New Audi RS7 video. Can get up to 192mph with the limiter still on it!

RPiM5 · 09-27-2013, 12:39 PM

I just ran across this video on YouTube. Very peculiar that I just found it now as I just completed a 5,200 mile trek across America myself.

I love the M5 for some of the facts that he stated about the RS7, such as being able to carry 200lbs of camera equipment and yet drive very fast speeds and put the RS7 through very fast corners.

I also felt the frustration of American drivers last week and how he spoke about Germany and German drivers almost makes me want to cry. It's just beautiful the way they think about driving over there.

Anyways, I thought I should share this as the RS7 is a direct competitor to the F10 M5. Some of those lines on the RS7 sure do look stunning though.

My full write up on my 11 day trip coming next month as well.

Great find Dave. Very true. I really, really, enjoyed my time driving in Germany. Total concentration. My favorite line:

"It's the respect of how the system works. And everyone follows it. As a driver, your're not the one, but one of many."

Wait!!!!! What the hell do you think you guys are doing???? How dare you talk about another car other than the M5 on this forum.

There is someone on this forum that will be extremely distraught once he finds out. Repent.

imagine how much faster he could have gone if the driver laid off some soft drinks.

Not really. M6GC is a longer, wider, lower car. It is a different chassis than the M5. RS7 is an RS6 hatchback. They have exactly the same mechanicals, layout, dimensions, floorplan, ride-height, etc.

Also RS7 is closer in price to M5 than M6GC.

In the US there is no such thing as an RS6. So it's RS7 or M5. M6GC tends to compete with Panamera at the $130-150k price range.

fair enough
then i take my words back
but here we have rs6 saloon (at least previous generation, i think latest saloon is not out yet)
maybe the closest competitor for rs7 in here is cls63
and e63/rs6(saloon) for m5

My understanding is with the latest gen in Europe, there will not be an RS6 saloon any where. They are offering RS6 Avant Estate and RS7 hatchback.
