£2k mate straight off the bat yet to hear from the actual sales guy the APR is only 5-9% lower than on the TTS that's 6-5%

GFMV is around £31k after 4 years
Coast2coast are very efficient got a phone call yesterday morning then a finance quote via email last night then another this morning asking if l was happy with the quote
£420@month with a standard colour
£460 with a so called exclusive paint
Dep £18k
I'm interested to know how you've managed to get the 5.9% APR on an RS product! Every dealership I've spoken to have said the flat rate for all RS cars is 6.4%?
 
is that who you used for the TTS ?
When do you find out which Dealer they are sourcing from - wasn't your last one Grimsby JCT 600.
I have used coast2coast before for my Voodoo blue,drivethedeal for the TTS....drivethedeal haven't got the RS3 8Y on their site yet Drivethedeal normally give better discounts on Audi's over coast2coast,drivethedeal beat coast2coast by £3k on my TTS
Drivethedeal used Grimsby Audi
Coast2coast used whetstone Audi for my Voodoo and now it's Brighton Audi
90% of my RS3 deposit comes from the sale of the TT only getting permission for the RS3 because l promised Avril a visit to Turkey in November for new teeth veneers true...

I suppose that's the wheel you get on a Vorsprung has it got Alcantara on it if so I'll get it recovered i hate that stuff only belongs on interior car surfaces/areas where thare aint continuous contact isn't involved as it just goes bald

My dealer said that not every exclusive colour would be available… that there would be an exclusive colour palette that could be chosen for the rs3.

Don’t know what you mean by “you just have to be familiar with them” though?

Unless my dealer misinformed me and absolutely anything can be chosen?
Which Dealer are you involved with....
The only time l personally have had issue's with Audi's with exclusive paint ordering was back in 2017 where for a period of 3 months they temporarily stopped them afterwards it was business as normal so l ordered Voodoo blue which was a very new colour to the Porsche PTS range

No, I'm just genuinely curious how you managed to coax them into it. I've asked 6 or 7 different dealerships and their answer has always been the same, with no room to budge regardless of the deposit amount.

Arrogant... really l thought l was just a cheeky barsteward lol "when in Rome" as they say a get it as well as dish it out @Keano04
Riviera is a vibrant light blue but not cheap looking as some light blue cars can look, Lairy yes... but it could change when l get home and can do some research

Haha yeah all a bit of fun so glad you took my post in the tongue in cheek way it was intended

Have you actually gone for riviera? I thought you were just trollin!!!

I’ve got a bit of a thing for Porsche colours at the moment: oak green (with yellow/gold touches for wheels); gentian blue (with anthracite wheels/touches); and arena red (again anthracite or black wheels/touches) are my current favourites… although with so much choice it changes fairly regularly!!!

In terms of Audi colours they are possibly most similar to verdant green, mystic blue and maybe nice red…?

Soooo many to chose from… not an easy task.

I am very familiar with gentian blue...horrid dull blue lol it was/still is a colour choice on the 718 verdant green very nice retro 70s for a green paint think its a pearlescent paint

How very dare you!! I did spec it up on a gts4.0 that I was considering but when the LE was available I ditched the Porsche as it would be 10+ months wait vs LE hopefully being here before Xmas… bit short sighted of me perhaps but meh roll on the rs3.

Yeah the round wheel with vorsprung - something to do with one of the driving aids (can't remember which one)
The flat bottomed wheel is for the standard and carbon car.
Both full leather so no alcantara or fake furry stuff.

You do realise too mate that you’ll get the alloys with the graphics you previously said you didn’t like ... & it was your comments that put me off them tbh lol. The more I looked at them the more I became concerned that they did look a bit of an acquired taste ....

fair enough & that’s a reasoned considered view point.
Luckily for me, carbon just loses the sunroof.
I’m not fussed about the other gadgets especially HUD which I think might annoy me & the vibrating steering wheel.
I really like the carbon pack & alloys though and that’s what steered me to saloon on this occasion.
Think it will look awesome in Daytona

Remember jassyo06 this forum is corrupt apparently and Facebook groups are the ‘way forward’ according to a certain contributor to this very thread………

Although if you look at these ‘way forward’ FB groups there’s just swearing and childish behaviour, oh and the same old brakes/maps/ tyres questions asked .

But what I find even funnier is the links posted back to this very ‘corrupt’ forum for anything technical / useful.
