Facelift Rs3 pricing

The S3 Saloon I ordered fully specked up came to £46k.

I do want an RS3... Problem is my S3 is on the way to the UK!... maybe I can do an exchange in 6 months...
 
I've been quoted week 33 build slot for saloon, but delivery not until oct/nov!!
Does that sound right?

Maybe a touch pessimistic. You'd expect 6-8 weeks after production, tops. But this is Audi. I'm adamant that cars will arrive this year, however.
 
Unless I am mistaken, the option for wider front wheels is missing - along with the option for the Saloon's Blade wheels (which are available on the French system)
 
My dealer just rang. Says saloon is £45,250.

Order now and cars start delivery September, so if I want one? Going to email me details. But from reading above, people are saying ordering SS seats? Surely they would be standard kit?
 
Supersports seats are not standard. But a worthwhile option. They're not too expensive, look great and will aid resale.

Cool. Thanks! Useful for all models too!

I think it's worth giving it 6 months to see if discounts are added. As if would cost just under £59k to spec how I'd want which is a good £13k more than my S3. But add in some discounts and maybe...

Just specced up using your link. £51,775 without Mag ride, or £52,750 with mag ride.

TBH, basic price is cheaper than I thought it would be, but I can't believe Super Sport seats aren't standard?

Main dilemma's would be Aura Blue or Daytona Grey? Mag ride or no mag ride?

£52k is a lot of money for an A3. Need to think hard about this one. My current S3 Saloon is probably worth £25k Trade. So I'm going to have to pay for another second hand S3 Saloon, just to get the new RS3 Saloon. Is it worth it? Hmmm

Is the mag ride worth the money? What is the standard suspension setup??
I think the s3 is comfortable enough without it especially in comfort.
 
Same thing I'm wondering. I'm perfectly happy with my S3 suspension without Mag Ride, wonder how the RS3 is.
 
I personally can hardly tell any difference with mag ride in comfort. But others swear by it. If I was to get a FL then I'd rather spend the money on a pano roof to hear the noise the engine makes!
 
Why not add it? The cars are expensive enough that a few extra options make a very little difference.

Another £1000 difference. That's a lot for something which may not make any real difference.

It is gonna do something ofc, it gives you a choice between softer and and harder suspension. And in the grand scheme does another 1k extra matter that much when we are talking about a car costing close to 50k?

I checked what my spec would be in the UK, £54.5k. Not too much more over here tbh, dunno what kind of discounts you can get but I should be able to get close to 10%.

I doubt we'll get anywhere near 10% discount in the UK! More like 1%.
 
This family friend said he was told from the powers that be within that garage, that there would be no discounts on the RS3. Understand why. Residuals are superb!
 
Hi,
I've spec'ed the matt titanium wheels in saloon (£695), but on the configurator link posted by Shmelll there looks to be not much different between the matt titanium, gloss black or even the standard wheel at no extra cost. Does anybody know the differences ?
 
This is my spec with matt titanium wheels

Discounts will be hard to find straight off, but in a few months who knows.

With the bare minimum options, I can get it to £47,295 OTR for RS3 Saloon. If the GFV is £25k after 4 years, what do you guys think it'll be for 30 months or 3 years?
 
Found difference between wheels. £695 seems pricey for just a spray jobs on the internal parts. Think the matt will look better than the gloss black on the saloon wheels with Nardo Grey

Im not talking about a promotion or something like that, but in the highly competitive segment the dealers will discount from their margin to sell another car. They make it up in winter tyre storage, service and other things. It is all a negotiation basically.

I got a quote on a pre reg TTRS when they first came out...GFV was something crazy like £22k after 4 years!!! If it's £25k on the RS3 then you'll be doing well.
 
I just checked on a pcp calc using some approximations and it works out ok for 4 years. I'm a bit hesistant to do 4 years though, I know I'll change my car before then. Longest I've had a car is 3 years.
 
according to Kings Lynn Audi, they've placed orders this week (including mine) and they're all showing as BW42..

Exciting!! Too early for me, S3 will only be a year old come October.

I wanted to go Racing Blue but Audi want a 20% deposit and I just can't fund that and wouldn't want to, I'd only put £4000 down maximum.

No standard colours I want really, Nardo is nice but I prefer the aluminium pack and it doesn't work with Nardo. Plus I don't think Nardo is a good long term owner colour! :/ Ara is too light having seen one on a regular basis.
 
I hope we get more pictures of the RS3 saloon. I'm thinking of Daytona Grey with Black Pack but want to see how it looks standard. Also wondering how floret silver looks like.

Anyone know what the comfort pack consists of only when using configurator link I posted if you select it the option of advanced key blanks out.

Would find it odd if it included auto lights and cruise as this is now standard on FL A3?
 
Just found out using configurator...

And I agree they look great and they really do stand out, considering mine is grey and always slips under the radar. My mates Ara blue S3 gets a whole new kind of attention compared to mine.

But I've never been a person big on the Black Edition, I've always liked the aluminium trim on all cars. My plan is to buy this car outright long term, I'm not sure if I would get fed up of it :( Been a while since I've seen a Nardo car.

Damn it, keyless :'(

But I'd love the camera, must have hill hold and B&O! At least the comfort pack will save me a little money, as I was speccing all of those individually as well as the comfort pack.
 
I've gone for Nardo over Daytona.. solely because I have a Daytona A4 avant, looks great but a common colour… I can count on one hand how many Nardo greys I've seen on the road, spec'ed black pack and matt wheels. The next three months is going to drag

I have Panther black. Sometimes I wonder if it's too under the radar. But when it's clean, wow it's a stand out colour. And timeless.
