Nice, but not as nice as white Mine arrives 21 days from today.

 

[Metalex]

I just heard yesterday that mine is arriving a week early!!!! Should have it by next Friday. It will have taken only seven weeks from date of order.

 

[dbndude]

i ordered on the 18th june and i'm still waiting
everytime i look @ the pictures those "EARS" seem to get smaller

 

[TDI-line]

Very nice.

 

[Metalex]

BTW, I wonder if Ken is happy that his number plate has been posted on the web.

Lovely car, I really want to know if the new facelift S3 grille will fit the new facelift S-line.

I know the pre facelift wasn't 100% compatible (it left a 10mm gap at the bottom) - can someone check ETKA and see if the facelift S3 grille has a new part number?

Same here, I look at the "old" S3 and think the ears look small now!

 

[JamS3]

4 DAYS FOR ME NOW!!!!!!

Dont think the black does it justice to be honest.....or it might just be the dull wet weather the photos have been taken in.

Was wondering the same after my recent registration cloning incident!

Tuesday afternoon mate, not counting today and the day I pick it up to make it sound closer. Boat docks tomorrow at North Shields so they have a few days to prep and sort my number plate out.

On the subject of the "new" rear diffuser I know it is different but does not look that different to me on those pics, it does on other pics I have seen though.

Trip the doctor may be in order, don't think you should be growing wheels.

Still don't like them myself, like the front end though and don't mind the mirrors. Won't effect me anyway as I don't think I will be changing at the moment.

The wheels do look far better in the flesh than on pictures mind, just seen them again this morning on the TTS.

looks really nice i see one on the M1 north while i was going south, the funny thing was his one was also solar orange and looked amazing the lights are definetley growing on me.....:thumbsup:

 

[dbndude]

those rims don't look too bad..
i've got a set of 19' BBS CH collecting dust...
just got to wait it out...

 

[PNH80]

Those new wheels are growing on me now. I actually quite like them! I'm guessing that S3 was in phantom black because it looks very dull in that rainy weather.

Yeah was phantom black ... I recon i might powder coat them wheels satin black instead of splashin a few grand on new wheels

It will do, its a different shape at the top, not as rounded as the old one. So new bonnet & bumper would be needed at the very least.

Picking up mine on Saturday........woo hoo:thumbsup:

 

[madalex]

Another lushh facelift at cardiff . Grr i want mine so bad now !

He's had a bump has he?

Sprint blue does look stunning. Just not sure the black optics suit it though.

[I'mRonBurgundy?]

The new rear lights looks stunning with the black.

I wonder...

 

[JamS3]

Totally agree about the black optics pack mate, the chrome just finishes the front off especially around the foglights which the one above does not have.

 

[NHN]

Funny I was also thinking the blue one looked bit pants with the black grill, just doesnt look right at all.

 

[TrickyLad]

why is that A5 in the background covered in a lace curtain

 

[DeckedS3]

Someone must of seen a Meteor grey by now????? Anyone?

 

[redbutcher]

I reckon that is an R8 which would explain the cover mate.

 

[MarcQuinlivan]

Yeah, that's how all the R8s are shipped.

 

[TrickyLad]

i wonder what its made of

i see its a red R8 then, i dont like, give me silver everyday

 

[jamiekip]

Red R8's with the carbon blades look the nuts mate:

 

[Khufu]

looks stunning in red, seen a completely red one in Ayr near where i live
