2017 Audi S7 4.0T Quattro - Redline: Review

  • Despite being one of the older cars in the lineup, the latest 2017 Audi S7 still offers a near perfect blend of luxury, class, speed, and prestige. With 450 stampeding horses and Quattro AWD grip, you better make sure your passengers are hanging out when they take a ride. Just be sure to tick the optional sport package if you actually plan to attack twisty back roads more often.

    I really love the fact that every review starts with a history lesson. I really like that I'm also knowing a lot more than just the car. Definitely my favorite car-channel on the CZcams.

    What's nice is that Audi has improved their reliability greatly over these past few years so this thing should be pretty solid too. It won't be a Lexus, but it won't break down every week like many BMWs.

    People don't seem to understand how CZcams scales uploads of higher quality, so initial views may only see the lower 144p quality, while I watch this it seems that 360p has uploaded, and I'm sure if I come back later, the HD's will be posted.

    • @TassieLorenzo
      @TassieLorenzo Před 6 lety

      Indeed. It takes longer to process the higher quality versions into CZcams's preferred codec (I think). You can skip that if you upload your video directly in CZcams's preferred format.

    As always, great review, Sofyan! You did a great job displaying the features of this 2017 S7. Your driving impressions left me believing that this vehicle is one true beast!!!
    I have always been a fan of the A7's design. Since, it always had that remarkably sleek rear profile.
    Overall, this vehicle is definitely showing its age in some aspects. So, I cannot wait to see what Audi chooses to do with this vehicle.
    From one car reviewer to another, keep it up, Sofyan! 👍🏽

    I have the S7 with the sport package... definitely worth it. The exhaust has pops and crackles and honestly the engine is what sold it for me. My wife got a Mustang GT and so I got this, because I had to be faster :)

  • @brianbfree2328
    @brianbfree2328 Před 7 lety +8

    I'd take the 17 for a discount but I rather have the 18'. It's even better looking to me. That engine sounds good just like it is. I'm a stealthy brother, so I don't want people to hear me coming as much as I want them to see me leaving. No sport exhaust for me. I am disappointed at how they couldn't incorporate the cooling/massage function into the red leather seats. My Optima has cooled seats😂

    • @7477238
      @7477238 Před 7 lety +1
