Just picked up my s3 saloon today. Pics to follow when I get round to it.
I was rather lucky to find one that wasn't yet allocated to the dealer network. So, from deciding to order one to picking up today took 2 weeks all in. Obviously I had to take what was there, but it's not a bad spec:
Panther black
Supersports seats
Park plus
Comfort pack
B&O
19" wing alloys
Reversing cam
SD card satnav
Privacy glass
Exteneded mono.pur interior finish
Folding heated door mirrors
Coming out of a Nissan GTR so not expecting to get too excited about the perfomance but so far so good - it's a nice thing to be in, somewhat more refined and more practical with an 8 month old son to accommodate.
Lucky you.
Beats my 9 month wait from order to delivery (ordered end November 2013; due early September 2014)!

That's an insane waiting time!! Definitely should try a different dealer! Can't imagine waiting 10 months for a car. I'd rather drive 100 miles to one that can get it to me in 6.
Nice spec...
Yeah ! Just a long wait for now ...
My Golf R 2011 with 380 pk and 500nm was stolen a few weeks ago ....
Driving currently an audi A3 105 pk 1.6 diesel until the s3 has arrived.
Damm i am the new captain slow for now !
Great car. Clearly the standard S3 isn't fast enough for you!
Where do you live to get that lovely Sepang Blue? There are NO blues at all available for S3 saloons on the UK market.
Can't begin to imagine the way Audi UK think (or don't think as the case may be..)
Obviously somewhere with no speed limits!
Horsepower is like money: it doesn't matter how much you have it's never quite enough...!
Only it's torque to me that make all the difference, horsepower only relates to top speed...
Nice car I heard the new one was sold out in 30 seconds in Europe with 9300 applying...
I love them.. Mine's not actually a Mustang though! It's a 1965 car with a Mustang V8..

My S3 has the same torque as the VW Golf GTD, but I know which one is quicker....

Wiating for those pics.
Did you have to pay for the Tyre Pressure Monitor Fred007?
When I ordered mine I chose the TPM option, but took it up with them as I understood all news cars post October 2013 had to have them by law. Their response was that strictly speaking the A3/S3 saloon wasn't a new car as it was a development of the A3 (despite the fact that all panels are different..) so they didn't have to comply.
Yet as from April/May this year the TPM is now fitted as standard, so I wonder if someone took them to task for it and they've had to back down and fit it as standard?
I am now a proud S3 saloon owner. Car looks ridiculously good. Can't take my eyes off it. Very pleased with the color choice. Everyone who sees the car, says its absolutely fabulous color. Today, spend most of the time driving it, Hope to get pictures soon.
Here couple teasers, just for now...
