Just landed at my local dealer. I should be happy it’s there for demo drives but on the other hand Im cringing because I think it’s a terrible spec…

Hahaha, I’m not that hard to please, I just really don’t like Turbo Blue. A guy near me has an A4 avant in it and it looks horrible (to me). Even my wife who’s not a car person has commented on it before, just saying it’s very bright looking but flat at the same time.

Think the silver /Ali, goes well with the blue better than the black would.

Not the biggest fan of turbo blue at all but got to agree with you - would imagine it’ll look great against the black accents
You do know Kermit green is going to be very common on the RS3

That's put all my worries to bed about my order. Although mine is a sportback, it wears blue so well in standard spec

if you keep on top of detailing Turbo it looks good l actually think it suits the design of the A3/S3/RS3 better than it does the TTS/TTRS

Enough of the Turbo blue but why has that car got aluminium trim with matrix headlights, the standard alloys?

I do like blue cars but not sure I can love turbo blue... but having said that i’m Thinking I want to see kemora grey in the metal.

Still would like Tango Red but would probably go Daytona (at the moment). I’ll have to start visiting dealers to see if they have a RS3 in showroom.

Nearly as good looking as myself that is ... you do know realise that spec and colour is a Baw Hair off the Vader spec....lol

yeah it’s close but grey is still not black lol ... I hope it’s not a b**** to keep clean as silver & white have been great.
Panther black & estoril blue were a nightmare ... I think I do need to tick off Daytona though, it is a very nice shade of grey & suits RS models across the Audi range.

These have got to be LE cars no? Non standard UK specs?

I do like that black with alu trim. Just need to fix the bit around the windows and that's a great looking car, wheels an all.

Definitely not LE cars, they haven’t got things like the red callipers, HUD, black wheels, panoramic roof, etc.

I’m surprised they got standard cars before Launch Editions to be honest, I’d have thought they’d prioritise the LE’s.

You cannot spec matrix lights on a standard UK car. All these shown last few days have matrix lights.

Oh, I get you now! I didn’t realise you couldn’t spec them, you definitely could when the configurator first became available but I haven’t been through all the options on a base car for a while. Haha. Well pointed out!

You could never spec them on the base car from day1 launch of the UK configurator

Maybe it was just on the dealer one then, that’s what I’ve been using for the most part. But no idea when it changed, or why they don’t give the option to put them on since they’re a good option.
