    RS3 seats spec

    My opinion is always right..............to me. Not saying it's right for others, just expressing. I can't say for sure, but am pretty convinced that the S/RS5 has a seating position that's nearer to the ground in comparison to the S/RS3. I wouldn't have this type of car without a bucket...

    RS3 seats spec

    The seating position is hugely important in this type of car (or it should be), and the RS3 has it wrong. It's a RS, should have a better option than the S available. Super Sports Seats are not low enough, not supportive enough for spirited driving, nor do they look great - I think they are...

    RS3 Review by Carspy

    The more I see of Nardo the more I think it's the wrong colour for this car.

    RS3 as a daily driver.... (and insurance for a 21 year old)

    I'd suggest that all Audi's, with the exception of possibly only the R8, can easily be used as everyday cars. That is the beauty of Audi S and RS: they are sporty versions of practical cars, but not 100% focussed driving machines, because of that they don't compromise on year round usability...

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    I love these posts. I can afford a much more expensive product, but choose not to as I don't want to spend that much money. I agree though, less into cars, more into property! Unless those cars are depreciation proof that is. Why didn't you order the F Type? They are absolutley superb cars...

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    They need to be about 6 inches further apart and more set into the diffuser, possibly even with black tips (Akrapovic style). This looks a bit like an aftermarket effort that doesn't quite fit perfectly.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    Like the look of the Golf, although those two exhausts don't look right. Too big to be that close to the centre of the car.

    My advice - drive it yourself

    Everyone is allowed an opinion, even those that are wrong.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    A45 looks great. Just needs to lose the shopping trolley handle spoiler.

    Well Audi had the fastest hatch for a very short while....

    Some of you RS3 order placers are somewhat insecure about your future cars. If you are happy with it then who cares what else is out there or what else anyone thinks. We all have different desires from our cars, just accept other opinions and don't get so uptight when other cars are better than...

    Tough Choice

    Had they taken the seats/seating position from the new TT, that would have made a huge difference to the RS3.

    Well Audi had the fastest hatch for a very short while....

    Neither the RS3, nor the S3 were ever going to be the best in their sector. Straight line speed/power is only one element of a fairly big picture. It's the other areas that make Audi's fall behind the opposition.

    Tough Choice

    SuperSports in the demo I drove. Far too high! I don't think there is much, if any, difference, despite what a "technician" at Audi said.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    If the front diff works well, it could make this the fastest in a straight line and when you throw a corner at it. Very surprised Audi haven't offered this yet, it would vastly improve the set up. The looks of the A45 are growing on me somewhat the more I see, but it still isn't a looker.

    RS3 Reviews - getting negative?

    The only good thing is that they will fold down and make the boot bigger. As far as any rear seated passenger is concerned they are virtually pointless (including children/toddlers), and it would quickly become a pain in the ***.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    Wheels are slightly modern looking, an anthracite/gunmetal version would be great. Far better than the dull as dishwater Rotor's. If the car comes out looking like that it will be the best looking hatch out there. How it drives is anyone's guess.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    Yeah, supposedly less than £30k too. Will undoubtedly drive well and the looks are growing on me (Although not that baby blue). Worth a drive when they are available.

    RS3 Recall

    Disappointing if I'm going to be honest. Had a go in the new TTS too and it's far more enjoyable to drive, despite being down on power.

    RS3 Reviews - getting negative?

    Agree with you entirely. Not special enough to merit the cost of upgrading from a S3. TTS on the other hand, if you can do without the rear seats, it's well worth it!

    RS3 Recall

    Drove it at 11am this morning.
