2016 Audi S3 Prestige: Start Up, Exhaust, Test Drive and Review

Help us reach 100,000 SUBSCRIBERS! / @brosfourrspeed
Today I get to test drive the 2016 Audi S3 Prestige!
This is a fun to drive sports sedan packing a 2.0L Turbo 4 cylinder.
292 HP with 280 lb-ft of torque makes this car accelerate very quickly! It takes the turns with ease and has plenty of traction and control for any road.

I have a 2016 s3 with 95,000 miles. Best car I've ever owned. Fast, comfortable, handles like a more expensive sports car. I would highly recommend it.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah they are great!

[@mitchellcummings758]

do you still have it? how does It hold up at higher mileage? any reliability issues?

[@HaninBaaziz]

I want to buy a used one now for about 18k and 50k milage Do u recommend it? It's a 2016 model s3

[@JarOfMoMack]

Agreed. I have a 2016, 72k miles - recently did a stage 1 APR tune - car is wicked fast

[@HaninBaaziz]

NVM the car was beated as hell

[@andyandlizhoward5176]

Just bought one in excellent condition for much less than $40k, and I couldn't be happier!

I own a 2017 s3 and it is such a good hatchback

[@sonictonic_]

I love Audi's aesthetic. And I enjoyed this video. :)

[@ohheyitskevinc]

I’ve had my 2016 S3 from new (so 7 years almost) and it’s a great car. Haven’t tuned it either although I have thought about it. Zero problems too. Only thing I have changed is: threw on folding mirrors, euro rear tail lights with amber dynamic signals, some vag com mods. Oh and replaced the stock P5 tires with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. They last forever where the P5s just fall apart in both hot and cold weather. It’s sporty, but great on long drives too (I did NC to CO and back once). Congrats on finding one this cheap too. My dealer recently offered me more than I paid for mine.. 😂

[@khabra90]

2017 onwards has the virtual cockpit and updated exterior like lights

I hate the digital display

[@T_K_W]

Really want the Giulia Quadrifoglio.. hopefully once I've paid off my Nismo 👌🏻

[@troymuni6120]

No awd in the Quad and many people believe the car they used for their rIng time didn't have the stock tune.

[@lucbegin7334]

Totally agree! Good review.

[@alexbaez_2364]

Dsg farts sound so good😂

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

haha yeah this makes some good noises! Love the S3

[@Huyistic]

Are those seats an upgrade option?

[@jackfaight1000]

No, they’re standard

[@especiallysi5643]

DO YOU MISS THE Z cars? if so what do you miss about them

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Especially Si Not really. I like the GTR a lot better! I'd love to buy another Nismo one day and twin turbo it tho.

[@WillEvo22]

Can you do a 2014 TTS???

Its a good sign when he cant stay off the skinny pedal.

Audi S3 is a great car!

[@splatmacpuffin]

Great car right up to the day the warranty expires......

[@discy12345]

Matt Mac Mullin why?

[@splatmacpuffin]

discy12345 Then they start to break down, rapidly, from all the cheap plastic parts, things like water pumps, hoses, turbos, etc.

[@troymuni6120]

Water pumps are the most common thing to break in any car. You were right above tho, never buy any German car out of warranty. And even CPO cars from some shady Audi dealers have been in accidents, so you have to be careful. I wouldn't even consider a place like this one in the video. If the car ended up there and not an actual dealership, there's a reason for it.

[@killer_vette351]

@@splatmacpuffin you’re wrong. My warranty been ended and I have zero issues. Im making around 400whp and still have zero issues.

[@splatmacpuffin]

@@killer_vette351 your one of the lucky ones, the cooling systems are built from cheap plastic, bubble gum and dreams. Complete garbage. First water pump failed at 58,000 Kms. They drive nice and handle well and the engine is silky smooth but high maintenance costs and definitely unreliable once they get about 4 years old.

[@ademhasanovic7141]

Doesn't this have the same engine and trans as the Golf R?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Adem Hasanovic I believe so. Technically they are the same car

[@InfoumusMOBB]

Adem Hasanovic yes exactly why the S3 is the worst sport car for the money. Lol for 50k+ its no bargain for 300hp. Interior is nice but performance wise it's not worth it.

[@ademhasanovic7141]

InfoumusMOBB You're right lol. They're nice and all, but I wouldn't pay significantly more than 30k for a used one. Rather get a newer v6 or even a v8 sports car.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

InfoumusMOBB Think about tuning. APR Stage 2 tune and bolt ons gets it to almost 400wtq.

[@jetx2599]

Bros FOURR Speed could you recommend me what bolt ons to get for this car?

[@lukinius45]

Honestly, Im not sure how this is a bargain sports sedan. A passat CC can be a bargain sports sedan.

[@troymuni6120]

Find another car with these same specs and then compare the price. There's nothing close, I've been looking. Even Golf R's are hard to find CPO.

[@bslothed3211]

Lol the passat is slow 6 sec 0-100

[@IReahpZz]

Genesis g70? Kia stinger gt?

[@IReahpZz]

I mean they've been shown tune only 430 whp. Much faster than the s3

[@jetx2599]

But they are also a lot bigger and heavier. This is more sporty and nimble. The Kia is a better straight line brawler

[@effectgoods5147]

@@IReahpZz that's a 3.3t, compare it to the S4

These are single turbo

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yup. My wife and I own one now. Fun cars!

[@freakincrazy6932]

Golf r is a better car with same chassis, engine and trans. Plus offers manual for those who want.

[@discy12345]

freakincrazy6932 less luxuryus options, especially the seats, audio and virtual cockpit screen. I'd go seat leon if you want to save money. Bigger and basically the same as well.

[@troymuni6120]

seat leon?

How is Golf R better? The manual is slower than the DSG

They are 5 cylinder

You’re way too young to drive this car. You’re sacrificing your financial future for short term pleasure. Set your life up first, then buy expensive liabilities 😞

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

huh? This is an old vid. But I later bought a Nissan GTR. Great investment. I bought it for $70k 4 years ago. Currently its worth about $90k. Also bought and sold a brand new Supra while owing the GTR. Made money on that car when I sold it. Just need to do things the right way. My cars are my business. They make me money and I have a lot of fun. Just bought a house too while I wait to buy the new 2023 Nissan Z. And am planning to by a new S3 soon. ;)
