All,

I need your views..

I really like the AUDI RS7.. always have and think they are looking really affordable (purchase cost) not running...

However also thinking that the above may be near impossible to sale on... whereas something a bit newer could be a bit easier to step out of.. but equally as fun..

Whats your thoughts?

Fast exec saloons - M5 is the default choice and always has been. I think you'd always be wondering what if if you went for the Audi. Get one of those when you need to put the dog in the back with the default fast estate.
Yes I know the M5 is going to top the list but must just be my odd penchant for the RS car.. Both seem to be shedding value like there is no tomorrow, I think the RS&7 is priced nearer where it should be.. the m5 i think will still fall...

I just cant commit to one or tother..

I love the Avant.. but theyre holding a lot more value / higher miles.. and I dont really need the boot... although still spectacular things..

The M5 is the correct answer - it's unquestionably the better car, which is probably why I'd lean towards the RS7. A bit rarer, a lot better value for money, and to my eyes better looking.
I think im with you bro!

I was in the same position in 2022. I bought the M5, it's mega.

Quicker than the RS', handles better, option to fiddle with the 4WD system (RWD mode too!), lower running costs, better tech...

No brainer for me at the time.
Ah this is interesting.. I feel the BMW doesn't have the presence .. stance .. but of course absolutely has all the performance. Running costs are a big part here, I haven't delved too much into the M5.. I can see rhe Rs is absolutely mind boggling ...

I think I'd take out an extended warranty on either...
