It's not dealer to dealer. Loyalty is put out by AoA. I only have the programs for the eastern region so unless Audi is offering it somewhere else in the US, there is no loyalty.

They gave me 2k for my orthodontists great work and were to shy to say so and said Audi Loyalty. Regardless to how you chalk it up I got 2k off MSRP.

As of last Tuesday , all they offered were A4 mats . I would assume eventually RS branded items will be offered for substantially more money.

I do not believe that these cars are rare or limited in production, they are simply new and in current demand. Audi has not indicated a limited production for the RS3. That being said, I picked mine up last week (2018) and was given free AudiCare without any negotiation. I was offered the loyalty discount and was offered dealer pricing on dealer installed options and aftermarket extras. There was no dealer markup. You have nothing to lose by negotiating.
you shouldn't expect to negotiate extras in cars like this. They are rare and very limited in production. Meaning you are lucky to get one much less get freebies. I totally understand the urge to try and push free stuff onto your car, but that sort of thing belongs with the more generic versions, because they struggle to sell as many of those as possible. The RS3 is not a car that they will have a hard time selling all of. I know that just about everyone set to be produced for the next year or so is likely spoken for.
getting one without a dealer mark up is a huge accomplishment in its own right. The RS cars and the R8 are cars dealerships earn.
You can maybe negotiate a better service warranty, or some dealer installed options like some floor mats. But, getting any discount outside of MSRP for any RS is going to be very very difficult to do, because dealerships are not concerned with moving each and every one
