New Audi S3

[wigit]

i really hate the current audi styling trend with the swage lines on the rear wings tampering downwards as just makes the side look plain odd

new A3s are quite bland and anonymous, lets be honest best A3 will be a tdi engined one

I'm in love with this thing to be honest.

You guys are dreaming if u think she'll get 400bhp even at stage 2+ 

Really? The EA888 2.0T engines with the trick valves add 96bhp at Stage 1 (209 > 305)

if it makes 400hp that remapped rs3/ttrs power.

It will all be down to the turbo. I think you will most likely see a genuine 380hp at stage 2 plus, if we say the current k04 engines at stage 2 plus are at a genuine 350hp

Saw a new A3 on the road Monday, I had to double take to see what it was - looked really nice on the road, everything looks in moderation if you know what I mean, wheels looked large enough, body styling etc.  DRL's is what I noticed first as I wondered what it was

A little bit blingy but I'd have one TBH. Maybe needs a small tap with the lowering stick or bigger wheels, arches need filling IMHO. Really like the interior as well.

I don't dream anything about S3's 

I never said it would make 400hp either 

The interior is awesome though.  And at least she'll come with the new Sat Nav system that will probably be as good or better than the RNS510, much better than the current rubbish she has.
I thing the indicators in the DLR's will look great, but I noticed she doesn't come with fog lights?

I'd have it, quads or no quads.. Audi S4 and Mercedes C63 now classed as tacky or Ripspeed??

Yeah, it's a fairly plain looking family hatchback with a 4-cylinder engine - with quad exhausts! The C63 is a thunderous V8 super saloon. It looks ridiculous, there's nothing aggressive about the car, then you get round the back and it has four shotguns!

No, an S4 has a 3.0 Supercharged V6 in it! You're comparing chalk and cheese mate.

I'm liking that, hoping the S3 sportback looks good as I don't like the styling on the A3 sportback

And the net has been cast! 

Hook baited but only nibbles from smaller fish up until now.
