Imagine walking into a dealership and you see these three parked right beside each other, what’s the first question that comes up in your mind?

Did you record this with a phone from 2011? That video quality makes it hard to actually make out any differences. Anyways, I was wondering if the RS5 is actually any wider or is it just cosmetic differences? I see fake vents near the headlights/tail lights on the RS5.
Here's what happened and please learn from my mistake. I bought a stupid new model DJI phone gimbal and it was terrible, when I got home I realized the video was shaky, too late to go back. I sent the DJi back and got a gimbal for my new camera.
@@SamCarLegion DJI makes the best gimbal tho. Yours was probably defective
NeutralGenericUser Yes the RS5 is actually wider than the A5 and S5. It is wider both in front and back. You can slightly tell but the RS5 has 2 body lines on the rear quarter panels where as the A5-S5 has only one body line. Besides that though RS5 has different suspension and different brakes. Drives completely different than S5.
Ya, I see those body lines you're talking about now. Thank you :)
@Ronald Zain Definitely, have been using Instaflixxer for years myself :D
these new facelifts look amazing in person. I literally can not stop staring when one drives by. They’re too stunning.
The S5 Sportback is my absolute dream car and I would actually pick it over any other car on the market. The design of Audi's 5 series is breathtaking on the inside and the outside and combined with the practicality it offers it's just the perfect car. I really hope that I can call one of those my own in the future 😍
You'll get one one of these days. If I can do it, anybody can. Trust me on this.
Just got one last week in white 2018. Such a beautiful car!! I just want to drive it around everywhere lol
You can one day. I just got my S5 Coupe 2018 in red 3 weeks ago and I am just a normal guy with a normal job. You have to wait for the right offer.
Same here except i prefer the coupe. Lets hope i come back to this comment section in 5 years time and celebrate our s5 together.
@@ZekeNova may i ask whats your annual salary and how much did the s5 cost you?
This was just a short comparison between the three. Let me know if you have any questions.
Sam CarLegion just want to confirm, you said the suspension on the S5 is slightly stiffer than the RS5?
Hi Sam, have you done a comparison between the A5, A5 s line and the S5?
Had my 3 year old S5 coupe just about a month now and I'm still amazed at the beautiful lines, the quality interior and the incredible drive. Paid half the new price too for a spotless example.
Congrats
Any update? Has it given you any issues in terms of reliability?
Thats so nice now we need
2019 A7
2019 S7
2020 RS7
with me like 👍🏻
Will make it happen!
"Which one I can afford and of course confirm with my wife"
This guy knows what he's talking about. I'm exactly in the same boat
Me too!
I got same situation lol. My wife wanted an Audi A5 but I wanted an Audi RS5, so, now we have S5
S5 Sportback is my first Audi and I totally LOVE it!! The exterior looks sporty while interior has that aesthetic vibe that is lacking in BMW. The only thing that i wish could be better is the "steering" in dynamic mode, which is not as tactile as BMW.
It's an awesome car
Exceptional video sir. Thank you. In the market for this exact model and reason to decide. Awesome thank you.
How are you generating your percentages?
I've had an s5 sportback for the last 2 years and I love it =).
Great vid mate! Keep it up👊
Nice and to the point! Great video.
Got a 2011 S5 for that 4.2 V8 alone. 4 months in and really happy with my choice!
Great video! Loved the quick and to the point nature and I agree totally the difference in s to rs just doesnt justify it for me. Look forward to more!
Welcome!
Always love your videos. Could you compare the two convertibles… the Mercedes E450 and the Audi S5…
Really nice comparison between this 3 cars and I agree with your decision. Finally own a 2017 S5 Sportback in daytona gray and it´s just amazing. Had a 2010 3.0 A5 Coupe TDI before which was also a good daily driver. But the S5 is just sporty and a bit luxury :-)
Great review video. Thank u!
This is exactly the video i need. struggling between an A5 and an S5.
Ruozhuo Li s5 and call it a day
Ruozhuo Li if you can’t decide between those two go for the A5, if you are thinking of the s5 go with the RS5
I drive an RS5 and it is nasty! I get goosebumps every time I look at it, start it up, and drive it. There is a white S5 in my area and he gave me the thumbs up when he pulled up beside me. If you have the money, get the RS5 and all of its options.
Just purchased a used 2018 audi s5 with only 25k miles. Loving it so far!
What trim, and how much were u able to get it for?
great review!
How’s the steering compared from an A5 to the S5? I know the S5 because I owned one. But how’s the A5? I don’t care about power. Just care about the steering wheel if it’s the same.
The quality, the audio of the music spazzing out and jumping from left to right in my headset is practically forcing you to get motion sickness.
I drove both a 2018 A5 sportback and a 2018 S5 coupe and I had to go with purchasing an S5. The A5 looks nice but didn't have the oomph of power that you want from an Audi. The RS5's power and aggressive styling is great but you pay much more for the privilege.
great video
I drove the RS5 and S5, very slight difference. I would buy the S5 to actually modify it.
JohnnyBeGood rs5 has twinturbo. With chip tun it will have 500+ hp- big difference
@@sergtv9638 and the s5 can also be tuned to 500+
Irshaad Shaikh only with turbo swap
SergTV Куз rs5 is heavier and not a coupe
J C A we have rs5 coupe
No specs at all? What engines did they have?
They should have given you the A5 s-line with the sport suspension and virtual cockpit to compare to the s5. Makes a big difference compared to the base model
I agree. That's the one I have.
@@insonphillips3696 How’s the Performance mate?
45 TFSI??
I am driving the s-line A5 as a loaner while my s5 is getting a replacement tire. It's a great vehicle, very smooth and comfortable cruising, but from a performance standpoint, there is no comparison. It's a totally different experience jumping up to S5
S5 might be the best all around car out there right now, especially for the money. RS5 great but not worth the extra money.
I’m a sucker for the 2 massive exhaust pipes though
I just picked up a 2022 S5 Sportback. Best car under 80K in my opinion. Anything faster than that is honestly meant for roads like the autobahn lol. Unreal car.
You really spice up things.
That was a great video. I just got the S5 and you are correct, it's not justified to get Rs5 really ... thank you
Buy the S line and call it a day. Save money for some parts and make it as fast as the RS5.
But the a5 is only a 4 cylinder. Get a slightly used s5 for the v6
Mr. Porkchop He literally said to buy the S5. Bruh 🤦🏼♂️
@@exoticwhipsbroadspipesandbags bruh he said s Line
Mr. Porkchop He never said to get the A5. Smh
Are you talking about the video or the comment? Coz im talking about the comment
Good comparison. Despite the intro, straight to the point.
Current owner of A6 and came to same conclusion as you on the S5.
Doc Holliday what year A6?
I actually traded my 2010 A6 for a 2019 RS 5 Sportback last summer. Best decision ever!
How do you guys like the downsizing in terms of space from A6 to the S5? Coming from a Mid-Sized sedan (2012 Acura TL), considering the S5
mtfour I’m considering the exact move. Can’t decide between rs5 and s5
Was A5 a 40 TFSI or a 45 TFSI?
I Like the S5, but the interior color option seats of the S5 are black, a lighter black, a gray black, and red.
I just traded in my dodge Hellcat and got a 2020 S5 prestige coupe. Couldn’t be happier!!
Why?
Wan Bee .... I really got bored with it. Don’t get me wrong, the engine is amazing, but that’s all it is ...an engine. The car wasn’t engaging to drive. If money was no object then I would have kept it for the odd times I felt like letting loose. For everyday driving, the Audi is a much better car
@@RomanEmpireRSVR Same boat(no pun intended LOL) as you were, selling my 5.0 for something more practical. Looking at the 18-19 A5 and S5 for my next purchase
@@TheseRightHereBitch I’ve never driven the A5 but I had a 2028 S5 sportback and loved it. This 2020 S5 coupe though...❤️❤️❤️
Awesome video👍 I have driven all three. I owned an A5 B9 and now S5 B9. A5 with 4 cylinder has almost nothing in common with an S5 beside the awesome look. S5 and RS5 in other hand are comparable, sound, acceleration the sporty feeling and so on, and RS5 is ofcourse the best and fastest 😎
You guys are so lucky you've got the s5 with petrol engine, here in Europe it's a tdi :(
First question is, where are the coupes?
Blame COVID 19- that was my next video
I also willing to own Audi but can’t decide between s5 or a7!
depends what you need and prefer. those are also my 2 current choices, but i am going with S5 for now because it will be quicker, i prefer the more sporty look and suspension/options. but the a7 will be better if you want a more comfortable car, less sporty but more luxury options, will be better if you have a family and for carrying passengers more comfortably.
When is Audi going to update that dashboard?!
2020 new models will be different
I just hope they won’t go all touch screens everywhere like in the A6/7 . Hate that all screen design
@@georgfranko I agree...they need to find a better ergonomic balance that's also aesthetically pleasing. Especially considering the premium they demand
@@SamCarLegion thank goodness!
Probably 2022, then it is time to lease the 2021 with good discounts
Would suck when u a slow Honda pulls on u tho! that s5 looks good
Described each car as best as possible
Those roads look rougher than the sahara
Good suspension test road
Insurance tho man jeez I’m 20 years old I had A4 for my first car and then I just recently got my 2018 a5 oh boy oh boy for a 20 year old kid it sure is expensive i can’t afford my a5 to be a daily driver I have to drive my subie to work
What engine did the A5 have?
Philip 2.0 4 banger
@@arjnarersn01 what Version though? 252ps?
wow really difference between a5 and s5 no shit i think u should do reviews on hondas and kias
I just used the Audi Canada configurator, and got maxed out prices at 63K, 73K and 105K for the A5, S5, and RS5 respectively. Very nice, but very pricey! I think I'd just take a Stinger GT and pocket the rest.
The S5 is a rocket compared to the Stinger that being said, it will cost you a bit more.
@@SamCarLegion Stinger has more power, though it is also bigger. And 23k is more than just a bit!
A bit more, I mean standard package, premium will cost more than a bit. If you drive them back to back, I think you might have a different prospective
@@SamCarLegion Yes, perhaps. Thanks for your good work Sam!
John Holst the stinger doesn’t even compare to the S5 when it comes to driving dynamics.
Good
Man I’m so glad he made sure I understood that these cars all had ‘similar cabin space’ and technology. I was convinced each would be completely different because they definitely aren’t all the same car just engineered differently for performance 🙄
Tech wise they aren't different, mostly performance. Now the RS5 has some interior differences, other than that not far off.
I owned an S5 Sportback and now I own an RS5 Sportback (Check my channel). While I agree that on comfort mode, difference isn't that noticeable, it is a complete different story on dynamic. Ok, my S5 didn't have the DRC suspensions, rear differential and dynamic steering wheel that I have on the RS5...
I dont know where u live, but in Canada the S5 gets a lot of that extra options. DRC suspension system etc.
Sam CarLegion In Switzerland, they’re optional, even in the RS5. All that comes with the optional RS dynamic package
Correct! Cheers from Canada
obvious choice will be the 2018 A5, as it can be 'optioned' with manual
I thought you were gonna drag race the three.....
I am only one guy, couldn't find people.
Sam CarLegion it’s all good man. You did a good job 👍
I will bring another comparison soon: A7, S7, RS7
It's cool to know that this is in GTA!
Mercedes CLA 250 vs C300 ..Please😌
This video would have gotten a lot more views if it were a drag race 😏
I couldn't find the people or a place to drag race 3 cars.
Music used?!
It's through epidemic music site
I’ve got the 2013 a4. I’m thinking about a 2019 or 2020 s5 or a7.
S5
@Enesbih I can’t afford an s8 😂 I’d need to save another year unless I get an older model. I could get the 2018 S8 but then I’m spending 55k for the old body.
I've got a friend who has an S5 and he constantly complains about the stiffer suspension even in the normal mode. Its a great car for the power and value but Im looking for a daily so the suspension is a dealbreaker for me. I'd rather have the A5 with sline package. S5 is only if you want the extra power
A7 is a nice car but I wouldnt recommend. Too much in terms of pricing and you get most if not all of the tech in the A5. If you want a 7 series, you might as well save up all the way and get an rs7 instead
@@XDKX101 yeah I don’t even need all that power or I would go ahead and buy a hellcat the s5 is just nicer and is the same price. I think I’m gonna go with that. But the 2019 A7 should be worth about 48k when I get ready to buy it. I’ve had my 2013 for three years now and know that they’re expensive to maintain so I might just pick up the s5 and save 10k for future repairs.
I see one car and only one:RS5.
Q1: which one is the fastest.
A1: get that one.
Not that easy
The S5 is the Best Bang For Your Buck.
If you keep it long enough for the Warranty expire, or don't care about voiding the Warranty, you can tune the 3.0T V6 to 400 hp easily
does s5 and rs5 sound the same ??
Similar
@@SamCarLegion to what extent sir
@@FQ1998 lower rpm - they sounded the same. It’s hard to explain with words
@@SamCarLegion and at high rpm?
@@FQ1998 What a stupid question to ask
Rs5 dream car
WOw these cars look mousey... like Hyundais..or Civics.... WHAT HAPPENED?
2015 RS5 is what I'm looking at.
Am i the only one that thinks that the s5 looks like a tesla model s?😂😂
Never heard that before, but yes the lines are similar
With a simple tune on the s5 and you'll smoke the rs5, and if you do full bolt ons it wouldn't even be close
No you won't. Stock S5 has 354HP/369 Trq. ABT software upgrade increases to 420HP/405 Trq. Stock RS5 has 445 HP/443 Trq. So there is no smoking the RS5 with a tune. However, it would be a much better value to go this route. Also tuned RS5 with MTM is 525/516.
What modifications can you do and not invalidate your warranty?
The RS5 isn’t just a faster S5, there a lot more to it than just more power.
@@Jabber-ig3iw Exactly.
I have a JB4 piggy back on my S5 Sportback and it's around 430hp / 450tq. It's easily on par with the RS5. Honestly,.I think the RS5 front is better but the S5 rear is better with the quad exhaust. The RS5 oval exhaust looks stupid.
I wanted to watch this video as I've just purchased a 2018 S5 but I couldn't handle the stupid music.
I can't stand car review videos with background music on and can't hear the engine! Not only that it wasn't even pleasant to listen to.
Despite what he says RS is always the way to go for me when it comes Audis
They still have the old style Audi dashboards. I would wait for the update (next gen).
2:11 my guy actually said “slow Honda” 😂😂😂.
What about a slow Nissan,....or a slow Toyota or slow Ford. Lol.
What a joke!
Get a S5 and buy a Hybrid Turbo
"S5 to be slightly faster"
So 333 HP vs 220 HP is a "slight difference". An increase of 50% or 113 HP is "slight".
You do you, boo.
I have driven both these cars. I own an A5, looking to buy an S5 soon. From my side, having driven both, the S5 is in another class entirely. It rocks your socks off.
You really need a better script!!
The first thing you said about similarity is that they are from the same brand? 😑
You definitely don't have a sense of humor.
@@SamCarLegion sure!!! Blame the other coz you are not creative enough!!
Actually that's not the case in here. First, if I had a done a terrible job, then people would have disliked this more. Second, you are the only one that commented for that specific reason, third, this video wouldn't be as near to what it is at the moment, fourth most people have thanked me, fifth this is probably the only comparison of these three on youtube, which makes me creative. Good day :)
@@SamCarLegion clearly you don't watch other videos on UA-cam 🤣
And just coz people have bad taste, doesn't mean you have a good creativity.
You have a good day tio
video quality is from someone with iphone 4
It was lol - didn’t have much money back then
If you were bored, driving an Audi like a grandma, it's probably because you are a grandpa 🤔
It’s a shame that when these vehicles break, which they will, that it’s too expensive to buy the parts for your broken German tin can.
If you get them brand new, warranty will take care.
Obnoxious intro song
I
Ridiculous comparison someone looking at an a5 is not looking at an rs5 at the same time dude you can other afford a a5 or you can’t afford an rs5.its like looking at a Ferrari but then going buying a ford
