Audi RS3 Opinions

Kicking around the idea of going rogue. Kind of taken a fancy to the new RS3 sedan. Kind of expensive for the performance, but then again not really.

Anyone have real world experience?

And Yes, I am well aware of all the cars at that price point.

Awesome car that’s quick for what it is and really nice looking. They are tons of miss and just bolt ons and a tune they are quick.

They sound like crap compared to a 6.2 or 392, so what’s the point? That’s half the fun.

Just get an electric..

Since I'm not at all familiar with the Audi product I did a very small amount of internet research just for my own curiosity. I would say it would be a nice performance sedan as an ADDITION to your 392 but I don't think it would make a good/fun REPLACEMENT of the Mopar.

It is pretty fast but I know me, I will be in the 60s once I get options. So we are talking "ZL1 Money" sort of.

I guess my point was I am not looking for the fastest car just something different and that caught my eye.

I like it and would say it’s a nice alternative if you’ve gotten Camaro and Challengers out of your system.

Your Camaro journey was cut short. I’d probably go there first if I were in your position
