Never had an audi. But I do know the RS7. I asked a colleague at one of
my

customers, he is from germany, about BMW and VW and his reply was

"overpriced crap".
 

It seems as if the quality has been going down the past decade according
to him. I currently do not own a BMW, so I do not know from personal
experiece.

 Back when I was in high school, my friend drove up to me, while I was
getting into my 65 Chevy Nova junker, all excited. He had just gotten a
used BMW 1600 and wanted to take me for a ride. I said "okay." I was
just a dumb kid that didn't care about cars and didn't see why he was so
excited. He took me for a nice ride on the twisty road in the area.
Beats the heck out of me where a high school kid learned to drive like
that. That guy was always smarter than the rest of us kids. I think he
was abused by his father. Perhaps that's the key.
 My granddaughter's baby daddy was going to get a BMW from his uncle.
That never happened. It's just as well. There's not much point in giving
a kid like that a car like that. These days, he drives a new GTI. That's
just as well, it's much more practical, right?

 Sometimes I wish that I was passionate enough about cars to actually get a really nice one. Sadly I am not, so mostly the focus is to get me from point A to point B.
 But who knows... once I find my perfect plot for my fortress of solitude, I will have to drive more often than now, since I'm currently a city dweller (except for my fishing expeditions of course), and when I need to drive more, I imagine that it could be smart to plonk down a couple of 10:s of thousands extra to get something nice, and something that can actually drive on bad forest roads in winter with about 0.5 meters of snow on them.

I know, Russian...but still cool.

Quite a Brontosaurus right there! But I do have my doubts about the quality. =/ I do not think they are built like old school kalaschnikovs for some reason.
