Facelift Post Pics Of Your Facelift RS3 8V In Here

Does it catch at all when driving? Any scraping?

Slight rub on the front air vents in the arch when in reverse on lock - no a major issue, by the time I look in more detail the tyres will wear and it will stop

Did that without the drop too.

Ban him!!! We need to all start a petition for Doc to wash his car ;)
It generally gets professionally washed every other month by a detailer. It's like I've bought a brand new car every time it's washed and looks stunning.

When do you think they'll stop taking orders? I was thinking it'd be next year around autumn time.
The last PFL cars were delivered in early summer 2016 so, if Audi follow the same model, last orders will be March/ April I would have thought.

I finally have my black on black Sportsback. I have come from a 17 year old M Coupé with no traction control and very back-end happy. The RS3 is so planted and wow is it fast. Still trying to get to grips with the auto box!

Perfect timing seeing as they are talking about snow. Certainly for my 335D the first sprinkle of white stuff and it was game over.

You did well to drive one of those for 17yrs without putting it into a ditch!

Very nice...I kind of regret not sticking to Glacier on my soon to be new A4.

Yes time for a change had Misano,Mythos then Atlantic Blue so time for white to shine..........

Not that far away, I’d be amazed. If the books are open by the end of Spring next year I will be surprised. I believe it’s normally 9 months ish before they stop?

Surprised it did it without the drop, I will try on mine. What springs have you used? Any issues with speed bumps? Also, mag ride or not? Sorry for all the questions.. it’s something I’d like to do but don’t want to take any usability from the car.

+1, this is what I had in mind but it’s difficult to say and don’t want to be held to anything haha.
 
Talking about alloys, also noticed this yesterday. RS5 alloys look very similar to these Hyundai ones. I guess the Golf GTi ones are similar too.

I wonder if the usual rubbish Audi wheel designed called in sick that day, so they got in someone from agency :p

Not sure what to say about the RS5 wheels, I think I prefer them more in just a painted finish than diamond cut. I’d say about 80% of me doesn’t like them.
 
Does Audi still do the colour

Berry

As if I get the RS I must say I fancy berry with the lunar leather

If it's still as nice as I can remember

I'm using an RS3 how it was intended ;)

In your defence one of the advertisement campaigns was the RS3 driving through the woods with an Audi Quattro ;) Woods and Cotswolds, what’s the difference? ;)
 
I've owned my RS3 for a month now and I love it. I've just had a detail and protecting coating applied so thought it was about time I put a few pics up:

Looks fantastic! This daytona with black pack seems a Nardo Pearl Effect :sign wow:

Which coating have you used? I have to receive mine in 2 weeks and then CQuartz Reserve (same combo but with blade wheels).
 
I was fortunate to catch some sun on collection day. Very, very happy.

Cracking blue, what name do Audi give this one as I’ve never seen it before

Thanks, I went for the Gtechniq Crystal Serum + Exo products.
