New 2015 RS3!!!

Guys and girls, I'm close to placing my order for the RS3. Obviously I expect discount to be at a minimum but what, if any, did people get? So far I've been offered £1500 deposit contribution and close to sealing the deal.

Spec as follows:

NARDO, Comfort & Sound Pack, Dynamic Pack, Black High Gloss Styling Pack.

£43,290 OTR
 
As sad as I am, I timed the 0-100 on my ipad. I made it 3.89. Faster than stated. I'm assuming that's the sports exhaust aswell?

Same. But it's the done thing now. They don't want to publish figures that makes it look like it might beat the R8 for example!

That's a seriously quick car. I said I wouldn't order until I've driven one but videos like that make it very tempting. I still want to hear the difference between sports and standard exhaust though.

Oh no... I hope the guy who went ballistic over somebody timing a 0-60 on an APR'd 8V using Sony Vegas doesn't see this post!

There was hell on

I'm ordering tomorrow. Does anyone have any pictures of a Sepang Blue RS with black grill and black mirrors and standard wheels.

Not black mirrors or wheel shot but you can sort of get the picture
 
Thanks for that. Also doe anyone have a Red one with black grill and titanium wheels.

Appreciate the help by the way.
 
Think I'm going Catalunya Red, Black grill, with titanium wheels and black calipers. What do you reckon?
 
Get yourself on the list. First red order here, and it does look sweeeeeeet:

click for huge high res :)

I love the red but I would have to see it in person, red is a funny colour I think.

I love the red/black combo though, I would go for the black wheels, mirror caps and tinted windows personally though. Each to their own though.

I'm going down the glacier white with carbon fibre and black
 
the bright light showroom shots of catalunya do "look" orange, but daylight, especially in those shots, looks fantastic.. and really shows off those front arches.

Red not my colour, but can't blame someone for falling in love with that.
 
I'm not normally a red car guy, but some friends recently took delivery of an A3 Saloon S-Line in red and it looked the nuts! The RS3 also seems to suit the colour. Black/Red is the way to go, not sure how it would look with Alu/chrome trim?

I think I'm sold on red with black grill, black mirrors, tinted windows and sports exhaust. I'll have to leave the callipers black as red and red will not go.

+ titanium wheels. That's the pic I'm after really.

Callipers would look good either I reckon. You'll get the red RS logo regardless so will still tie in with the bodywork
 
As standard they are painted black right? I know normal Audi callipers corrode to hell!

I don't think the red callipers are too much, I quite like them with the red car
 
Yea, the contrast to the black or titanium wheel will make they look good. Glad I spec'd them!

"quite extraordinary performance"... intriguing

I can only judge by my 4pot S3 with similar (if not equal) power, but not the Tq and I imagine it to be well above my expectation.

MTM get a ****** move on :) and completely blow me away :)

It's the same with the Mk1, way quicker than the 4.6 or whatever was stated in the technical spec's! These things are seriously quick :)
 
I'll testify to that.......
Just mental. Way better than a four potter.

lol, I had to look up what a C7 Stingray was... traction control didn't help it but RS3 did very well until nearing vmax
 
I love the red dash inserts, shame we cant spec these. Would have been good to get them as part of the RS Design Pack
 
Me too! Would love these! I can't see why they wouldn't list them as an option?
 
Not all rs engines produce exact same outputs so they have to state the minimum. But also that the press cars are particulary sweet for reviews and some auto compnaies are known to tweak these cars just enough to be better than then the ones they sell to normal punters.
 
Is this Glacier or is it another one of Nardo under studio lighting?

Is Suzuka an option? I had a look in the Audi Exclusive paint when ordering and it wasn't an option
