Looks great, there is definitely something very cool about the 4 exhausts.

Without the four exhausts I'm not sure id have gone for the s3, it was a big thing for me!
There's line IMO where if you're spending that sort of money on a fast car you want one or two tell tail signs that it's a tyre shredder. Nothing OTT though.

4 Exhausts please Mr Wolfgang Egger, however, i fail to see how the colour of the Star design anthracite alloys fit in with the rest of the car like the aluminium window surrounds, mirror housings, headlight housing and front grill? The 5 Parallel spoke alloys i feel suit the S3 but i am a little disappointed that they are also an available option on the S-Line A3 therefore diminishing ever so slightly the exclusivity of the S3 and associated options. Many may disagree with my evaluation and others might not.
Thoughts S3 buyers/owners?
Which alloys and
You just bought an S3 and have no mobile phone with a camera?
What was your spec? so we can visualise your new S3 that you picked up today? Well done BTW.
I have 19s with 35 section Yokohama Advans on my current DD and it's grip is unquestionable but the ride is utterly harsh and unforgiving on our pot holed roads.
40 section offers a little more compliance but mated to the comfort mode through drive select, the new s3 rides beautifully.
i like the standard alloy and have taken that as the wheel option.........as well as buying 4x Yokohama winter tyres !

I love the standard S3 wheel - the different angled surfaces pick up the light differently. To me it's a refreshing change from a fairly smoothed faced alloy (such as the Seattle alloys on my current Golf).
Makes me feel a lot better about not having 19s
So you have magride then? What's your DD?
Cheers
oops, sorry, no mag ride taken either.. Current DD is a honda civic mugen m20. Quite a specialised machine but just a bit OTT for dailyduties unfortunately.
What's your non daily driver?
In what way is the Civic specialised and why the change to Audi?
My mobile is a cheap £14.99 Samsung flip phone from Tesco, i need a new one.
The colour and spec of our S3 is:
Misano red
S-Tronic
Driver assistance pack
Parade red design pack
Technology pack
Auto dimming rear view mirror
Interior light pack
Auto release parking brake
Aluminium roof rails
Tyre pressure monitor
Electric lumbar support
Audi pre sense basic
Audi active lane and side assist
Bang and Olufsen sound system
£30k plus car and a £14.99 mobile, laughable mate, so how much did you pay in the end? which dealer and did you get any discount?
What's wrong with a £14.99 mobile?
I only need a phone that makes and receives calls. If i need to take a picture i'll use a camera and to check the internet i'll use my laptop.
Not really interested in this modern technology if i don't need it.
I can remember when there was only three channels on the TV and you had to get up off your **** to change them, Currys used to be in the high street and they sold black and white televisions and phone boxes took 2p's. :icon_thumright:
Oh yes, the dealer was Crewe Audi.
You aren't interested in modern technology if you don't need it, but have specced all of that on your car?
Is this a wind up?
Anyway, you have one of the first S3 Sportback's in the UK so we demand pictures, so go and get your polaroid and use your fax machine to make copies, then post some by carrier pigeon to someone who has better technological capabilities so we can all get a look at your pride and joy!!!!!

Hey gents
Ordered a glacier white S3 sportback s-tronic build week 48 I think. Spec still up in the air as I got a great deal off drive the deal and gonna use that to try up my spec .
One thing i have have noticed, know one has ordered the black grill and window surrounds pack (basically black edition) is there a reason why? Would look great on a glacier white car with the anthracite alloys and privacy glass, that's the look I've gone for anyway.
How did you get week 48... Ordered last week and we are week 6!
Why Audi ? Comfort, refinement and it doesn't make mrs tlr sick when on a back road charge.
also, it's 4wd and has rails which is great for our cycling and skiing.......
oh, oh, and the b&o sound system is superb too
I was thinking that too - I ordered mine over 3 weeks ago and got a week 50 build.
Agree that some carbon on the interior would have been nice, but think this is being reserved for the RS3!

Can you spec the super sport seats with the electric adjustment option? Doesn't say much in the brochure about it.
Also anyone tried or used autoebid???
Good news. Did Aberdeen give any discount or did they just laugh?
