No RS3 orders being taken

Can't quite believe today has finally arrived. More to the point, the weather is dry.

Nardo is surprisingly shiny shiny in the flesh. I've always had white and went Nardo for the RS and haven't looked back. It's a cracking colour. The way it changes in the light and reflects other colours is pretty cool.

Was always my first choice mate, as was Cat red and then Sepang. To be fair, each colour has its own merits and the car suits each one in its own way.

Yeah i guess the moments i have seen it in flesh haven't really appreciated the colour. I may have to try and find one and spend a few hours with it to rule it in or out. Lol.

Thanks to all on here for all the info I have gleaned in the last few weeks but decided not to proceed with Audi but shake the piggy bank a bit harder and go for another M3, a comp pack this time.

That's exactly what i am going to do! M4 Competition Pack in White!

Mix of both. Bit of sensible and bit of a blast. The dealer who specialise in RS said that they don't need running in. Only things that do are the brakes. But I'll just keep being sensible with the occasional spurt of fun.
BTW, performance is phenomenal.

Don't go white with the silver comp pack wheels-darker colours suit those wheels.Mineral Grey?

An honest appraisal after an afternoon pottering about and having a bit of a blast. All my reservations about waiting for the FL/ should I get one now etc etc were blown away today. I know I may be repeating other reviews here but I am truly flabbergasted. I have owned STI's, EVO's etc and I have road tested the A45/S3/Type R and I can honestly say that the power delivery/traction/point to point acceleration is mind blowing.

SS seats are excellent and the comfort setting turns it into an everyday A3 feel about the car, but still with a nice rumble. Select dynamic and sport and it truly is a remarkable difference. It is a head turner, in a car enthusiast kinda way as was demonstrated today at the petrol station when a guy in a C63 came across the forecourt when I was filling up and complimented me on the car. All in all, I'm a really happy guy at the moment and although I thought it might have been a gamble in getting it now, well that thought has truly been put to bed. If you get a chance to get one of these, you will not regret it one minute. If you can't get hold of one, get a FL, but either way you will be getting hold of a modern classic in my eyes. I'm chuffed to bits. Now let me get back to reading my manual with a hot chocolate. If anyone wants any more advice, drop me a PM, I'd be more than happy to answer any questions.

Excellent review! Every time I see one (which isn't very often) I say to myself "why do I want to wait for the FL as this car looks awesome" so I totally see where you are coming from.
I bet you had a few people turning heads as it is a weapon you have!

What a feeling waking up today and looking out of the window and thinking I own that car!! You off anywhere good today?

I have to say my car is now sounding better than ever ... amazing actually !!!!

With the weather being better, putting the window down now around town and OMG the sound is terrific.

You don't need to be thrashing it either .. Put it in Dynamic, you get the full Audi accompaniment and the combination of the exhaust, engine & even turbo woosh all combine to create a fantastic sound.

You find yourself driving and saying to yourself ... ****ing hell that sounds amazing !!! Frickin love this car :bluecar::boom::boom::speakerthree::speakerthree::sunglasses:
