Judas :(

Kidding dude, looks nice, how different does it feel performance wise and handling wise to the EK9, or mine (Joannes one you sat in from Devon ) :p?
 
I had an S3 before my EK9 and was probably the worst car iv ever owned, only had it 6months.
 
I just fancied a changed, wanted something more comfitable, and bit more modern inside.

Im loving it at the moment, very nice to drive, doesnt handle aswell as EK9 but i havent pushhed it as it has very cheap tyres on!

but is a very different car to drive compared to a honda! not use to it yet!

Blinx, it is 1.8 Turbo, 4 Wheel Drive, 225BHP

Probably weighs the same as a house though :p

Still a nice car mate! I love the new versions!
 
S3's look the part, but sadly the driving is a let down IMO

Quickish in a straight-line as stock, but no swifter than a DC2 for sure...

They lack feel & feedback through the front wheels though, so even driving them quickly is a strangely uninspiring experience...

The best thing is to get a REVO remap, which boosts power to 265BHP...I guess that could make the straights a bit more fun to compensate for the twisties:nice:

Agreed 110%, they are built for motorways.

I went from japanese to german, what was i thinking off............ NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
you`ll be back ,,

nice S3 though

i used to be a serious vw nut now i am a honda convert!!
 
Nice Audi, my teacher has one so clean with the same color but with others rims well both looks nice
 
My brother has one of these with a few mods on it... has the re-map and also some suspension mods etc goes really, really well! but! in my opinion it's a bit of a tank lol
 
Love the look of the S3's - Mate of mine has one in yellow and looks **** hot.

Were they not all 4wd but with the Haldex set up - Only putting power to the rear wheels if the front starts to slip. I think thats how it works on them anyway.
 
I really like the look of the S3, and it looks as though its a more comfy car than the ek.

it's funny really, us asians think that euro cars are superior while you europeans think the other way around lol
