This is the one I had in Wolfsburg, pretty much fully loaded (dynamic plus package, lots of carbon, bang & olufsen, HUD, front/rear cameras, pan roof etc)

Was staying in the Ritz Carlton onsite at the Autostadt and see they had an RS6 Performance package (room upgraded to a suite and you could have the car daily or for the entire stay but charged daily) on their website, had to upgrade to that then lol only had the car the first day as we had plans the other days we were there, what a machine though. The Mrs doesn't like going fast so after we'd gone out and had the picnic hamper I went out again for a high speed autobahn run, managed close to 170mph
This was the hamper lol
One of them days to truly cherish mate, Jordan offered me a wee shot in a few fast Audi's but.....

Definitely, wasn't cheap but then I'd have regretted not doing it. The room and everything was awesome! If you ever get chance to go out and drive an RS6, bite their hand off!

hey jassy....can't be ***** to go looking for where you posted your detailed review on those two cars lol....so give us the skinny....what did the jasmeister think of these side by side.....in no less than 1000 words.....go!
(particularly interested in handling )

Lol.... In my personal opinion of course
The RS3 was fast mate, great feel of torque as it pulled past 40/50mph....and up to....the speed limit.... Aye right....lol great sound very deep sounding aswell, still had some traits of the S3"s dead steering
The TTRS is instant speed mate, the thing just wants to rock from the word go.......it pulls off the mark faster than the RS3..... Train like.....
Summation.... the RS3 is awesome loved it
The TTRS is down right devastating........ It's a mini R8 and sounds like one, not many cars will beat it off the mark and then some, l drove the roadster which is heavier and it didn't have the sports exhaust but it still popped and banged.... Dread to hear it with it..lol the thing with the ttrs is you don't expect a car like this to be as fast as a R8 V10 plus but it is...where buying a R8 you would, launch control is....well l think you know my next words, also worth a mention on 2 points the TTRS's steering is very very direct point and shoot, suspension very hard

TOP review mate!....best I've read yet....sign this man up for Top EVO Gear Womans Weekly right now!! lol
So I think I already know the answer....you would have the RS3 in a heartbeat, as it does handle better than S3?.....or just the engine/speed won you over?
I think I felt the same when I drove the TTS....drives like its on rails....very responsive...very special...can't imagine how much better the TTRS is but I think you're right....its a supercar widowmaker.
Out of further interest, did both cars you drive have magride?
The TTRS l drove had no magride just standard 19"s as most cars given to the UK did and where low specced ,don't know if magride would make it more daily driver friendly,but with 20's fitted it would definitely need magride
RS3 is all about the engine, exhaust, sound & power .... in a usable practical everyday package.
The TTRS adds sublime light weight handling to the mix. But is much less practical.

Some car that one, a Rolls Royce custom one of build, estimated cost £8,000,000 that's just sick amount of money for a car,it just goes to show ya, ye can have all the money in the world but just no taste lol
Yeah went for the saloon mate, pointless getting 1 sportback after another, tierd of the sportback shape as well, although saying that the sportback and hatchback do suit strong colours better
Ford Orion ghia injection?
My dad had 2 of those a long time ago

Your right about "A change is good", but I also agree with your comment about the bold colours suiting the Sportback.
Either way, you'll not be disappointed.

Yeah but there's a wee twist in the spec as to speak, I've added matrix candles over the original order form..... Can't say more than that... ATM??????

When you get that really nice optioned saloon. I will be interested in your comparison to the overall feel of the saloon to the sportsback with no mag-ride or supersport seats.
Yeah hopefully it'll be a huge driving improvement mate, l know the super sport seats don't offer much more support over the standard seats but l don't like a full black interior so the red stitching everywhere should lift the interior a little....it's the paint colour l am really looking forward to seeing..... Think it will just shout out midlife crisis to everyone lol
To quote myself l had decided to pay for the matrix headlights cash rather than have them added to the monthly cost/payments, keeps the monthly at £400 and also no interest added
Matrix candles, Atari Vanden Plas dash, pano roof open, arm resting on your extended leatherette & Abba playing on your B&O .... you've got the spec licked mate
Wonder if there is anything else we can think to add on ha ha

Think l am done with optional extras mate
Sooner or later l will need to plan out the logistics of picking the car or can they deliver it erm.....
Good point. if you are planning a re-map & RS6 alloys then a performance exhaust would finish it off VERY nicely
If they deliver to you and its on a trailer / transporter then I would be inclined to let them do that.
If they have to drive it then I would possibly go and get it myself.
That said I have heard some comments on excellent delivery drivers.
Some even showing you the DIS economy and average speed so you are assured it hasn't been abused in any way.
