Anyone who’s been through the colour dilemma, knows the sleepless nights it can cause thinking you could possibly be stuck with a car in a colour you regret :sob::sob:

My salesman reckons I’ll have the only Java Green RS3 in the UK (I believe that like I believe in those penis enlarging pills lol)

So once again a big thank you, you guys have been a genuine help! I’ll try to upload pics on here once the car arrives but if anyone wants to follow me Instagram to see the car just search LSBasi

Cheers Guys

Must admit, I’m disappointed not being able to spec the ceramic brakes. Purely for the rotational weight reduction

Surely the option wasn’t removed because of abit of squeaking :flushed:

They killed a lot of options on the post WLTP cars. painted callipers, extended leather, wheel options, decent floor mats, paint choices for a while. Likely some belt tightening in Ingolstadt, or just running down the existing parts supply until the next RS3 comes along. It might have been noise complaints with the ceramic brakes, but even the standard brakes are prone to squeal a bit.

If they’ve killed certain so they’re not left with extra parts when they discontinue the current model, that’s terrible on Audi’s behalf!

I really wanted the ceramic brakes and carbon inlay engine cover.

Ive heard you can’t upgrade to full ceramics at a later date as it messes with your ABS or something or other
 
WLPT and RDE regs mean that all options have to homologated and its simply too much work and therefore cost to do. That's why a lot of options have been removed and now extras are offered as part of packages.
