So it's just the photos are not doing it justice (the arches, at least)? Did he say anything about an RS3 saloon?

Nope, but a colleague that went a few months back on the same viewing said it was the sportback only at that time iirc.

Amar, having seen it in the flesh, could you ask your boss if the arches are wider front and rear this time, or just front like last time?

Fortitude image I posted on page two is currently on the Audi website minus the background. The rear wings are absolutely unmistakably wider. However, several outlets including Autocar stating 24mm increased front track, but only 4mm increased rear track (which would be purely by going from 7.5 to 8 inch rims). Here's hoping.....

Just been into the dealer to ask about the timescale of the RS3, at the moment orders open on 10th March and I think first delivery is around 5th July.

I understand they're already taking deposits and notes of interest ahead of the actual orders going in.

I registered an interest early September with a £500 Deposit suppose to be 1st on the list @ Stafford, Did a similar thing at Tamworth with the RS5 but cancelled and got my deposit back as it still hadn't arrived 6 Months after Launch

What are we supposed to be looking at? The pic is an RS5?

Scroll up (if the page position is embedded in the link) - pic is an RS5, link on the page is to a £78k RS6 offer and the top banner bit says £46,300 OTR... which doesn't tie in with any current RS.

IMHO, I don't think the RS3 will be more expensive than the RSQ3...

Not sure? Could be the RS3 as you say - or just the heavily inflated price for the facelift Q3 RS? I hope its neither tbh!
