In my opinion the rear is the most beautiful part of the a/s/rs7
My Rs4 is a beast & I love driving it. Volvo xc90 hybrids nice but a bit of a bore to drive. Seriously quite cab, blocks the noise outside very well.
ghostmanromeo uk I
Quad exhausts!!! It’s sexy
Exactly they dont know wtf theyre talking about
I've got an A7, literally because of how the back looks.
Jason:
Let's build cars that can go 300 miles per hour!
Bugatti & Koenigsegg:
*YOU HEARD THE MAN!! LET'S DO THIS!!*
In my mind, this is the best Audi made
Spencer Cheng rs7 is better tho
What about the audi r8?
The back is the nicest part on the car.. This is why I watch Top Gear..
Jeremy would say its stupid and ugly and for boring businessmen lol
Tristan Rios
Jeremy also said the Lexus LFA was the best car he's ever driven.
Andrei Be Why are you here then idiot
Greg Laurence True but he likes the Merc SLS
Andrei Be I don't like it, tbh! The integration of the taillights looks very cheap! It ruins the whole design of the rear end!
The back is the most beautiful part of this car!
I agree!!!
+Māris Samats agree!!!
Māris Samats I agree
It’s HANDS DOWN one of the sexiest read ends in a vehicle EVER...this is a perfect example, that most “car people” have no clue what they are talking about.
Having Tiff and Jason bring a certain credibility that Top Gear can never offer.
Clarkson just does a tail slide then says it's amazing! Tiff and Jason actually corner to tell us what a Car is like.
If it wasn't for these two, no one would watch Fifth Gear!
+4dshow the tailslide is just the only WE see, do you think its the only test he does to prove if the car is good or not?
Top gear shows you couldn't do yourself, way better than this boring ass shit series, its just a really bad copy of top gear trying to pretend they are not copying anything.
@@turki_wz I watched Fifth Gear way before Jason even made his first appearance for the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti review.
@@MrEatSomeBrains Oh please, not everyone is a child. We want to see information.
What a pile of bullshit
The Audi S7 shape reminds me of the Alfa Romeo GTV6, especially the rear end. very cool.
someone with mutton chops should not talk to the style of something else lol
I was looking for this comment so that I could like ti hahaha, exactly my thought
10 years later and i’ve got one of my own, in the same color and near the same spec as this tester!
Man, that car’s design has aged really well.
as an 14' s5 driver, i LOVE the s7 in white. For some reasons the other colors really lose the lines. And the back is growing on me too. Would love to trade up to an s7 in a couple of years.
1:45 Cut to James challenging Jeremy in the E30 325i challenge:
*Jeremy:* "Speed isn't everything."
*James:* "Is it not?"
*Jeremy:* "Kvjkjbsjbsj..."
They r stupid to say the rear part of Audi A7 is ugly. in fact, that is most beautiful part of it and very well shaped 4-door coupe.
i think this car is beautiful.
Jason Plato in 2012 - "Lets build cars that can do 300mph". Koenigsegg - Challange accepted.
Car is gorgeous. Audi makes the best looking cars. Love the back end. 2015 is even nicer
the back is amazing
via satelite to the moon lol I love her
groovy piece of car review! :)
fifth gear is a little bit fucky.... the back end is fucking perfect.
the only two people who say that about this car are in this video
The whole car is beautiful.
I think, that the reason why Audi S8 has that much more HP is because of the fact, that Audi don't want to make Audi RS8, therefore, the S version should be the fastest Audi A8.. If you want Audi A7 with this engine and 150 more hp, buy RS7... Simple as that :D
Well said
The rear of this car has guts, it is shocking, only artistic souls can appreciate the Strange and see it as surprising attack on rules of standards. Higher taste.
I think they have problems with the V.A.G Group....
Top gear for ever!!!!
The fastback is hawt as fuck.
I am probably the only person who thinks AUDI's interiors are not all that they are hyped up to be. Just like with the exterior the interior just get dated to quick and its busy-ness is just rediculous. Please try the piano finish and aluminiun trimings on a BMW or any other car with minimalistic interior with piano finish and aluminium trimings.
This car also comes with options for piano or aluminum trim.
And tbh, 10 years after its first release, it’s still one of the best looking cars on the road in my opinion
Seems like everyone else likes the back then
Finally not just me who loves this car
Lots of motion blur and deinterlacing in this video
Apologies about that, we'll make sure that doesn't happen again.
Thank you!
Get used to it. Doesn't help to comment on it, I did for a long time. They don't care about the image quality on YT.

Good boot space? Comfortable seats and driving position? How are the brakes? How was the ride? Residuals and reliability?.... at least we know it does more than 155mph, that's far more relevant for the vast majority of people who buy a 5 door executive type coupe
the back end reminds me of the reventon specially with the matt grey paint
How do they manage to only get 414hp out of a twin turbo V8? That has to be a typo...
The back is pretty good
That was too funny I love 5th gear!
Sounds like the engine is limited to fit right beneath the Audi s8, that probably just means you can get >S8 performance with just some software tuning.
It is artificially limited, but the main difference between the S7 and S8 is the gearbox. The S7 uses Audi's S-Tronic gearbox, which is only rated up to a certain level of torque. The S8 uses a ZF 8-speed gearbox that is rated to handle the torque found in the S8's "upgraded" engine. You could probably tune your S7 and get close to S8 power, but the chances of your gearbox getting destroyed also go up exponentially.
KingPNW True, but still, if you wanted a tune, check out APR or Revo, they'll deliver 560hp with their tunes which takes it up to RS7-Like power. Makes it an absolutely great car with lots of possibilities if you wanted to take the risk.
Also i may add, APR said the Gearbox is capable of handling the extra torque. Since there is no long-time evidence i myself can't say anything about that.
Ok hi
The S8 engine is different. Same size but they changed cams and injectors and other stuff as well.
What is the song that is played at the end of the team test when they are giving their scores?!
Good times for sure...
The link in the end to the vid with jason in it (in the merc) doesn't work!
I think I prefer the C-5 cargo airplane(I hope I'm correct) in the background.
However, car producers nowadays mention outrageous amounts for all these toys that cannot possibly withstand reasonable pressures.
4:22 Same with Japanese kei cars. 660cc is a complete joke. I'd love to see the minimum engine capacity raised to 999cc. Don't even argue to me about "smaller engines are greener" since we already seen what Porsche have done with the 918 Spyder.
Thing is all the German manufactures can claim 155 limited but how many with actually be tested to that limit, the ones that would exceed that will usually like to keep their driving feats on the DL.
The front end looks like every other Audi. the back end is the best! Low, wide sleek and aggressive. I recon you could also get a lot more power out of that 4.0T engine with some minor tweaks.
This car is beautiful, these people that say otherwise are in the wrong job, end of
its back is the nicest part... I see it in the traffic and i just follow it to see the back :D (yeah, it is not a filthy thing :D )
😂 love this vid
THATS MY DREAM CAR YOUR TALKING ABOUT
jason's face after conjuring the word obstreperous
I think 300 km/h (187.5 MPH) because you are saying 300 MPH you saying (480 km/h) witch means is posible but is outrageous for any road car
pause at 2:21
G... G.. G... G UNIT
For first week after the a7 release I thought it was ugly now I can't think of anything better looking bar the s3 sedan
The rear end reminds me of an early Holden Calibra (Australia)
Awesome
I like the back aswell, the front just looks like an A4
What's that video in the left annotation ? It says it's private, looks like an amg ?
An R231 SL 350.
That video is coming soon :)
Ah thanks you guys ! Looking forward to that review then ^_^
As an Audi Owner for 20+ years, A 7 owner for more than 6 years, your limited experience and feedback means a kittens sphincter to me, You just got to get good at driving and then you will understand.
What’s the name of the music 🎶 in the background? Do any of you know?
Tiff is a legend , Vicky was sh*ting herself 😂
this is obviously staged.
Tiff is the man! hahah
It's obstreperous, Jason. Just sayin.
RS7 For The Win!
Agreed faster is better , and I don't mind the rear il give it an 8
“The best part about the screen is that is goes away”
They dont like s7 back?? Losers! I love this car for its back! It reminds me classic audi.
+TheDehood ikr hahaha, and anyway that guy with the sideburns can't say anything about style haha.
true my man!
as a kid it seemed pretty odd. the rearlight shape was really droopy. Like it's begging for something
So basically it's a detuned rs7?
the back is what makes the only audi i like
3:49 is funny (Runwaay)
I am not being funny, but I've had enough!!😃😃😃😃
rear taillights look like the ones on a jag xe so potato is basicly saying the xe is ugly.
The back is prob the only reason I would buy the car
No matter how technologically advanced it is, it's still a VW
No matter how many months has passed, you are still a fucking dumbass.
So... when one of the 5th Gear team will get sacked? I mean if you want to copy do it well.
1:45 So funny. More power not good, 😅?
nice
"Obstreperous". What a fantastic word.
Tiff didn't pop the boot! I love how he usually shows us in the backside. This team test, only rates a 3. Top speed limit, irrelevant to buyers; really...
I just think the back and bonnet look too low, the rs6 looks better in my opinion.
It's funny how this audi had a lower rated score than the bmw 3 series diesel lol
21st century rover sd1
Get the Fifth Gear back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tommy opposite lol.
LoL VBH getting scared in the S7.
What's with the quality of this video?
Test the e-tron
What is that car Jason is driving at the end!!
Mercedes SL 350
Thanks
No problem ;)
2:30 seconds to 4:30 😁👍
The rear is fine, i dont get there problem
For me this car aged well
Don't like the roof slope
Vbh...I'm not being funny tiff but I've had enough...lol
I watch a lot of car vids and reviews, bot not so many 5th gears ones. I´m sorry to say this but I prefer those 4 journalists better each on their own - it just seams so staged without being scripted properly - shortly it simply does not feel genuine; want to have and argument, want to be funny, want to be entertaining, want to be factual but it just ends up with a flimsy experience, like a 20 years old old family movie than does not want to step on anybodies toes but end up doing so all together.
Plato shat himself. A racing driver frightened of speed.????
I prefer this show over Top Gear.
I think your comparisson doesn't fit at all. Like comparing apple with orange.
Apple with Oranges when comparing to Top Gear vs Fifth Gear? Could you please elaborate your statement?
well, in my opinion top gear is more like watching a hollywood movie based on true event/story. In the other side. fifth gear is more like watching a full documentary film. i am sorry for my english, it is very bad very bad. i would like to explain more, but i am affraid i can not do that in a good way.
John Fisher Exactly what the statement "Apple vs Orange" means.
flight perfectly until exposure myth cry humanity rocket.
Only because I'm out of Top Gear Videos to watch...
Nobody drives Audi in Canada. They don't like extreme cold
Fifth gear never supports safety norms.
Tiff says v4 in the introduction but it's actually v8
That is an sedan not coupe lol
kind of looks like a Tesla Model S
the satellite GPS speed taking thing isn't that accurate, i believe they very well maybe travelling at 155 after all
The 2 dudes that are in the back of the cat are just talking rubbish
