I’ve ordered a saloon also but the first dealer I went to said October 22 and I thought that was ridiculousSaloon, I did ask the dealer today if changing to a sportback would speed things up and he seemed to think not.

Ah so you’ll be getting a July/August delivery then I’m guessingTbh I anticipated a long wait, week 23 is around June, hoping it comes forward of course but not unexpected.

Yup - I did a 3.4 in my car the other day, rocket shipNothing to do with being experienced. I can see the time code on the video and Final Cut Pro editing software and it matches exactly.
3.8 is easily achievable and faster is possible.
Is there piped exhaust noise into the cabin?10 days of ownership and plenty of miles done! Any questions fire away I’ll do my best to answer
Yes there is. And it is a real shame. There is an obvious difference in sound between the previous generation and the new model.Is there piped exhaust noise into the cabin?

My Golf R is white and originally I thought the white did not suit the RS3 but the more I see I have now come to the conclusion I may have chosen white over the Tango, but it's too late now due to build week and I guess i'm due a change anyway as my last two cars have been whitethat’s a nice spec mate & I agree the white looks really good.
Most other reviews havent noticed or were unable to tell if the noise being piped through the speakers, what makes you think that it is?Yes there is. And it is a real shame. There is an obvious difference in sound between the previous generation and the new model.
Audi seem to think they need to “pump” the noise into the cabin which isn’t needed.
Also the lack of pops and bangs when driving is noticeable. You get more of the turbo sound whoosh’s than pops and bangs. That is not to say they don’t happen and they may well come back as the car is run in but it sounds different. Not quiet but not as special.
imo I don't think there is any major fake noise in the cabin - barely noticeable if so but fair enough, RS Performance is really loud but I genuinely think it is the exhaust note as its just as loud outsideMost other reviews havent noticed or were unable to tell if the noise being piped through the speakers, what makes you think that it is?

I totally agree. Some of the early photos looks a bit naff but the recent pics & videos that have been posted look really good in white.

I’ve never liked white cars because my dad always had a white car (company car and it was the cheapest!! He wasn’t a car fan) but I must admit I too am finding it more appealing in the latest photos….
Carbon black trim with white bodywork would be a good combo.
Thats good then as on my Golf 7.5 R the soundaktor made it sound like a big end had gone when it was under load in 'race' setting, I used VCDS and turned it down, then turned it offAudi have confirmed to me that there is no soundaktor fitted and no fake sound piped into the cabin so not sure why you’re saying that tbh…?

Hi, glad that you are enjoying it. Just a couple of minor things to pre-empt my potential slight disappointment -10 days of ownership and plenty of miles done! Any questions fire away I’ll do my best to answer
Hi mate, just RS onto the floor and plain black mats all around unfortunatelyHi, glad that you are enjoying it. Just a couple of minor things to pre-empt my potential slight disappointment -
Does the Audi Beam project Audi Sport ot RS3?
Are the carpet mats plain, or does the driver's one have RS3 embroidered on it?
Thanks, Ian.

I think white is incredibly dated, was all the rage like 6 or 7 years ago but then yet again I like Nardo which a fair few don’t, so each to their own.

Okay, thanks. Prefer RS to Audi Sport, but RS3 would have been better, to match sill protectors.Hi mate, just RS onto the floor and plain black mats all around unfortunately
RS projections look cool.
I may get some aftermarket mats again as I did my last RS3 and have the edges piped in a contrast colour - they do look effective.

That is brilliant news if it is 100% accurate.
