From all the disastrously designed new or refreshed models of cars this year, the Audi RS5 is the best looking gotta say.
That RS5 looks insane. Perfect proportions.
Audi just for the looks alone
M3 touring is one of the best car ever produced, even more when you think this was released recently
The Audi is much more beautiful and harmonious! Bravo!
m3 all day long in racing green with brown leather interior
I'm 38 and finally retired, making $28k every two weeks. But truly, having a supportive Audi car through it all is the real blessing. Thanks for the extra motivation today!
I would prefer the Audi if it did not have the Hybrid system. I love the way it looks
Definitely keep the split tailgate on the touring - something you never need until you’ve had one 👌
BMW is a driver's car always, but the Audi has the aesthetics .... depends on what is more important, performance or the looks?
As gorgeous as that Audi is from the outside, that interior is shockingly bad.
M3. Not even close.
Are you taking the RS5, the M3, or waiting on a proper engine for the C63 AMG?
I had an RS4 (2019) which I loved. I think it weighed about 1700kg. I then got an RS6, awesome, well yes but, too big and too heavy. I grew to regret the ‘upgrade’. A 700 kg upgrade for a change of name, Audi have lost the plot. Buy a second RS4 and be very happy!
I’d rather an old v8 rs4 or 1 of those e46 m3 estate conversions lol
The side profile of the RS5 is incredible
Man, that RS5 is so menacing... To me, the best looking sportwagon !
After the m3 touring ( modified ofc ) clinching a top 5 finish at the 24h Nurburgring in the SP-X category , the car just feels legendary at this point
Man I like the M3 touring, even tho Im an Audi guy, but Audi killed it with this new RS5, interior could use more design and less screens tho
Has to be said this fella should be on top gear on tv bring it back
