It's just a bit too clinical for me and the dull looks (mainly caused by the wheels) don't help. I'm sure it's an awesome drive and ruthlessly efficient at everything it does, but not convinced I'd want one.

Tried 3 different sets on my brothers s3 and it still looked boring, i think they are relying that  the quad exhaust makes it look sporty but to me it just looks like any other a3

That's the most unassuming performance car I've seen, even more so than the SEAT Cupra. Good in a way that it doesn't immediately attract thieves and vandals, but at the end of the day it is just a fast Audi S3, nothing really special about it IMO.

It's blander looking than the Golf, don't like the body shape. Seems to have a rounder design than the 8P.

I think the combination of black and those wheels make it look subtle, it does look like a high spec tdi.

The 8V S3 can look aggressive and sporty in my opinion  :love: ...

This new gen of sporty vags are in my option soooooooo dull to look at, I've never thought any s3 has ever looked sporty, I want to love the new cupra and R but meh I just can't warm to them at all tbh. Far to much styling being used from the normal models you can't even tell them apart. Saying that if the r had a meaty front bumper it would change my mine on that one.

Do like the new S3 but in black with those wheels it looks like an A1 Sport.

Audi have done a good job with A3

I have a job to spot the difference when I see the new one compared to the older model.

I think I would have a new A3 over a mk7 Golf if I was looking to buy

Damn boot is smaller than the 8P version that's for sure! Clubs went in fine into Jane's 8P but needed seats folding in my new 8V!   :stupid:

I found that in the 8P3 compared with my MK5 GTI Lee, surely it hasn't got worse...  :sad1:  :fighting:
