This is mine so far. I don't see an option for privacy glass?

Brave choice but it does look really good.
The front matrix system on the 8v and on the TT do a little jig as well "curtain closers"but it's done by the actual matrix modules not the drls like in the 8Y which is just as effective...there is nowt new about the 8Y over the 8v mate bar the cascading rear light effect but this novelty wears off after awhile...like in my TT rear lights but Matrix lights are a must have where l liveYeah but those fancy dancing patterns on start up and shut down look absolutely spectacular !

sounds better again with the sports exhaust
Is that massage from the seats or the German lady who stroked the 5 cyl on YT?
Privacy Glass is in the configurator as I saw that this morning. 350-400 EUR if I remember.This is mine so far. I don't see an option for privacy glass?

Just seems like a good option to try and get as much sound as possible from 5 CylinderI would say the sports exhaust won't add much drama at all given how strangled the exhaust systems are now
Yes the retained value is part of the attraction especially as we enter the Petrol/Electric transition phase. My thoughts are better to have something that other people/enthusiasts would want rather than a run of mill model that won't keep people's interest down the line.I think in the current climate / shortages of parts / used cars increasing in price / RS models never commanding much discount - it may take some time for any meaningful discount to materialise, if at all - I would say in all seriousness that with many materials and commodities continuing to increase in price, there is a fair chance that prices could increase on the cars as time goes on thus negating any discount if you were able to get any. Either way do not expect anything meaningful off an RS car. But on the flip side they do hold their value way more than any other variants. My last RS3 retained 70% of its value after owning it for 4 years
The German market gets the Full Monty of trim and individuals options across all S/RS cars plus the Edition 1 S3 As l have said before they held back the 8y S3 red interior design package probably an addition on a MY model update but l think the red design pack will be available as a option on UK cars £1250 est.... dont know so much about the Kermit one??? would like to think that a blue interior design pack will come along as wellI've been busy studying the RSQ3 on Audi UK configurator. Do the experts think that the RS3 will basically follow a similar spec and trim selection.
I had a sudden flash that what I needed in my car was red edged seatbelts, so if the RS Design Plus Pack doesn't become an option I may need to re-consider. Do you think they were waiting for RS3 to offer the UK market that option. I know it was previously offered on 8V RS3. Or is this part of the policy that they just drop any option that has never been that popular and do the stupid trim levels, because its easier for them.
I've heard they are building sportbacks 1st and giving those priority
Nothing in it Glen considering the cost of it back in 2018 OPF cars but you'll get the same 5 cylinder sound piped into the Cabin SO BEST TO TURN UP THE BASS on the Bang & Olufsen.....lolsounds better again with the sports exhaust
I thought we already knew the base prices. £50.900 for sport back and £51,900 for saloon?

Carbon edition really.....!!!I don't think any of us actually read the UK site as it doesn't have a live configurator!
Good catch!
So essentially the base costs £4k less than my almost fully loaded 2018. And I had a discount so it is actually only £1k less.
The key question here is does the UK model include as standard any features not on German models? and are the different trims better value? We don't know that yet.
EDIT:
3 Trims; two of them are Vorsprung & Carbon and I guess Standard Trim
RS Sports Seats Standard
Very similar styled grill to my TTS barring the rings on it that isThere is a matt aluminium pack - but it adds aluminium contrast as in these photos and around the window frames.

Dealer said three trims. Standard, carbon and Vorsprung with one maybe coming available slightly later. Also hinted at performance variant later in the cycle. Maybe that’s why they kept the same power level.

I heard this TTS tonight it sounds ****** good pops and crackles at stand still even better as it pulled away especially for the EA888 320 variantsounds better again with the sports exhaust
And what Glen wants Glen gets....lolim not usually one for Ali trim but that looks good and it does go great with Daytona grey BUT ... I don’t want it on the window cappings, I want those black.

Never heard my car as a bystander lol
Brings the memories flooding back lolyeah I think the TTS is one of the best 4 pots.
thats looks damn good

Surprised you don’t mate

So much hype & anticipation back in the day when that episode airedBrings the memories flooding back lol
I’m hoping it’s a case of selecting the vorsprung and everything’s included as in the S3 and TTS / TTRS.I just hope there's not daft little compromises like there is with the RS6 between the carbon trim and the vorsprung trim for example you can't seem to spec the pan roof on the carbon trim version of the rs6......for the most part I'm actually glad everything is compressed as the German configurator is TOO detailed to a fault but I don't want the UK options to be have silly things missing from each trim level.
Performance version is a pipe dream
I think it will be for the most part BUT if there is a carbon option (which there isn't on the S3 and TTRS) I think it force any potential customers into choosing between some options...for example I think any carbon edition will come with black roof rails but no ability to spec a pan roof.....likewise the vorsprung edition may have the black optics package but no option for a carbon rear spoiler which maybe included in the carbon edition.....and the design pack (green/red accenting and alcantara wheel) could be missing from the carbon edition.I’m hoping it’s a case of selecting the vorsprung and everything’s included as in the S3 and TTS / TTRS.
