Seems there's no quattro logo with black optic and ACC  :mellow:


As you say theres ACC(adaptive cruise control below the numberplate) on that car so hopefully there's gonna be a decent list of options to chose from.

I think it's going to have the same options of all the A3 8v range. Actually I'm driving a MTM S3 8V with ACC, something that I'd never live without now that I've discovered what it's able to do. But at the same time I really love the  quattro logo on the front grille, and it's a shame they won't offer the quattro logo with ACC rather then  Audi does for RS6 and RS7.

My greatest hope are Matrix LED headlight (actually have Led headlights on mine)

I've got ACC on my S5 as you say it's a great feature ,I presume it's the placement of the sensor under the numberplate that deletes the Quattro logo ,on all other models it's incorporated in the o/s front grill below the headlight,I'd rather have the ACC than the Quattro logo.

Nardo and that Catalunya Red will be exclusive (probably mid-price option), so don't think they'll be the only colours, That is definitely Daytona Grey, and the arctic test one looks like Sepang Blue. I know I don't want Alu pack as it makes the front splitter thing look horrendous, and they can absolutely keep the quattro badge even if I didn't go for ACC. Still needs to be a saloon though, but those videos and hearing the engine are certainly making me less concerned about the arches or slight lack of power. I'm sure APR will have a map out soon enough anyway.

When I was at my local testing RS6 I got guy to go on computer and look at all details and it said standard grey or red I'm sure for extra pennies you could have other colours

Id be surprised if nardo was the standard colour, normally it costs a bit to have it, as far as i knew it was going to be the usual standard colours offered up and the nardo and catalunya were extras added to that

In other news, I saw an A1 in Samoa today it just looks 'orange', no bronze or depth to it at all. Must have been the R8-tinted goggles, or the fact it was sunny that made it look good before. Back to Racing Mica then.

 

Now they just need to announce the saloon and I can get properly involved.

Some of the options will be less expensive going from standard RS kit (like 19s are free on a saloon S3 but ~£500 on a hatch S3), and the standard kit will include some of the options you've picked maybe. I did the same, and the S3 I made came to £45,050 otr. Without ceramics, performance exhaust or magnetic dampers.
