      Simon It does. In most states, there are laws that say the trucks can be lifted slightly or not at all. However this is not heavily enforced. Unfortunately for Audi they cannot sell a car with what is deemed to be unsafe, even though we know nobody would care and it wouldn’t be really dangerous..

    Actually the RS3 comes with the option to remove the max speed limitation, it will then go 174mph (280km/h). Since many winter tires in Germany are limited to 150mph (240km/h) the alarm makes sense (well, at least in the only country of the world where you can actually drive the RS3 that fast on the highway...)

      Anonymous. It's unfortunate, but it comes down to how stupid consumers are in any particular country. For example, Australia is AMG's #2 foreign market, not because of sales, but profit margin. They would have to sell 5 vehicle in the US to every one sale in Australia just to MATCH profit margin. 6 to beat it. We're dumb arses here. e.g. we pay double for music from iTunes that is downloaded from the same US server!! Not 'cause we're richer, we're just stupid!

I spent $2700 on a APR Stage 2 tune and downpipe and I now have 400hp and 396 Lbs torque, I do 0-60 in 3.70 seconds. So did I score? Maybe not, the RS3 will always be a winner.

      We don't really get any wagons here because wagons just don't sell in America. People think they look too ugly (which I agree with to an extent), it's also the reason why hatchbacks for the most part (especially with European cars) are uncommon here.

    Stop complaining about manual seats. Manual seats don't need motors below them, motors that take up space. Motors not taking up space means you can sit lower in the car. Low in the car is best. Also, power seats are heavy and add unnecessary weight. Last point, how often do you really move your seat? I'm the only person that drives my car so the first 5 minutes of owning my car I used the power seats and haven't truly touched them since. It's a pointless feature imo. My E46 M3 had manual seats and I loved them.

      Yup. Got an RS3 with the manual seats (there was an electric seat option) and you set the seat once the first time you ever get in it and that's it. I have to move the seat MAYBE once every month or two if I have passengers in the back.

      No one ever even seemed to complained that when you get expensive Recaro seats in the current Mustang, that you lose the cooling seats and only have heated. People will always point out the small stuff. It's just added weight if it's really not needed.

    A 400 hp/ 360+ lb ft of torque SUBCOMPACT with all wheel drive and a 3500 lb curb weight for LESS than 100k, and Doug gives it an acceleration score of 8 out of 10, and a handling score of 6 out of 10. Moronic, to say the least. The RS3 is THE best subcompact sports sedan on the market today, bar none...

    This car should have received a 10 in value. There is no other car on the road that can get you 0-60 in 3.5 seconds for only $55,000.

    Love the RS3. This video reminded me how much my GTI shares with Audi. Similar steering wheel, same sun roof, infotainment options, some of the interior design cues. Wish it shared that inline 5 though 🤤
