Re: Why no 3Dr
i suspect its so it does not step on the toes of the TT, i assume that's the same reason why its duel clutch only, the RS4 is like wise going to be 5 dr and avant only (i suspect so it wont affect RS5 sales)
it could possibly be so to keep the complexity to a minimum, they are pulled of production line and have a lot of production done to them at a different factory
personally i am glad its 5 door and duel clutch as that's what i want
RS's should be avants anyway

2Dr Coupe
3Dr Hatch
4Dr Saloon
5Dr Estate
so why have 5dr hatch's when 5dr estates look so much better just my opinion

I think the A3 Sportback is pretty close to the same shape as an Avant, just scaled to the length of the car.
Personally I don't think RS models look good as anything but an Avant. Full Stop.
