Tunnel
Or in a tunnel with the windows down! :-D
There is a mile long tunnel about an hour away from my house that I drive through sometimes when I drive up to Cincinnati. I am ALREADY looking forward to taking it through that tunnel several times. LOL

Looks like I will be not purchasing the RS3 and getting my refundable deposit back. Beautiful car. main reason to upgrade of S3 is exhaust. So if you can't hear the exhaust when you are sitting in the car, not much point to make the jump. A disappointing end to months of anticipation.

When I startup my 2015 A3 Quattro in this frigid cold -4 - 13 degree (F) temperature the exhaust is very loud, I feel like I'm driving an Audi R8.

u can order the sports exhaust as a standalone option in canada since they were smart enough not to bundle it with anything else. canadians actually got the best deal in the world with the RS3 i think. but i didn't like the black tips since it blended in with the black diffuser that came with the black optics package i got. so i went with the normal exhaust and the silver tips contrasts nicely with the diffuser.
i'm in the minority here when i say the car's loud enough with the normal exhaust on sport mode. seems like the sports exhaust isn't that much louder than the normal one under full throttle.

I like the contrast as well which is why I did NOT order the black optics since I did get the sports exhaust and it looks good that way as well.
Personally I absolutely love the sports exhaust, in Sports Mode, and while the up-shifts are incredibly intoxicating I may love the downshifts even more! Either way it ALWAYS puts a HUGE Smile on my face! But as always, your mileage may vary.
