New S3 review (15/09/20)

Imo, 8Y saloon is looking far better than the SB


Imo, 8V saloon looks as good as the SB


But..... Saloon drives better, really?

Face lift hatch with magride and 19s handles far better than one without S3 saloon has a wider front track which in turn makes it handle a bit better

Got you, so different set ups, always assumed that they were the same underneath.

Interesting M3/4 release video today.

I wan't sure about the grille either but on the m3/4 I think it works . The interior looks good especially the seats I even think the green paint
and black wheels work for the M cars .

Its doesn't drive better its the same car and your in the minority of people who think it looks better sale prove that .
Go look at comparison youtube reviews of both....
Why do you think the rs3 sportback has flared front arches and the rs3 saloon doesnt....the 8v saloon doesnt share one single body panel with the sportback...so yeah its the same car .........?????

Were talking about S3 not Rs3

They might not share the same panels as one is a Sportback and one is a saloon you don't have to be Einstein to work that one out .

The laughs on you they are the same car :laughing:

been watching a few of the S3 Ed1 reviews and honestly loving the look of the Saloon. SB just looks terrible this time round (and no, I am not biased, I have a MY18 RS3 8V SB!!!!!)

RS3 Saloon looks to be on the cards for me next yr hopefully

If the Liftback ever happens this might be the best of both worlds. Got to to say the red and black combo looks good.

Back in the day when the 8v forum was at it's peak....there were loads of Sportback owners who had the same mindset as yourself....otherwise known as The Sportback chip on their shoulder brigade
