Have not reason to say otherwise. But if you launch a rs3 8V. It's noticeably quicker... My experience from owning both. That's all.
And I loved that rs5.. and still do. Wish rs3 was the same colour but was about a good deal....

I'm going to say the rs5 definitely looks better. Miss the slick look on my drive. And rs5 had way more toys! Advanced key, pano roof, high def display (did not get the tech pack). And the v8 scream (at the top end) is a great thing.
But the rs3 is a whole new animal. Having considered (and...
Achieve? Practicality. A change! And as my rs5 is getting to 70k miles time to change (as I did when my b7 rs4 got to that point).

Hello all,
Simple question. Does moving to a RS3 from a 2010 RS5 make sense? Driven a 2012 plate one briefly but couldn't open it up due to the edgy salesman. I know the interior and tech is way below what I have (reversing camera, drive select with sports diff). And I'll miss the V8...
Ruined it for me. At start of April was ready to trade in the trusty b7 RS4 (best car I've ever owned, never had an issue with it in 3 years. But with 78K on was time to move on) on a 2013 black s5 coupe. Tried the RS5 with sports exhaust and was sold. It's a different beast in terms of setup...
My 2 cents. Try both, I did. The s5 nicer inside no question. Nicer dash. Seats better in rs4 the buckets are so comfy (unless your a large person). Performance there is a difference. The RS isn't much quicker but if the DRC isn't nakkered it nails it on the track. And it sounds better. Both...
Try more than one!! Check service history. Some I tried def seemed down on power. Did seen to match up with no FASH. Love mine. Had it three weeks massive step up from S4 let alone A1, enjoy!! Post pics!
Loving it. Although badge fell out of flat bottom wheel. 70 quid replacement? Ha. Better than other examples tried before. Seriously good performance!! :) happy camper
