Facelift Post Pics Of Your Facelift RS3 8V In Here

Isn't that the PFL? Funny its the same purple colour I was looking at earlier. You guys got any tips to get the Audi dealers to drop the price, there's now 41 RS3 saloons on the audi website, which is quite a lot since when I started searching there used to be under 20. However, all the dealers are saying there's very limited stock. I've just been noticing more and more and hardly any are selling. Almost 30 on autotrader too, some are the same but a lot are different.

Reckon a bit of patience needed (says he, I am terrible!) but the closer to year end surely some want to do a deal
 
I've tried showing some that they've overpriced the cars by showing them other cars from Audi dealers with same spec but different colour that are 3-4k cheaper, but then they stop responding for some reason. I don't like that Army Green one but I still tried talking the price down of it which was stupidly high, and he came back saying its the only one in the country in that colour. Somehow he said that it was the only pan roof rs3 saloon on sale in the uk too when its clearly not and that ceramic brakes are very expensive. Those 3 points meant he wouldn't budge on the price.

I think because the new ones are on hold that’s why the used market is priced high. Your buying at the wrong time I’m afraid. People know if you really want one and don’t want to wait 9 months for a new build you will pay for one a bit overpriced
 
This thread needs tidying up mods.......@Sandra

It's for posting pictures of owners FL cars (as per title)

Not debating about supposed over priced cars:blahblah1: if you want to do that why not start a new thread in the main section.

Or posting pictures of random Audi's with big exhausts that some seem to want to mock...........

I'd agree 2-3 months ago when every car I was interested in (and posted here) sold quite quickly. Now though, the number of available cars are just piling up and I'm not seeing many disappear. Might be a seasonal thing with more cars being sold in late summer than now, my P/X value has gone a bit from then too. I also had an Audi dealer tell me that I could order a new one now and I'd get it around March/April time. They said:

"You can order a car and we are due to have them arrive in March. We are currently waiting the sign off for the new WLTP engine so it wont go into build until December/January however if you place an order it will go into a queue to get build in a first come first serve basis."

Sorry for taking the thread off topic. I don't think I'm too far off now from posting my own FL RS3 pictures on here :D

Hope that was not aimed at me, I clearly posted a picture of a car. Doesn’t matter if it was mine or not

Yeah but new ones are popping up just as fast though. Funny thing is the nogaro blue one was bought by another dealer who was selling it for £3k more than what it was at before, so it was back on autotrader 3-4 days after it was taken off. At that point it seemed like a rip off but someone bought it within a week. Annoying thing was that I sold myself on the purple one and now its gone, I really doubt there's another one around. Hopefully my original choice Floret Silver pops up. A new one today is £42k Nardo Grey RS3 Saloon, 17 plate with 14000 miles. Personally I think its too much miles for the price.

Huh? You wrote nothing there skibuddy? But yeah that quote is just showing how a month ago, they were selling within a week. Funny thing is that Riviera Blue one is back for sale now for the same price but moved all the way to Edinburgh now from Bedford.

This car was / is my mates, it had practically every option ticked when ordered and came out at £65k. It's a Porsche colour been well looked after and had a lot of interest due to its individual status. Personally it's not my cup of tea but each to their own, yes it's overpriced but what do people expect the dealers always take the micky when they can. I am not too sure if it's now sold but the dealer was selling it for him, it will sell with all the options on it. He isn't in a rush as he has a lovely new toy on order.

Nothing as far as I know. It was my plan when I was going to get a brand new one, leave the alloys standard and get the black ones after or as someone else has done, get them diamond cut. They might cost more than if you spec them with the car though.

In other news, theres this overpriced Army Green RS3 Saloon that just popped up. https://usedcars.audi.co.uk/usedcar...p-all-wheel-drive-other-1_GBR00402606116.htm#

It's the most expensive RS3 Saloon out there from what I can see. £58k for an 18 plate with 8,000 miles. Madness in my opinion.

I like the individuality of the green but can’t see how it came out at £65k, mine was just over £56k and the only options it doesn’t have are ceramics, matrix lights and the RS interior pack

Just specced this

Add in carbon ceramic brakes and an exclusive colour and it would be up to 66k.

But the green car doesn’t have roof rails, rs design pack and a few other bits

Strikes me as strong money
 
Fair enough that it did cost that much new, its just not something I'd go for with what the price is. When I'm looking at used cars, I'm not really checking how much it cost new because it won't change the GFV Audi give you anyway, I just compare it with what else is available.

Anyway here's some unique ones I've found on instagram. Here's one is San Marino Blue which is normally a BMW colour.



Here's another green one, I'm pretty sure its a different shade of green.



A lighter green one here, you can scroll through the pictures.



Another green one one, never seen this colour before.

The car in the second picture is the same car everyone dislikes.

Love it Billy, great colour choice.

Have you put the carbon diffuser on? If so have you got any pictures please?
 
I just saw that on instagram and was about to post it. Said something about a wrap in the instagram post. Did you not like Ara Blue?
