One thing that I do find odd. The TTS and RS have the classic quad / oval exhausts yet the S3 /RS3 doesn't. I think the RS3 would look good with the ovals IMO.

Are you impressed with the exhaust note?
haha really, do like ibis

Agree with you on that one must admit
Current - 2011 Sepang TTRS - Milltek Secondary cat deletion pipes - S-Tronic Bangs :-)

Gone by not forgotten - 2012 Ibis RS3 - Damn coolant issue.

Looks spot on.

Now if it were mine, I'd debadge it, remove the rear rings, black the front rings and hit that silver splitter with some satin black. Then bypass CAT+remap = perfect sleeper car. Job done.

Lovely looking car, made even more so by not spec'ing rear window tints.

Not much point debadging IMO, every other Audi has some sort of badge and most people take no notice, and you can run a plate now to identify pretty much any car on your phone for free

I will put black rings on the back again, still unsure on the fronts

I have toyed with the idea of getting the splitter done black

The twin pipes are actually the classic design for an Audi, the fake "l have a tiny penis / these give me an extra 50bhp" boy racer pipes look <beep> IMO

Although MTM do a conversion for the RS3 now.

Twin pipes both sides might be nice

I like the stock exhaust, no migraine when sitting in traffic

Parking over two spaces ain't gunna help not stop that, it'll make you more of a target. Why are you so special that you decide your car deserves two spaces? I love my car just as much as the next man but I'm not prickish enough to think it deserves two spaces... and it's a big car but I park it dead center EVERY TIME no matter how much of a rush I'm in and I've not had a carpark ding. So, if you don't want to get dinged, then don't go into a car park, if you do go into a carpark, then you're bound by all the same rules as other carpark users i.e. don't ding other cars and park with consideration.
Anyways, this crap has been argued before and this isn't the thread to do it in.

/EDIT I don't debadge to hind the model designation but it's still a sleeper at first glance e.g if it were in your rearview mirror of sitting in the middle lane. AFAIK people aren't tooling around punching every VRM into their piephone so they can have a race...

I don't think you can make such a wrong statement and then close the discussion

I do park perfectly and in the last 10 years me and the OH have had 9 dents from chav doors, if you double park there doors simply can not reach your car, I will say that I go it in the empty part of the car park not near the shops but we are sick to fook of it. Mat just be NE Kent thing but around here no one gives a fook about other peoples cars

Cost me over 3 grand and I am sick of it

Classic to me, only been driving 3 years so only know the oval pipes on the RS cars. I don't know If it means you have a tiny penis though. Its just odd the TTRS has it and the RS3 doesn't. I think it's the only RS car that doesnt.

Which part of my statement is wrong, the bit where you feel you can take up two carparking spaces when the spaces are CLEARLY marked by white (or coloured) outlines? There are ZERO reasons to use two carparking spaces, there are ONLY excuses and your excuse makes you wrong. The solution is not to take up two spaces, the solution is to not go into a carpark.

Start a dedicated thread, it'll end up a doosie...

I know for a fact that parking in two spaces attracts tw*ts because people think you're the tw*t using two spaces. I know people that would deliberately ding a car that was using two spaces. Anyway I love the Ibis white RS3 it looks the nuts.

my local sainsbury's is refurbing, and is including WIDER parking bays for this exact reason ... to avoid car park dings

also, twin ovals is the signature RS design. just because the RS 2 and RS 4 has twins on one side does make it the law

Really? That's excellent news Dave.... let's hope they roll it out across their estate (and the other Supermarkets follow suit)
Though I suspect the real reason is to give the yummy-mummys in their 4x4's more room to park badly.
