In individual mode set engine/gearbox to auto, steering and quattro to whatever you like and engine sound to dynamic. Put it in drive instead of sport, select manual and it sounds fantastic lower in the rev range.

I love looking at the Audi S3/RS3 reviews (Shame they are all the sedan body, not the hatch, bigger fan of the hatch-shape imo) and I think you are the first reviewer that hasn't whined about understeer and the front feeling heavy in the corners. Big props to you for knowing how to drive the car *properly*.

You have to tell everyone how you threw that sideways, Sid. Spectacular! For the life of me i can't do it, and end up 'correcting' what quickly feels like a bad idea to begin with. The car loves to stick to the road. Haven't seen anyone else make it drift like that.
