Evenin' everyone.

New member to the site. I've just picked up 6 month old RS3 ex demonstrator. Very pleased with it so far. Coming out of a RS4 B8, and before that the previous RS3.

And, FOO!

Welcome along.

How come you're going back to an RS3 from the RS4?

Hi Chunky.

Good question, RS4 is good, no doubt, but it's all about the power delivery. I feel the 4 needs to be worked harder, and therefore thought more about what you're doing. 3 is livelier, more urgent, and having shed weight, also more nimble. Finally (almost) I personally prefer the slightly smaller car. The smallish range of the 4 was irritating, it needed a bigger tank.

Fury muff. Me and the wife found it hard going from s3 (turbo) to s4 (nat asp) at first, then I really enjoyed the need to push the revs, the wife hated it.
