A genuine question for anyone who has ordered an S3 - why didn't you go for the S4 instead? I can sort of get the S3 SB for those that need 5 doors, but if you really need the extra space and 5 doors then surely the S4 is a readily available solution (?)
I can't believe 1 inch less will completely ruin a car's looks, but there we go
Hi, I just heard that I can order sepang colour on my Saloon but it can be order in March 2014 .. so misano or sepang??
I just don't get why anyone would buy a 4 door saloon when there's a five door hatch available which is more practical and better looking! Four door saloons are very (VERY) dated and I thought the only reason audi even made the new a3 into one was because other markets demanded it. The sales chap I met at Audi last week thinks they'll depreciate very quickly when compared to their equivalent A3 hatch. Good luck...
I think if I had ordered one I'd be saying all that as well Much better looking - specsavers is what comes to mind and well, you have gone for that horrible dark blue as well.... Saloons upmarket? Lost me there. A coupe maybe, Every time I rent a car and want to save money I ask for a four door saloon. Good luck anyway. Just not for me and I'm not alone in that opinion. My local audi dealer is yet to get a single order for the s3 saloon. Nobody is interested, was what the sales guy told me. Not surprised really. An outdated brick on wheels is how the missis described it

I don't think there is any need to be rude about other peoples choices.
The A3 saloon is like a mini A4 and designed I believe for the Chinese/US market but it is a fine car.
I would be dubious about buying one as there are precedents of saloons not holding value as much as hatches. I would cite the VW Golf vs Bora/Jetta debate. Golfs in hatchback form are in greater demand and hold value better.
The latest Jetta isn't a bad looker! BUT that and the Golf Estate have lower residual values than the Golf Hatch. I doubt the A3 will be any different. !
I can equally be rude about your car, perhaps it is better to keep your opinion to yourself....
Absolutely right Joe. Each to there own!! As long as you don't spoil it with a PP I'm sure it will look great!

Who stole your sweets? It's not being rude - it's called having an opinion. My opinion. Just because mine's at odds with someone else's you say I should shut up? I couldn't care less what anyone says about my car, clearly you do. If I had a quid for every time I get the TT hair dresser car jokes... well, I'd have a few quid wouldn't I. I had yellow Cayman S for a little while and got crap over that, did I care? Not one jot. Everybody is entitled to an opinion. I think more than one or two of you lot need to get over yourselves. If someone buys a car I don't like, what do I care? It's their money. As I said, good luck to 'em. Looking forward to the reaction from my S3 SB*in Solar Orange. LOL!
My opinion is that you made unsubstantiated, invalidated claims which you say you are entitled too because that's your opinion. However when I have the opinion that you were being rude about saloons in general you don't like. Can't have it both way m8 and contrary to what you say I would not be rude about your choice because I think the colour is a brave decision, out on a limb but deserves credit for it. I wish it was a standard option...
Forgive my ignorance, a PP?
Please don't get the Pilot started on PP's (Private Plate) he's like a dog with a burst ball with that topic. Ha Ha
Ah I see lol, no not my thing!
Okey. I ordered sepang colour and I got that to misano price. The factory financeguy said that is okey.
True, hatchbacks in this country are more popular, however all the other saloons in the Audi range have good residuals...
Okey. I ordered sepang colour and I got that to misano price. The factory financeguy said that is okey.
From pictures I thought the saloon was the better looking of the new A3/S3 range, then I saw one in the flesh and I now thinks it lags behind the SB, with the 3 door in 3rd place in the looks stake.
IMO.
