Currently sat in my dealership pricing up a new car, been told that the Black Edition is available to order.

Typical Audi tho, no one here is 100% sure what the "edition" includes outside of black wing mirrors, black pack grill and window surrounds and piano black inlays.

Surprised it took so long for Audi to release a BE for the A3. The new A4 is also crying out for a BE.

Interesting and sod's law the car is built and on way to Emden therefore the black Edition from my working out means the BSp (grille and surrounds) work out at something like £70 if you price up the wheels, speakers and privacy glass on a normal A3.

However the upgrade to BO becomes cheaper but not if you're buying the Comfort Pack...good old Audi

B and O also by looks of it
 
Looked at it on Audi UK website.....it says it is the Audi Sound System, and not the B&O as noted above.

Has anyone else looked it up in case I'm wrong?

The app in two places says B and O. And the black edition has always come with B and O so can't see this changing

S3 gets B&O, all others get ***.

Just looked on the website on the PC and it mentions Audi Sound system.

Edit: Shows the B & O as a £495 optional extra.
 
Doesn't look like you can buy a Mythos Black , Black Edition

you have a black edition before it's gone in to production in the U.K.?! That is impressive lol
 
Well whatever someone posted with the list of things that the black edition has....i have them but with 19 inch wheels. Black edition. Black styling pack. Same **** different name.... one with smaller wheels. Changing it to edition doesnt make it more special

Good man, I could tell you were on the case ;)
No just explaining that my s3 has 19s but everything else in that black edition list is the same as my goodies. Why do they make smaller wheels for s3... its like going for the stripper with the smaller boobs

Looking at the configurator, Vegas yellow, Tango red, Floret silver, yes. Blacks and whites possibly. Not the best wheels, something a bit darker and bigger would look better. B&O standard with black edition.
