I replaced my 2018 S3 with a 2016 RS3.
Part of the attraction was an Audi Exclusive colour and big spec to go with a drivetrain upgrade. It’s a pre-facelift with the last of the iron block 5-cyl engines and optional super sports exhaust. Meaning that now-illegal noise is the compensation for losing my old S3’s Tech Pack.
Cars like the Golf R32 are already history and the RS3 will be headed that way soon, too. I’ll have owned both before they got too old for daily use.
