I know it’s older video but definitely gave me things to think about. Always enjoyed my brothers Audi , just never owned one. I agree with the size , I just returned a 21 Mazda 3 AWD Turbo hatch. This time I am not going to rush my decision especially if I am buying it outright. Definitely like the S3 & Golf R , even the GTI is on the list. So many decisions but I really like the S3

Getting the RS3 Hatch is like one of the few cars I'm considering over the Focus RS. That car is beautiful!

Focus RS's fischer price interior makes it a no-go once you've sat in an Audi S3, complete non starter once you've owned anything with a respectable interior. That's saying something for an otherwise amazing machine. It's interior is more worse than it's performance is amazing. Great job Ford. Smh.
@BStudd11822 жыл бұрын
There’s literally no comparison between an RS3 and Focus RS. Not in power, interior and of course price. There’s about a 25k-30k difference. The S3 vs RS3 is the better comparison.

Golf R has the option for a 6MT, the s3 only comes in auto. I would choose manual transmission any day of the week, so I prefer the Golf R

Generally I would say the same thing but the DSG transmission is so good that I would consider it

Nice review! If you could get into an S5 or S7 sportback I’d love your opinion on those. My hunch is they might be similarly sized to the Y with some similar features and performance.

Thanks for the review! I'm curious about what the yearly cost to maintain is, if you could provide any insight that would be great. Thanks!
@ryanwagner11133 жыл бұрын
It’s really not that expensive. The only things that is expensive is the major maintenances at 40k miles. But other than that I spend like less than 500 a year for oil changes and other filter changes

I test drove both an S3 and a Golf R, and ended up deciding on an S3. The car is amazing, and is actually much cheaper than an equivalent R, which is shocking to me. With slight modifications, the car gets much better! Also, the car you reviewed was missing the upgraded quilted seats, and those were a MUST HAVE for me!
@Gjeebs3 жыл бұрын
Yea the quilted seats are amazing
@Bones43x3 жыл бұрын
I actually much prefer the standard seats over the "upgraded" seats, because they're power. The quilted seats look awesome, but losing power functionality was a deal killer. I move my seat quite a bit depending on how tired I am after a days work or what kind of driving I'm doing. And yes, I actually drove one with the manual seats for a few days so I'm not just saying...I actually have experience with both. If you're a set-it-and-forget-it kind of person, that's great. With manual seats, there's often that in between setting that you just can't get with manual adjustments...too close, too far, too upright, etc.
@Thomas.R3 жыл бұрын
@@Bones43x For sure, it’s totally just a preference thing. I prefer the weight savings of the manual seats, and lower seating position (I’m 6’2”, so head room is a valuable commodity haha), and the quilted seats look amazing to me

I purchased mine last week. I came from Golf GTI MK7 (Stage II APR). It still is slightly slower on the highway 60+, however 0-45 the traction makes up and pulls me back without wheelspin. Overall the car is NOT the same as golf. It costs more because the cabin is 100% more quite. You do not feel like your driving 90MPH on highway. Feels more planted. I will say, golf is better value, all the toys for the same or less price. Questions folks?
