Right after looking at the reviews on the facelift I'm going
To get on the case and try and find the best deal out there, any ideas on who to use??

You tried the usual places like carwow?

Nice choice of car!

Just made my mind up tonight, was going for a BM
But read the reviews on the facelift and that swayed me away,plus in the winter I'd get pissed off with not being able to get the power down. One thing is for sure I will lower the car straight away and get some nice rims on it.
I think it will look awesome, I love it in the saloon and I'm a hatch back fan normally. I'll try car wow and see what comes up.
Can't wait for a new car, just had my t5 to use and I'm missing some power, even washing the car I miss.. yeh it's sad I know

I know what you mean, I quite enjoy the satisfaction of cleaning the car. I love the saloon too, think some of the modded S3 saloon are looking good, and maybe better than the RS3 but I think that's because I've not seen any RS3s lowered, spaced or with decent wheels yet.
As an alternative, the new RS5 is meant to drive well. And from people that went to Goodwood and saw it and heard it in ther flesh, I hear it looks and sounds much better in real life. Not sure if you've seen the 2 really good shots of it that have been doing the rounds on social media?
And yeah, quattro can't be beat in the winter!

Not the best pics. Forgot my camera.
What colour are you thinking?

I was completely underwhelmed by the loon RS3 and the RS5. Styling has gone to pot, no amount of peripheral fiddling will fix it:

Noggy, Noggy, Noggy, Oi, Oi, Oi!



How did it look? I do think some of the recent pictures do make it look a little more aggressive than I originally thought. I get the impression it's a bit more like the RS7 ran it is some of the other RS products. Although saying that, the RS7 keeps the standard A7 body, rather than wider panels.

I thought it looked superb thru my Noggy tinted glasses.

I reckon it'll look transformed on nicer wheels and perhaps a slight drop.

Can you get it in riviera blue??

I'm really not sure what colour I'm going for yet!!
Think i want the saloon over the sport back.. what's the thoughts on the 2?
I know for a fact the saloon can be made to look nice, there's a lot of nice pictures of s3's dropped with some nice alloys.
Anyway i like to fiddle about with my cars.

For me the saloon is much better looking. Loving the modded S3 saloons out there.

the pics above show grey calipers, does that mean theres an option for 'ramics?

Put up a poll and let us vote!

I like the red myself, but plenty of choice by the looks of it.
