RS5 uses the ZF8HP, one of the best transmissions in the industry.

I'll also say this. I regret selling it so fast. I did love the car. There wasn't another thing I didn't like about it. It was super comfy, had plenty of power, AWD, digital display was super nice and I loved how you could configure it to be exactly how you like it and also got really good gas mileage if I wasn't driving it like a crazy person lol. Perhaps I should have tried that transmission mount first, I might still be driving it as a daily.

Had to throw in an edit. I think the one thing I can't get over is how everything in the RS6/7 is a touch screen. I get it the way the car world has been going but I just can't with everything being a screen.

Well. It was my car for a day. Popped over to California for a week and took this through the Malibu canyons.
Base Carrera so not particularly fast. Nice car overall though. My biggest complaint is that it sounds like a vacuum cleaner. It’s amazing how this detracts from the enjoyment. 2nd is that the seats give you back ache. Decent steering. Good handling. Cheapish interior. Have to look around the steering wheel to see how much fuel you’ve used The drive was fun. Especially the one way Tuna road. LA traffic there and back was not that bad despite the usual LA nutters. |

I had no intention of ever changing out the 763m wheels on my CS as I think they are the best stock BMW wheel ever, but never say never I guess. Still not sure I like the look of this setup better than the 763m wheels, but will run for a bit to run down the Cup2s then see how I feel for the next round of tires.

At least they kept one knob, the volume control knob. You can skip tracks with it as well lol.
