infinitis, and other random GM's and Dodges, nothing has come close to my level of enjoyment this S7 gives me! So the take away is: Looks AND performance are relative - 12:05 "The looks are ... established" fits very well with all points of this car! Nothing beats: If you want to form an opinion for yourself, get out there and give something a test drive! ON THE OTHER HAND...... I was so pleasantly surprised and impressed with the driving feel of the S7! So.. yeah. These guys made me buy my RS5 from their RS5 video, and now I've got my S7 thanks to this video, dammit guys :D
    ** OH and BTW, I bought my S7 from Toronto Auto Brokers (where this video's RS7 was borrowed from) BEFORE I watched this video! The coincidences are incredible :D

    I had a 2014 and most were able to get 3.2 and 3.1 sec 0-60 regularly. It was brutally fast for a 4000lb car. I loved it. Audi tamed it a bit with the years. I traded it for a new 2018 Porsche Panamera Turbo which with steering was better but the fun factor was lost. I still miss that RS7. If you can get one, any year, get it. You will love that car. I guarantee. Comfort on the RS7 is way better than the Porsche too.

I do want to do the APR Stage 2 on it, but I also have the Audi extended warranty which I don't want to loose. So I am being a wimp and remaining stock for the moment. But that will change some day, hopefully soon....
