2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
Bit more than just a Golf. It will probably annialate the RS 3 in every way except noise. Badge snobbery and brand loyalty aside, an awesome motor on the face of it.

Yes it's stupidly expensive and it could look better but starting to want one again after watching this.

Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
Saw that the other day and it's the only review I've seen so far where they get the point of the car, and don't slate it for its poor on track performance.
While it's likely I will do 1 or 2 track sessions with the car, it is far from the point of purchasing it. It's a practical on road machine that gets you point to point briskly and with a smile on your face!

Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
It does sound very tasty in that video and makes it quite tempting. But still no saloon version and I still can't get over how it is not butch looking enough.
Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
I quite like the look of that apart from the wheels, it could look a little fatter! But on the whole I don't mind it, does sound great! Nardo looks good on it
Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
Looks wise is all good for me. Just bit too steep but as always if you can stay away from the options lists then it seems very tempting.
Have to disagree about the R420 just being another golf. Have you seen the pics!!? That doesnt looks like another golf to me.
Either way I'm sure who ever has put there deposit down for an RS3 will love it. Just he looooong wait to put up with

Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
The Golf R400 are concepts, I'm pretty sure the production R420 will be somewhat more subdued. I realise it'll be a great car, but it still has golf in the name (unlike the RS3 vs A3 scenario), and it's just not a pairing I can get into!

Re: 2015 RS3 - now with confirmed pictures
Funny, Audi and RS3 are not a pairing I can get on with having owned the last one and seen the latest offering. I'd take an RS4 for similar money.
