The 2023 Audi RS5 Competition finally finds its voice:
Similarly, the chassis also benefits from a personality makeover. A highly tunable coil-over suspension offers a variety of manual adjustments to ride height, compression, and rebound. Hunkered down at its most pavement-hugging setting, the RS5 Competition sits a full 0.8 inch lower than the stock RS5. We applaud this intriguingly mechanical flexibility, even as we question how many drivers will take advantage of its capabilities.
Alas, this bold newfound character comes at an equally assertive cost. The Competition package runs a hefty $16,100, and selecting it also triggers a seemingly unrelated $500 side-assist option. Together they bump the price of the RS5 coupe to $93,595 and the Sportback to $93,895. While that's a significant premium over the quicker and more powerful BMW M3/M4 Competition xDrive, adding carbon-ceramic brakes and carbon bits to the BMW puts the two Germans on relatively equal footing.
