I find that depreciation really varies based on the market. The demand for performance cars can keep RS7 values higher than expected!
Insurance for the RS7 tends to be higher due to the performance specs. It’s also worth noting that some performance parts can be costly if you need replacements down the line.
Exactly! You’ll want to factor in those costs. Plus, ask if your area has specific insurance options that could be cheaper for the S7.
Don’t forget to consider fuel efficiency! The S7 being more economical can really add up over time compared to the RS7, especially if you commute a lot.
Absolutely! If you’re not driving on the track every weekend, the S7 feels like a more sensible choice.
Has anyone managed to get quotes for both models? It could be helpful to see real numbers for maintenance and insurance specific to your location.
Great point! I think many forget to factor in local conditions which can greatly influence costs.
In terms of overall value, if comfort and advanced features are a priority, the S7 might be the way to go. But the engine in the RS7 is hard to pass up!

And don’t underestimate the RS7’s interior. It’s a luxury beast, even if it costs a bit more!
While the S7 sounds appealing, the RS7 is like having a supermodel in your garage! Sometimes, you’ve just got to go for the flashy option, right?
That’s a fun perspective! But remember, sometimes the classier pick wins over flashy in the long-term happiness department.
Ultimately, it boils down to personal preferences. Test drive both to see which one really speaks to you!
I’ve been looking closely at the S7 and RS7, especially when it comes to tech features. The RS7 has a more advanced infotainment system with dual touchscreens, but the S7 is no slouch either. Both have solid safety features, but the RS7 includes some extra driver-assistance tech.

That’s a solid point! However, I find the S7’s interior to be a bit more comfortable and less sport-focused, which could be a strong factor for daily driving.
When comparing comfort, I noticed the RS7 seats offer great support but can feel quite firm for longer trips. The S7 feels a bit cozier for everyday use, which is crucial to consider if you plan to drive it regularly.
I’m curious, does the GT or sound system differ? Audi’s virtual cockpit looks great in both models, but I’ve read mixed reviews about the RS7’s sound compared to the S7’s.
The sound systems are similar in specs, but the RS7 does have a bit more bass, which some might prefer. However, it does come down to personal taste!
I think both models have top-notch safety features, but the RS7 has a few more advanced options like night vision and more adaptive cruise control settings. Definitely worth it if you’re a tech enthusiast.
While tech is important, I also value comfort for long drives. The full leather trim available in the S7 is a nice touch, and I appreciate that it feels less aggressive than the RS.

Exactly! Also, the ambient lighting and general aesthetic in the S7 create a more relaxed environment compared to the flashy RS7.
