We never get the cool stuff in the states. I want the hatch!

I like the hatch body also, but if you really need a hatchback, just get a Golf R, put some go-fast stuff on it and have similar performance, IMO 😬

What exactly does this mean, "extrawide 255/30s are available for the front wheels?"

RS3s have always had the option of a wider front track, I believe. My question is, are they putting a 255/30 on an 8" rim or does the RS3 get 8.5"? I'd be curious to see how a 255/30 looks/handles on the factory 19x8 rim.

Am I the only person in the world who would prefer a sedan over the hatch? Hatches reminds me of beaches, roof-racks, and surfboards. Not performance driving.

Good lord that's a mighty downgrade from the A3 Clubsport Concept 525 Horses.

or perhaps,

these words are spoken too soon and Audi despite shafting the US on the downgrades made to the A3/S3 will actually give us the A3 Clubsport Concept in RS3 sedan form with none of the concept features removed. Sort of like how Mercedes did the CLA250 AMG 45.

Nope, I had an 07 A3, like the sedan way better. Way better.
