Me three. The audi is boring to look at. Its so boring that it took me a while to realise that the RS3 at goodwood, was in fact an RS3. It just disappeared into the corporate serialisation that was the Audi stand.
For me that is Audi's biggest problem with the RS range, they're unable to successfully differentiate between RS cars, and S-Line cars. It's OK talking about subtly and stealth, but I'd want there to be easily visible clues that my car is an RS3, not a 1.6 with £3K of extras thrown at it. Look at M-Power cars for example - there is no mistaking one, simply because BMW make them very different, and don't allow you to spec their body parts and wheels on lesser cars.
I definitely agree. Two weeks ago I was just cruising to my mates place when an Audi (A with s-line kit or S, I couldn’t tell)3 was getting up my arse. I assumed it was an S as he was trying to hurry me along.
Then we came to some lights and you know what happened…I done him clean
so I guess it was an A3 with the S-line kit.
That’s the main problem…you can hardly tell the difference. And if I was going to spend £40k on a RS3 I would want to standout from an A3 TDI with an S-line kit.
