New RS3 8Y Design Details

that same document also says seats have anthracite stitching, so yeah... no design packs

F U Audi lol


but does have the 12oclock marker on the steering wheel?

I'm not looking anymore, everything is contradicting and confusing. Why Audi - is it that difficult?

(apparently... yes)

No clue snake
I’m thinking carbon at the mo
Although vorsprung as it has the 360 camera auto boot cos I’m lazy
Good for my garage parking as it’s a little tight
If I can spec up a carbon to near vorsprung I will go that route
Carbon has the correct interior
Correct wheels
Vorsprung seems to be for posh people like jassy
Want sports exhaust
Red brakes and interior
Roof doesn’t bother me as I’ve never even opened it on A7
Don’t need ceramics

After the A7, you will not find your garage tight

but we are, let us be :laughing:

only way to get sports exhaust and ACC on the carbon though ....... or so we think atm
The standard RS3 Saloon with a panoramic roof interior design pack comfort and sound plus maybe a few wee bits n pieces will do me no mag ride no sport's exhaust.... they aint worth jumping to another far more expensive model for ....get a exhaust upgrade if required later not even bothering about matrix candles keeping the price around £58k
Not interested in DAP Carbon Bits,especially mag ride my TTS has it drove Jordan's black edition TTS not much difference if any between non mag ride and a car with it

Ok you’ve convinced me. It’s a standard RS3 in Tango Red or Daytona.

Do you offer a money back guarantee if it turns out not to be best spec.........lol.

no pano with the standard car, if you believe the DCC
Pano roof only available on vorsprung models across the A3 range - one of the options impacted by the chip shortages

No panoramic roof option because of the chip shortages l am in no rush as for the stand alone interior design pack that will come ....Audi are very predictable

don't hold your breath on an interior design pack....
hopefully if will be there but would not be surprised if it’s not. Reality is this is a niche car in a niche market ( i.e right hand drive). Volumes of uk models will be relatively low so audi are always going to give priority always to lhd markets.

Assuming the dealer configurator is correct then the biggest surprise for me is the lack of a sports exhaust option. Many people will buy the car because of the sound of the 5 pot alone and having a sports exhaust would be a no brainier option. Interestingly if correct the new RS3. Will be the only petrol RS model where you can’t spec the sports exhaust as a standalone option which feels like a major miss

It’s not a miss it’s a direct hit as they know we will go for the dynamic pack to get it.

So if and when you do go for a RS3 Saloon mate would you go Exclusive again? Or standard colour (obv. Not turbo blue )

I would point out that the RS3 is built in a different factory to the standard A3 (I think) LOL

Look there are delays - we accept that; that is why I can get a £12k positive swing on my finance from WBAC and why I hope the dealer tomorrow will make me a sweat deal!

Don’t think that’s the case anymore.
Am pretty sure I read they are adapting the production line to build them with the other A3’s.

What sort of sweat deal

When you say a sweet deal what are you expecting ? / I am guessing you mean a good px price ? as I can't see discounts anytime soon

Yes I mean PX - If I could actually get that £12k value into a deposit then that would be great, of course I would also like to think I can get a discount as a previous customer at the very least.

However no discount now doesn't mean you can't get one closer to delivery, I had a £2k discount added just before I did the finance on my current car because I complained that the pricing wasn't what we agreed so they discounted it.

Having said all that primarily what I am looking for tomorrow is that PX value and either a large reduction in or no order deposit as I am pretty confident I may change my spec a few times between now and the end of the year.

Fair enough what sort of monthly payment would 12k give you ?

That depends on the car spec I choose and the finance Audi is doing which I don't think anyone has got actual numbers on yet. I hope to have some myself tomorrow and I imagine I wont be the only one.

I wouldn’t “sweat” on PX deal, plenty of places offering top whack for decent used. WBAC, Motorway, Wizzle, and depending what you have independent performance car sales dealerships

Not If you want the options then people will pay. If you want pan roof and alot of the other decent options then people will get it.
The panoramic roof will always be a individual option to chose but not at the moment
 
Well I guess I’m officially back, deposit paid today slot 8 out of 12 secured at Milton Keynes Audi!
