From what I see there are a lots of guys that jumped from RS7 to M5

New specs for 2020 RS7 are: 591 HP 590TQ
0-60 should be very low 3 sec.

Enjoy reading

I think the previous model is a better looking car. Should've had 625hp instead 591hp. We'll see how it performs.

I dont know too many that have jumped from the last gen to the F90 because the last gen is rather old (debuted in 2014). But I really enjoyed both of my RS7's, especially my 2017. I think they missed the HP target cause my Performance version in 2017 had more than the upcoming gen. Either way the F90 schools the RS7 stock vs stock. Now once mods come in there are some ripping RS7's as the mod gains are large.

This new model is nice looking to me. I suspect they'll be a Performance variant where the numbers will climb. Definitely on my list.

My 2017 enclosed.

That is a nice looking car Vic!

The RS7 was too long for my garage lol - I am guessing the newest version isn't any shorter?

I believe the F90 is about 195 inches and the RS7 is 197. I have to park right to the rear wall to fit with the M5.

I really hope the F90 LCI will look a little bit more aggressive. The M5 has the best performance against the competitors, but it‘s design looks too outdated compared to RS6/RS7 and even E63s AMG.
I‘m really looking forward to the F90 LCI.

So big front grilles which will subsequently require changing to a different front bumper? Anything else? Can't tell if the rear tail lights are different in that white pic.

Well now that I have seen it live on video it looks better than the press pics. Further- it has RWS which will be cool to test out.

It still has that terrible engine placement though. RS6 is still the better looker as Matt stated.

Based on all the numbers I've seen, the base M5 will take it 0-60. I think it looks great, I have a soft spot for the RS7.

I love the look of this new RS7 but the M5 is still the king as far as performances goes.

Here is a new video for you guys to watch

Its growing on me---alot. And I love the interior look although never touched the car in real life. Id be willing to give a up a few ticks here and there if the driving dynamics are strong. The exhaust out of the box sounds great but this car in the vid appears to have carbon ceramics and will be a north of 140k car IMHO.
