totally agree. Imo most dark coloured S3's with the chrome trim and grill help emphasise the lines of the car around the windows as well as accentuating other areas like the front. looks special and definitely not tacky. others omit the chrome for a stealth appearance and understated look which I can also understand but with colours like black and estoril blue to me it's the icing on the cake.

That looks sweet. I needed the practicality of the Sportback otherwise I would have gone for the saloon.
Nice! How do you like the lunar silver interior? I did consider it, but decided against it - not sure I made right decision
I may be biased as I chose it, but I think it just makes the interior 100 times more special and unique. Really adds a bit of class and contrast to the vast black inside and red outside. I had lots of comments even from the guys in the dealership (I guess most go for black). I love how the black inlays look too.
I do love the super sports and would've chosen them in a heartbeat if they were in lunar too. But the only place I've seen that is in an Audi show car (think it was a convertable S3 iirc)
Here's my A3 8V
Didn't think the new 8V would look good with the older black edition rotors, how wrong was I (in white anyway)
Have to say - it does look great. I went for the super sports in the end
Agree entirely re the chrome trim. I didn't actually spec the car, but I'm really pleased with the look - wouldn't have changed it.
That's Milltek system on the GTR - so actually British through and through! Iain Litchfield likes to support UK manfacturers where possible/sensible so specced the Milltek sustems in his stage upgrades. Mine was running his stage 2, which is just exhaust and remap, but on the GTR it takes power from c 475bhp to c 590 bhp. For a few k you get an absolute animal of a car, but then the starting point is quite impressive on its own. I'll miss it.
I used to think so but I changed my mind are beautiful even the black edition rotors, even if off so much and very showy than those who ****** on me.

What size alloys are those?
The alloy wheels are replica from R18

I wanted to write black edition rotors beautiful even if it is a nice contrast with A3 color white ice

Collected today! Loving it so far, so much to entertain myself with! It feels such an upgrade on the 8p. The colour looks great, especially with those alloys. My detailer did a cracking job!
No, it's monsoon. I'm very happy with the colour. I think it suits the alloys perfectly
Excuse the crap photos
Goodbye old faithful friend
Hello new car you have a lot to live up to!

I never saw the beige colour option in the configurator! Seriously though the new car looks great - similar to the one I have on order. Put the full details on the A3/A3 Sportback register.
Very smart - the wheels are a nice contrast with the blue paintwork. No room for any more cars on your drive though!
Picked up mine yesterday enjoying looking at it as much as driving it!
hope the pictures work...

Pictures are looking good.
Now I know what my S3 will look like (except the wheels as I've gone for the S-Line wheels).
Congrats!

something has to be done to the front bumper triangle behind the lower grills. looks wayward to me
Question, has anyone got any pics of a white S Line 8V with the std 18" wheels pained dark grey or black? I like the look of the dark rotors on the last generation black edition, and I wondered what the latest wheels would look like in a darker colour, either the whole wheel or with the machined "highlights" and rim left silver?
Cheers !
Cheers !
Sorry but I don't agree - I think that's a real distinguishing feature versus the Sport.
Agree. If something were meant to be done with them then surely the design team would have exhausted this possibility pre production. I have seen a car where vinyl pieces have been placed in the shape of the triangles...looked pants imo.
