Default Very recent US model Audi S3 review

Sure many of you interested in the S3 have seen videos and read reviews of the car. The EURO version mostly driven on European roads. Found some reviews from Australia and South Africa as well. As the S3 starts to land on our shores, I'm finally finding US model reviews to read and reassure me that I made an awesome choice!

Here's a super recent one. Google and you'll find a few more.

After owning the Audi S3 for I year I can comfortably say that I wouldn't think of buying any other car!

The car is fun to drive, thrillingly fast & responsive, its like an orchestra everything works harmonically to deliver an unforgettable experience.

Well everyone got his own preferences, I had a 2001 Camaro SS with a manual transmission, I loved it but living in a small Island & small roads with good amount of traffic manual wasn't really practical.

Honestly after trying the dual clutch S-tronic its hard to go back to manual, in my persinal opinion its better than manual, not the same experience for some but definitely faster.

That is more like a preview than a review.

Facelift A3/S3 won't arrive in Europe till June of this year

and in US till 2017.
