I know that's not a new vid, but I do not like that iteration of the Saloon front end, a step backwards from the current front end RS3.

 

Maybe it's not for me if it turns up looking like that.


MY16 Glutorange RS3 - how the hell did you not see me coming!

In our German forum a person claiming to be working at Audi said that the saloon shown in the video is a "Technikträger".
A car which is not finished but is supposed to give a preview of what the finalizied product will be.
He is also pretty sure that the brake caliper placement will change back to the current state once the car is done.
He also stated that there might be bigger changes made to the front setup of the car (suspension and positioning of other things).

TT RS coupe OTR price will be £51800 the roadster is £53550 OTR. Will be open for ordering on the 22nd August and first cars will land with customers in November 2016. Standard Specification is high with MMI Navigation Plus, Deluxe AC controls in dials, Audi connect for 3yrs, 19" alloys, RS brakes, RS suspension, Steering wheel with start button and drive select and so on. Still bloody expensive! Might wait a bit longer and see where the RS3 Saloon fits in this as it is rumoured to be shown at Paris or LA car shows (plus gives time for TT discounts etc.).

Wasn't a fan of RS in a sedan, but I'll happily make the trade if they offer the ceramics and buckets

Hearing rumours of major delays with some VAG suppliers and some kind of dispute is causing massive delays to production lines. Seemingly the new models are suffering most with Q2 and TT RS delays now hitting home and likely to see deliveries fall back to Christmas or New Year at the earliest. S4 and S5 are open to order in Germany but no sign of UK getting any for a long time and some options have run so low, like alloy wheel designs, that customers are being given what is available and not what they ordered. Seems like adding so many new cars with lots more in the pipeline and major supplier disputes will have a big impact on all models going forward. RS3 Saloon is coming to the UK, but it will take a while longer yet before any official confirmation.

Still no snap crackle and pop, I wonder if Audi might be toning down the sound from the Sedan compared to the Sportback? It amazes me that a Clubsport Golf can sound more sporty... and more loud

Current RS3 is mental in sound dept, I did hear a rumour a while back that Audi were told to tone it down next time!

Been out today on little run with a c63 amg black series and other cars, I think AMG sounds fantastic, all the other drivers/cars thought my rs was louder, I did have it in dynamic.

Hopefully not; this is one of the things I am looking forward to in getting the RS3 (in saloon version)

i can't believe they finally get the RS exhaust sounding right then stop and tone it down! It's not like you can't spec it with the non-sport exhaust and keep the flaps closed if you wanted to.
