@@alexeymakarov6705 I bought one 428 2015 had it for 1 year so far never had to do anything to the car got one oil change and always fill up with 94 instead of the 91 smooth and fast
definitely Audi A5. Series made 2014-2016 the best shape of A5's ever made. I just bought 2016 A5 coupe after making up my mind between BMW M3 E92, Nissan 370Z and BMW 5 series. loving it and specially how it looks. Heard the lot of issues about the engine and electrical but hey life is too short too ignore a fine body
Great review guys. You could go a little deeper IMO, but still a great review. My only "complaint" is that you should have taken the bmw with xdrive to be a perfect comparison. But still, great choice of cars to compare and great review. Bravo
I've got an 09 A5 and I love the car for sure but I can't wait to see what the next generation model looks like. The interior is still nice and was by far the best when it first came out but will need an upgrade if they want to stay ahead of BMW and Mercedes in the next generation
Nice vid as a look back... I bought the BMW 328i in 2014... Compared it with the Audi 4... BIG difference for me was the TRANSMISSION Software Mapping... Both have essentially the same ZF 8-Speed unit, (so a ZF tech in SoFlo tells me) but IMO, BMW did a much better job in operation, smooth, shift matching with drive mode, etc. ... So, makes the driving experience more enjoyable, intuitive, comfortable, etc... THX!
When you switch the 428 to sport plus it be comes a completely different machine steering tighter more responsive , faster shifting , more turbo , suspension damping … they Didn’t even mention this
Test drove both. Although less powerful, The Audi wins hands down. Why? it felt more adaptive as a daily driver. But this is from a former Porsche owner so my opinion matters not. .Anyone else tired of the dated and ancient BMW front fascia?
Honestly you can’t go wrong with either car. Both are beautiful vehicles. I test drove both brands, and it is BMW for me. However, Audis are also amazing cars. It’s a close call.
A few Goodmen I don't know if you ever decided, but I have an a5 and absolutely love it to death. I have a 2009 and it's just a stunner. It's better made and it will last longer (I'd stay away from the turbo engines in the 2009-2013 era because of issues with oil consumption). I have the 3.2l and it's been great.
Yeah because Audi pretty much said "fuck it" and their new cars look exactly the same. So you can keep your a5 and still look like you have a modern Audi 20 years from now.
Totally right. that front grill is still very up to date. the change of the face of cars are a marketing trick, seeing everyone is pulled into buying the "latest model"......years ago that wasn't the case. the product doesn't change (function/tech) as much as the look does. love your point. looking at an A5 now, hope it all works out🙏
I like how one guy chose the Audi and the other guy chose the BMW. Just goes to show you that both cars are nice. And anyone who owns either of these is a lucky person. I would pick the Audi just because of personal preference.
Great review, I think its going to really come down to a prior pref for either Audi or Bmw. For me, def the Audi even if the interior is a bit dated, that can be upgraded with after market gear. Funny ending :D
I had the Same Question last year the Audi A5 2.0tfsi or Bmw 428 i choose the Audi because of the interior Design and Quality and beacause its an Facelift but nonetheless the 4 Coupé is sexiness pure 😍
Despite disagreeing with each other they still managed to make it known without offending or putting down the other throughout the entire video. I like that. i didn't even consider the Mercedes-Benz for this body style, so I have to say my choice has to be the BMW. The A5 is still a great contender.
Hats off the the A5 for looking fantastic, but I've got the Gran Coupe version of the 428 and I gotta say, I'm in love with it! the four door version looks way better than the 2 door 428 for sure :)
Brady Garber the 4 series gran coupe is a sedan that still has that aggressive sporty coupe look unlike the 3 series witch still looks amazing but is not as sporty looking.
jorge macias bro I own both they’re totally different in person the 3 series is tiny the 4 series is LOWER it’s also WIDER the headlights the bumper the grille and it’s also taller. U can only see it in person and be like oooh I get it .
I like the Audi A5 ( I own one) for the styling . I feel the BMW styling is boring, but I think the BMW maybe a slightly better car. What about the problems that both cars may have???
I haven’t seen anyone talk about how you can turn traction control and DSC completely off , the steering is way heavier and the suspension get stiff … then you can have real fun(:
I own a Audi A5 2.0T and the last 3 years I believe it is the best looking production car under 90k, but the BMW is brand new, so I would give it to them, I cant wait to see what Audi can do for the Audi A5 B9 it should be a better match for the BMW. The interior is looking outdated now since they have had the same structure for last 5 years.
true...they need to compareted the age of audi and bmw because is basicly different........bmw is 2014 and the audi looks is from 2009..so with the new RS5 bmw is fuc***
My 2015 428l is leaking oil at 29k miles. Lover pan gasket is leaking oil and oil filter housing gasket is leaking oil too. My warranty expired a month ago, and I got bill at BMW's dealership $2200 This is common issue with 328 and 428 oil gaskets failing after some time. Buy extended warranty or stay away from this car.
i did get the 428i xdrive but im not crazy about it. The rear vision because of the high head rests is dangerous. Not enough storage space inside and the trunk as well. Looking to do a swap a lease and get out of this lease.
Fearzzy A5 looks way better when it’s a nicer colour like white, black or silver and when you swap the grill with an rs5 grill it makes a huge difference to the appearance. Audi a5 has more potential.
Mark Tonna I was thinking the same until I’ve seen the 4 series in m performance kit. Seen both real life. The bmw looks 10x better.especially in blue or white.
Reviewers should really stop complaining about headroom in a Coupe... its so wierd to complain about since most owners of these cars drive with 2 people...
The reviewers should leave there ego and pride for there pick alone. If you guys can't help being this way might as well let one person review. Ex. Everybody knows that BMW steering is the best in the industry in terms of road feel and handling. Nit picking and that stuff is just plain wrong. I really like the cars you pick for review. Its what the viewers want. Please train these reviewers to be fair. Thanks
You can see that the guy who picked the Audi had already picked it since the start. I mean let's face it the A5 needs to get replaced and he was trying his best to find it better to the more moder n and better riding bmw.
We have 3 BMWs in our household and the statement about the steering not being consistent from vehicle to vehicle couldn't be more true. The 2005 X5: takes more force to turn, but very touchy when moving. 2001 325ci convertible: phenomenal handling and feels perfect. 2009 328i convertible: not as responsive as the E46, but definitely responsive and comfortable.
It's the BMW for me, even if Audi aged well, it's known that it's an old car, the BMW exterior and interior wins it for me, I still look back after 2 years of owning it.
The A5 is from 07/08 and it shows Audi were the leader in pushing the BMW to find an answer to the coupe segment as yet another niche. The styling on the car that is over half a decade old has proven to stand the test of time, while not taking away from the fresh look of the 4 Series which is fine as well. Its a shame other than the A5, R8, Audis seems to have a copy and paste look across the range. BMW also has some questionable styling cues - 1 Series bulge eye and X-boxes I would love to see what the 2016 A5 brings as BMW leads with the power/efficiency side of things.
+Cjkologe yes it is. in a few years bmw will look outdated and audi will still look good. just like how audi has been doing to bmw previous models lol.
Audi is more bang for your buck. BMW's are too overpriced. Audi gives exactly what you paid for and the look of the car is just way more beautiful. Let alone those LED lights 😎
So many comments on here by ignorant people. Some just don't get it. The Audi A5 here is older but it's an original timeless classic. BMW played catchup with this one in particular. The Audi is still the better looking car with the better interior. quattro will leave that BMW behind on a normal road. The Audi 2.0TFSI has always had superior power to the BMW -20i engines. It started from 180 up to 230ps which became -28i territory but from a 4 cyl. The 428i here has 245ps, which is more than this Audi. The latest 2.TFSI now going into the new A4 has 252ps .. More than the 428i. Catchup BMW Audi have you beat.
A measure of a car is its quality. audi has lots of it and looks great. The A5 is an outgoing design, it's been around 8 years yet hasn't aged. It still looks fresh and still as good as the new BMW. That speaks volumes as to how good this car is. Audis aren't dull to drive. quattro is very good, it gives great traction, and let's you have fun when the BMW can't go anywhere.
+Sandouras I never tried to pass of looks to justify one over the other. My point is the Audi is an older design but is still just as good . The A5 has aged gracefully and the 4 series is a reaction to its success.( 3 series coupe) BMW make a great quality performance car that is track driver focused and is untouchable given perfect conditions as it slides across the track. The Audi is also a great quality performance car but rather than sliding like a BMW it provides better traction which arguably gives it an edge over BMW in less than perfect conditions as it has a differing philosophy. Both cars are built to a high standard. Objectively, which is a better road car and which is a better track car? I don't need to tell you which one is which as its a unanimous vote all over the net. It depends what a driver wants from the car. If we all liked the same car the world would be a boring place.
bmw all the way, the audi is basically an expensive passat. the bmw and its rear wheel drive 50:50weight balanced chassis was engineered for this platform.
How is the longitudinal engined Audi Quattro A5 platform the same as a transverse engined front wheel VW Passat? Still ignorant as ever I see. This same architectural platform as found in this A5 is used by Porsche in the Macan but not by any VW model....
audi is the better car. it has and will age better than the bmw. its also awd, good in ANY conditions. come'on, luxury coupes is not for a family. doesnt matter the bmw has a litle bit more room. audi is just better
Why don't they put the new version of the Audi A5 against the bmw4 you always see bmw Benz new but the Audi will always be last years model . People who buy bmw can't afford Audi so they go with the 3 option
As a 430i owner I would say no matter which of the 3 German options you choose, you'll be blessed regardless. I had a chance to test drive all 3 extensively and this is what I determined. BMW 4-Series = Performance Mercedes C-Class = Luxury Audi 5-Series = Middle Ground They'll all be great cars, but this is how I would describe their production value to anyone.
BMW has been has a history of make ultimate driving machine since E30 M3 to F32 M4, Audi's are just trying to keep up to BMW's class. All Audi history is just rally quattro crap.
+TheRealBajan so you won lemans. Whoop Dee fucking doo. Enjoy your FWD coupe that drives like a boat. Even Mercedes are sportier in the way they look and drive.
wow lmao. the past doesnt matter anymore. audi kicks bmws ass right now. what exwctly does the bmw has over the audi? rear leg and head room? thats it? in a few years the bmw will look outdated. ill admit bmw has a better handeling car(only the Ms) but handling alone doesnt make a car the best.
For the final verdict, objective measurable primary key performance indicators should be things like: - quality of steering - and the quality of the suspension - overall long range ride (comfort) - and (tight corner) handling Doesn't mean these are the only indicators offcourse, but they should dominate the final verdict for these kind of cars. Didn't happen though, bit disappointment right there. They did well avoiding the subject of looks throughout the video as it isn't an objective indicator. But in the end they couldn't resist. I think the 'tie' was forced. I have the impression they both agree that this BMW drives better in every way, has less shift lag, has more space, is more luxurious and is more fuel efficient. They disagree on the steering though.
That A5 is still beautiful today. That thing has timeless styling.
Aged like a fine wine
I chose the 4 series, and now I have one, I don't regret it for a second.
Me too !
I bought the audi and love it . Very fast car stage 1 tune I got recently the car scary fast
💙💙💙
thinking of a 428i, has it been reliable for you man?
@@alexeymakarov6705 I bought one 428 2015 had it for 1 year so far never had to do anything to the car got one oil change and always fill up with 94 instead of the 91 smooth and fast
"What I really like about this Audi engine is the way it sounds" - (zero engine note, only the sound of the tires on the road) Lol.
camera shitty quality mic
For old people, yes. LOL
Both are 2 L Turbos
Lmao that 2.0tfsi sounds like diesel
Wouldn't it make more sense to compare the a5 2.0 quattro against the 420i x-drive?
depends on if you are an audi fan or not
definitely Audi A5. Series made 2014-2016 the best shape of A5's ever made.

This A5 is already 2 years old. Can't really compare the lacking.
Both are still great cars. A5 is definitely a head turner though.
A5 is actually in its 6th year of this generational production cycle
One thing I can’t get over the BMW is their outdated dash boards with old school fonts/dials
Great review guys. You could go a little deeper IMO, but still a great review.
My only "complaint" is that you should have taken the bmw with xdrive to be a perfect comparison.

The BMW turbo 6 wasn't replaced by the turbo 4. It's an option.
Is there an Australian motor industry???
Mine doesn't bleep on downshifts
The 4 cylinder did not replace the 6 cylinder in the BMW. The 435i / 440i still exists...

75 or 80,000 ? Where are you getting your numbers from, Fully loaded the bmw is around 60 or high 50's
Australian car prices are extremely different from american car prices due to luxury car taxes.
That just completely contradicted your first comment.
Different locations around the world. Import tax and such kills it. A loaded 335 costs over 100k in some places.

The Audi A4/A5 needs just 10-15 more hp and an updated center console and it'd be perfect.

Audi any time all the time!

New Audi A5 😉

Audi A5 bellissima....
Audi A5 FWD, same chassi as a Passat CC, same engine as a Passat CC or a Skoda.
How can they even compare that shit to a BMW?
Proud BMW 428i owner.
How is the Audi A5 shit? you can't talk shit if you drive a 428. maybe if you had a 435 it would be different.
Bro anyone would pick the BMW over the Audi looks alone.

The 3 series is more comparable then the 4 series
Having driven both (on test drives, so you can't exactly go mental) I went for the 428i. There's just something incredibly dull about the A5.
n0deification can you elaborate on that
The A5 is from 07/08 and it shows Audi were the leader in pushing the BMW to find an answer to the coupe segment as yet another niche.

B M W 1 0 0 %
The problem is that the compared a 7 year old car to a brand new one...
BMW 😍😍
To be honest the Audi looks a bit better than the BMW. The BMW looks a bit too aggressive
yes the bmw is like a subaru with a huge wing while the audi is like porsche.
seriously you two need to go back on your meds
flash the ecu of that audi and its game over
+Tom Su More so with the BMW actually, power up 34% with an ECU Flash - will destroy the Quattro
Tallandcharming Um try over 80% increase on the A5
428i > A5
435I > S5
M4 > RS5
lets see the year... 4series is brand new and a5 is not. so yea i think they must compare the similar year models.. :)
ppl keep using that excuse. no,its just audi never refreshed shit for like 5+ yrs lol. bmw constantly takes changes with new design aesthetic
kuruptzZz great use of the"Greater Than" symbol
Dont forget 420i is paired with the lesser powered A5's you need to be more precise!
You are idiot

Imho Audi has the ugliest interior style in this class... The new cars (Q7, TT, R8) look awesome tho
You've got to be kidding me.. Audi has the worst interiors.. Unless it's the new 2015 design
Both cars are sexy, but my choice is the bmw. I drove the 435 and liked it. I wouldn't choice either over my RC FSPORT though.
I'm in between getting an A5 or 428. Seeing the 2 side by side the BMW looks better. It has more of a sporty/aggressive look.
Do you like the rc f sport? Some reviews say it's too heavy and slow.
I love it!
very good effort from the colonies. is cute when they try, best to stick to reviewing Holden ;-)
+lerudeboy - LOL. We try to do our best with European cars - when we aren't riding kangaroos and punching sharks.

They do make 'em tough down unda
:-)
CoupÉ . OMG Annoyed the crap out of me
+Timothy Sutton That's the correct way to say it, hence the way it is spelled; Americans do not pronounce the word correctly - it's of Latin origins.
the BMW ist optical the much nicer car
Why don't they put the new version of the Audi A5 against the bmw4 you always see bmw Benz new but the Audi will always be last years model . People who buy bmw can't afford Audi so they go with the 3 option
The 2016/17 Audi A5 has only just been launched internationally. When it makes its way to Australia in early 2017, we'll take another look.
bmw all the way.
As a 430i owner I would say no matter which of the 3 German options you choose, you'll be blessed regardless. I had a chance to test drive all 3 extensively and this is what I determined.
BMW 4-Series = Performance
Mercedes C-Class = Luxury
Audi 5-Series = Middle Ground
They'll all be great cars, but this is how I would describe their production value to anyone.
BMW has been has a history of make ultimate driving machine since E30 M3 to F32 M4, Audi's are just trying to keep up to BMW's class. All Audi history is just rally quattro crap.
chuja wiesz
And multiple le mans 24 hours wins , idoit. Bmw is just a poser brand, they don't win shit now and the majority of their cars are ugly.
TheRealBajan Lol a poser brand. And looks all depend on the person.
+TheRealBajan so you won lemans. Whoop Dee fucking doo. Enjoy your FWD coupe that drives like a boat. Even Mercedes are sportier in the way they look and drive.
wow lmao. the past doesnt matter anymore. audi kicks bmws ass right now. what exwctly does the bmw has over the audi? rear leg and head room? thats it? in a few years the bmw will look outdated. ill admit bmw has a better handeling car(only the Ms) but handling alone doesnt make a car the best.
bmw 428i mapped is 310bhp
audi a5 2.0t mapped is 420bhp...
Patrick Crawford hahahahahahahahaha thank for making me laugh😂
Selaudin Agolli thats a stage 3 tune not a stage 1
For the final verdict, objective measurable primary key performance indicators should be things like:
- quality of steering
- and the quality of the suspension
- overall long range ride (comfort)
- and (tight corner) handling
Doesn't mean these are the only indicators offcourse, but they should dominate the final verdict for these kind of cars.
Didn't happen though, bit disappointment right there. They did well avoiding the subject of looks throughout the video as it isn't an objective indicator. But in the end they couldn't resist. I think the 'tie' was forced. I have the impression they both agree that this BMW drives better in every way, has less shift lag, has more space, is more luxurious and is more fuel efficient. They disagree on the steering though.
