Ive just received these photos from the guys at Kings Lynn Audi, of our Ara Blue S3 saloon thats due to land next month, cant wait to see the car in the flash and so pleased i changed from Vegas to Ara.

Cant thank Kings Lynn Audi enough for another unbeatable deal, along with their great service.

Love it - looks uber fresh with the V spokes - if anything may look good with the chrome mirror caps.

Looking forward to more pics !!!

What is the bit made out of where the rear plate goes?

I want to stick mine on but it looks a bit like foam? Wondering how well it will stick to that.

Oh and the car looks awesome by the way!

Think it's there for anti rattle should you screw the plates on or use a number plate surround which is legislation in some markets I believe. Shouldn't be an issue removing it to tape your plate on but look closely and you'll see plastic nutserts (dimples) that the screws self tap into you'll have to remove these too and just apply tape to seal the holes up.

That looks a beast - interesting colour!

Can see why you're excited to be back in an S3 though :friends:

Looks incredible! Extremely similar spec to what I have ordered, I haven't gone for BE though. Very nice indeed congratulations!
 
Car is looking spot on. Loving the black edition combo with ara. Ara looks a lot better then I imagined. Definitely a fan of it now.
 
For those that are undecided on BE or standard finish on Ara Blue. All up to your liking, but I prefer the choice I made and It was hard to make with not even seeing decent pics or in the flesh, just computer generated pics for both colour and finish

Looks awesome … love the BE with the black mirrors, cracking wheels too.
Enjoy when it arrives.
 
I absolutely love the colour...looks in between the Sprint and Sepang in the pictures.

From the brochure and configurator pics I'd seen it looked a lot lighter but boy that's incredible

Looks good.

Its obviously a similar colour (Looks in in photo's) to Sepang Blue. If I'd been asked to name the colour, I'd have said Sepang.

Must be a very subtle difference

Jassy is correct, prior to pick up of my car, it sat beside a TTS in Sepang and the Ara is a lighter shade and changes hue dramatically in different lighting.

I had seen a better picture of an ara r8 and sepang rs6 which showed the difference better but this is all I could find
