RS3 in 2011/2012
The brakes seem interesting "Audi Design". I must admit I am liking the "Quilted diamond" design Buckets.
The black wheels with red rim finish is def a big leap imo. That's the first I have seen from a car manufacture. The pic after showing it in red with black optics looks great!

Money can't buy you love, but it can buy you a well sorted racecar
Black optics
After not having an RS product for a over 4 years, I kept my eye on this thinking that there's no way I'll be able to spec my requirements: Sportback with black roofrails and black optics.sonny wrote:The black wheels with red rim finish is def a big leap imo.

Looks like the only objections I can find at the moment are body coloured wing mirrors like the brochure shows (I'll settle for primer grey, but just not brushed aluminium) and RS Blue/Nogaro/Sprint Blue option (not exclusive price!). Fussy, moi?
I've almost convinced myself into my last hurrah (mid-life crisis) RS product.
Now, I better start downloading that 6 1/2 minute video which at my 222kbps broadband speed might just finish before the Geneva Motor Show opens in March!

RE: Black optics
Anyone placed an order yet? Have to say I am tempted. I love the RS6 but just feel like a chance and I don't need the space.
I had an order on the RS5 before it came out but couldn't justify the price.

RE: Black optics
Steve I would also be seriously tempted if I didn't get cool company cars
I think my ideal spec is £45k which when think of the decent mpg and tax and likely resale given it will be limited is not bad for a audi RS with potential for 400+ bhp and room for a dog

RE: Black optics
My spec just came out at £45k too (prob the same). I have a VW Scirocco as my company car and the RS6 is hardly used.
But when I do drive it, wow.
Are you not hammered with tax? Would u not be better taking 40p a mile?
Sell the RS4, buy an RS3 private, claim the mileage, avoid the tax, ask for a pay rise!!

I gotta fuel card, and do LOTS of business miles
My company car scheme is not your average, so the TTS only costs me £66pcm inc. insurance
RE: Re: RE: Black optics
They do a mini first drive in this months Evo - not a full test - did'nt look too good but need to see it in flesh I suppose
RE: Re: RE: Black optics
