The only thing I can think of similar to this, engine-wise, these days is the IS 500. RC F is too expensive to really replace this, but unfortunately there's no RC 500 - that would be a true competitor... naturally-aspirated, 7300-RPM V8 in a compact premium car. Mmm. I've driven an IS 500 and it's more of a grand-touring car kinda like the S5 as well. Not super sharp, but felt very similar to my IS 350.

Damn that nostalgia. Yea, you gotta call it nostalgia. Without looking it up, this car came out in 2007 I guess. A kid born back then almost finished high school. This car really got me into cars. The boss of my mom got an S5 as like the first Audi S5 in Germany or at least in the region. I will never forget the first time I heard that modern V8. That sound profile. So clean, so modern, yet so powerful. Like a helicopter. Got to drive it later and damn, compared to modern cars this is a dinosaur. Like Max said. A linear performance delivery, more like a (sports-)truck. But such a handsome one! The job they did on this exhaust is marvellous. No stupid PoPZ AnD BAnGz but only clean V8 babbling.

I think this video sums up an era gone. Sound is so important to the driving experience, that’s why we spend much $$$ trying to modify our exhaust, speed is second but how often are you driving on the limit? In my opinion, most ppl should not have anything over 300hp.

I have the same s5 and for me it’s quick, but yep on a channel that shows insane speeds it’s a dinosaur but bang and sound for the buck 👍

I've got the RS4 B8 and it's an absolute joy. The V8 sound is unbeatable - shame the engines are gradually getting smaller now.

@@t8506 I drive the V6 version, to be honest, it rocks! The V6 engine has a better power to weight ratio, I think. The supercharger is also amazing, and allows for incredible chip tuning potential, or even pulleys, if you want to. The only downside is that it doesn't sound like the V8...

Which is more reliable 3.0 or 4.2? I heard the 4.2 V8 needs the whole engine out to do the tensioners.. not sure how true that is tho

Luckily I have a slow A5 lol, I’d get so many speeding tickets for the sound alone

Crazzyy🔥

These cars are actually faster than they are given credit for, (although I know they are still not that fast)..a family member of mine has owned a 4.2 6 speed auto S5 since new in 2010, and has covered about 125,000 miles. It started idling very poorly when cold around 80k miles and I begged and pleaded him for years to have the carbon cleaning done. Finally, he gave in about a month ago and did it. The difference in performance is shocking. It’s also part of the reason for the lame upshifting and downshifting…after the cleaning, the car is WAY faster than it was, shifts a lot faster and smoother, and just runs like a completely different car. To prove my point I ran 100-200km/h and dragy verified ran 17.5s before and 13.7s after! It’s like a different car now and back to how I remember it when he bought it new.

This particular S5 is seriously down on power. I’d put money on it being the notorious carbon build up

5.8sec 0-100 with 220k km? I won't see the mileage as an excuse because my A6 with the 3.2 V6 does about 6-6.4 seconds with 320k km although it would probably benefit from brake boosting and FSI cleaning. I thought the 100 extra hp and torque would help it out a bit more than what I see here... So basically I got almost the same performance with less fuel consumtion while cruising... apparently

Outrageous exhaust! It's amazing how different the S5 and RS5 are. RS5s scream and need to be revved to get to the power, the S5 is so much more relaxed and easy going. The zf 6hp get jerky and laggy with age and a rebuild should help with how lazy it is. These FSI engines suffer from carbon build up which can sap power but the elephant in the room is the dreaded timing chains. Otherwise visually, I personally feel they have aged very well.
