Great video Eddie! You mention your preference for the air suspension. I am looking at purchasing the performance version which only comes with the steel springs. Is the ride significantly stiffer when comparing comfort to comfort in both versions?

Watching Eddie’s videos you get a clear sense of how much he genuinely cares about the content and topics he’s talking about. Very useful information, especially when compared to other KZreadrs “what you need to know before....” Almost everyone else seems to be just blathering on about basic and general information that you could find by looking at a spec sheet.

One, if not the, the best and most thorough (without being boring) pre-purchase review videos I've ever watched. Well done! I'm considering buying an RS7 or an E63 wagon in the next year or so and this video informed me of a few small (differences in the C7 and C7.5 models) and big items (no cooled seats with the sport seats... this seems ass backwards to me and is disappointing) that I was unaware of.

As a follow-up, I did end up purchasing a one owner, 2014 RS7 with only 16K miles and in one of the best colors I've ever seen on this car, Emerald Green! I've had it about 8 months now, put 17K miles on it and have thoroughly enjoyed it. It truly is a do it all daily driver.

Can you get a C7 Audi RS7 with Carbon Brakes ?

Good video Eddie, keep it going. Only missed a couple of things; getting a car with sports exhaust is a given. Sports exhaust has black oval tips, standard has silver. The compression ratio was changed on the 7.5 to give better emissions so in countries that have road fund licencing or some sort of tax on emissions, the 7.5 costs less. Here in the UK and C7 is £565 a year whereas C7.5 is £330. Not much in the ownership grand scheme of things but 3 tanks of fuel I'd rather have! If you can find a car with ceramic brakes, BUY IT! They need replacing every 200k miles, not ever 20k miles like steels. There will be a premium for a car with ceramics but not as much as you'd pay for a new set of steel brakes! As for the S7 vs RS7, stronic is better but the interior extra tech, power and handling of the RS are so much better. If you tune your S7/6 you'll need stage 3 to match a stage 1 RS7.

Hi, another RS7 fan from the UK. How would you say yearly maintenance cost is?

Great video, thinking of getting a c7.5 RS6 soon.

Depreciation and Audi's questionable reliability are the only dealbreakers

Dude Nice video!! But here in Sweden it’s more what insurance you are going to get because you will be keeping the car for about a week haha. A buddy of mine bought one and parked it outside his apartment 8h later and it was stolen.. he hade it for about 10h before having to call the insurance up....

I had a '16 RS7 for about two years. It was the 13th Audi Quattro I've owned over the years. I was amazed at how quickly it went through brake rotors - and how much it cost to replace them! Granted I do a lot of mountain driving, but the Panameras I owned before it (4S, GTS sedans) and afterwards (Turbo, Turbo S Sport Turismos) never needed a rotor. With the RS7 I needed front rotors at about 15K miles. Ouch! The car was fun to drive, although when push came to shove (see what I did there?) it understeered noticeably, even with the sport suspension. That was the biggest single difference from the Panameras - they all were more neutral handling.

Rs7s are still holding their values well... Currently looking at buying a cheap s7 and doing a rs7 rebuild...🤔

Great detail. Thanks.

Great info. You helped me on making my decision. Thank you !

Excellent video! Looking at .5 gen RS7. What are your thoughts on same gen S7 prestige? Enough power? Also, who can you get to do independent inspection?

Not to mention the engine is also used in the Lamborghini Urus! RS7s and S7s are amazing.

Thanks for your detailed video ! It’s excellent and you did a superlative job !!! As of 3/19/22 I have finally eyed out, and am negotiating on, a specific ‘14 RS7. It is a baby with only 8,000 miles. All the while having only 1 owner. A sophisticated older successful guy. Also this car has been garage kept for the entirety of its life. The options include the extremely rare and absolutely stunning Daytona grey matte finish paint, innovation package, driver assistance package, sport exhaust package, & the matte aluminum optic package. Sadly, no B&O sound system and no carbon fiber packages. Other than the value I can pull from sites like KBB, and considering today’s post pandemic pre-owned car market, I was very curious and interested to hear what would you cap your purchase offer at if you were in my shoes. Considering the info I just provided. Thank you so much and I can’t wait to hear back what you think !!!! -e

I’ve been trying to decide between the 2019 Panamera GTS, and RS7 lol which one now, would you say? I still love the CLS as well and with BMW, I love the X6M, help me please!

do you have an opinion about the new MMI system in 2021 RS7? is is that much better than the last generation?

How do the the different versions of the 4.0 motor feel in the various host cars, meaning is there roughly the same sense of power in the RS7, S6,7,8, maybe Urus even?

How reliable is the air suspension? And does it have apple CarPlay?

So I bought a used Redeye for a pretty decent price compared to what they are now thanks to this chip shortage. Back then I wanted a retro looking, warrantied fast car. I’m starting to realize I spend more time 0-100 than I do 100+. I daily on drag radials but I want something that can get off the line quick first of all. Seconds I’m not sure if I’m maturing as a 36 year old dad but I feel like an awd missile with 4 doors just seems cool and refined. I just hate the idea of going from a 19’ to a 16’ especially with all these issues you mentioned. I would prob have to do some kind of extended warranty just to ease my mind.

Hey Edie X can you please do more videos for an Audi R8 V10+ ownership 👍🏼🤙🏼🤘🏼shout outs to L.A

Also worth mentioning the engine mounts will have to be replaced around 50k-60k miles. Not a cheap job but common for the 4.0 tt. I bought a C7.5 S7 and threw RS7 turbos in it + DPs & tune to give it around 700 HP and in the end I should've just bought an RS7. The DCT is faster than the Z8 but the clutch is not built for that power. You can upgrade the clutches for $3k + labor but at that point, just buy an RS7.

Eddie, what's your new vehicle?

Would you recommend a s8? And what year and what features in it

I'm torn between an 2016/17 RS 7 C7.5 , & , an S 8. Which do you think would not cost $26 K per year to up keep ? I live in Las Vegas NV.

I would do a s7 and customize it with a body kit and tune.

Might want to add thermostat, waterpump failures to the list of things to keep in mind for these model years. It's a common failure, and not *cheap* to fix.

How come the Audi rings on the front black and the ones on the back are chrome?

Hey Eddie: How do you know if you have the sport exhaust? My crackles and burbles like yours in the video but there was nothing I could find on the window sticker stating it has the sport exhaust.

Safety Recall Code: 21H7

The C7.5, “performance” trim makes 605HP instead of initial 560’that first gen RS7 had. And it’s not just the tune, but the turbos are slightly bigger and cooling system is bit more productive. You get +45HP stock, but also you get way more reliability and potential with the “performance” trim. So if the budget allows, there’s no choice at all. “Performance” trim beats the regular RS7. P.S. the engine build code should be CWUC. Not CWUB or CWUA

lol, "don't get the comfort seats in this, this is a sports car, maybe in the s8 the comfort seats make sense because they look like a sofa", 2 minutes later "get the air suspension because this is a big luxury sedan and not a sports car" 😄. In all seriousness though, I ended up with the rs7 with dynamic package, from a c63s, the rs7 in dynamic mode is softer than the c63s yet handles perfectly, and I kid you not, the rs7 in comfort mode with drc suspension is smoother than my wife's gl550 which has air suspension. Go figure! The change in suspension on this car is one I have never seen before, it is simply day and night when switching modes. When riding in comfort I feel very uncomfortable taking quick turns at even relatively high speed, this changes entirely when in dynamic mode for the suspension, that thing can handle!

The rs7 is without dought a fancy good looking fire breathing that jas a Thorn stuck under its wing nd its called "turbo oil screen"

Question: do RS7s have dynamic blinkers? Or sequence risk blinkers, if you will. If so, for the side view mirror blinkers too? Or is this all aftermarket stuff? Thank you to anyone who knows and responds!!

For 80k + 20k in ownership costs id take a well option m5 competition w carbon ceramics that will take an rs7 any day of the week.
