How much is this car?

[@bradleyb-radmangadi4832]

So this car has 8 speed?? Huh

[@SINERGYV1]

I think it has excellent gearing...hence why its so quick to 100

[@ssully1069]

Mercedes have absolutely mastered the interiors on their cars! The furniture, lights and screens are just fuego! Those quick shifts reminded me of the PDK Porsche GT3 gearbox. Seems like a great car, although I think the RS3 has got more character. Great review bro, looking forward to more👌

[@Dave_dave69]

They look nice, but they’re plasticky and cheaply made. You won’t find that in an Audi

Engine over design and interior any day for me. A 4cyl cannot compete with a 5cyl sound wise.

[@peterbennett6022]

If Gucci interiors are your thing.. yeah take form over function 👍

[@steveprice766]

New rs3 interior is superior, integrated sat nav/screen. Its a thing of absolute beauty. Rs3 all day long in my humble opinion.

My dream car, cant believe your lucky enough to even drive it !

[@BC2FITTY]

I honestly would go a45s just cause I love the hatch look with all that torque , but I like the rs3 too

[@junaidzafarali]

I bought my rs3 purely for the sound and exterior. But I have to admit, no one can beat Mercedes when it comes to interior. The one merc I want is the 6.2l c63, now that’s a nice sounding car

[@vrsimha]

If Mercedes comes out with a 5 cylinder it will be a game changer. 4 cylinder , 420hp, 500Nm and the new C63S is 475hp with the same M139 engine. Add an additional cylinder and I am sure it would be a different league.

[@RS3loon]

RS3 will forever be the GOAT of hot hatches. Can’t beat that 5cyl.

[@tracktimevideos5164]

Lol, no

[@umarnawaz6350]

RS3 will always sound the best

[@tracktimevideos5164]

@@umarnawaz6350 will almost agree with you on that but a mk2 Focus RS sounds just as good and doesn't fart between gearchanges.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 it sounds the best but it’s not where near the best hot hatch.

[@frankwizard7496]

6 pot forever

[@OG_DSM]

105hp per half litre. Wow. That's really impressive.

[@drkizz86]

The car looks great but sounds like a leafblower in comparison to the RS3

[@ad_2211]

FL RS3 driver here, you are never going to get that addictive deep burble/epic exhaust note from a 4 pot although no doubt that interior looks a generation ahead of the RS3 but Audis have never been known for bling extravagant interiors.

[@oleg274]

@@ad_2211 I wouldn’t call this interior extravagant. For me it just trying to scream “look I am expensive” while having cheap quality materials all over the places. It looks showy, trying to draw attention. Audi/Porsche interiors are more minimalistic and have better quality, I personally like that more

[@craig3949]

RS3 sounds like a fart can and gets worse each year. Fan boys have to let go. 🤣 Golf R32 sounds better than both. Am I gonna hold onto that forever? 😂

I really like this car! interior looks great, sound is great, styling and sporty look..WIN. On the goals list for sure, yet to drive. First my next car is gonna be the VW Golf R Mk8. Hamza have you done a review on it yet? Big ups man!

[@iantouzel638]

im having fun just to see you smile after your floor that gaz pedal ! damn that sound is nice and the ratio of the gear box seems spot on. thanks for that road test

[@craigmccreath3182]

Honestly I think its a great car. But is so expensive for what it is. Like a used rs3 for like 20k less is a no brainer or m140i for 30k less IMO

[@SenszR]

A new RS3 is gonna cost you same money though, I think they are all stupidly expensive for hatchbacks

[@weg5856]

Yeah but the 45s depreciation is insanely bad.

[@em8969]

Haven’t finished the video yet but honestly.. the A45 is sexiest in its class on the looks department

I really like the AMG versions of the A-Class, especially the A35 sedan. I don't know if the AMG A35 sedan exists in the UK, but i've always liked sporty compact cars, so naturally I liked it. I think if I got an A-Class, i'd probably get the A35, the A45 S is a bit overkill for me, haha. Nice car though!

We got facelift rs3. Before particulate filter stuff. I genuinely believe e we got one of best soundin rs3. Apart from pre face they say sounds even more epic. New rs3 gonna have 430 ish engine hp. Roughly 380 wheel. Not bad. I'm audicentric any way. I do like the 45 amg pushing 421 . Doesn't sound anywhere near as good as rs3. But dont get me wrong. An awsome hatch

[@ashtonemini]

No denying the performance and interior is spot on - the rear of the car loses me, and the vacuum cleaner engine is a shame. I will take a 5 pot RS3 every day

[@kamsa1243]

Pre OPF for sure, wait until the one comes out post regulations.

This is the only other hatch I'd trade up my M140i for. I love the exterior styling, the performance and handling is incredible, I just don't like the chinzy interior much. Those chrome air vents are really not my thing. Edit to add, love your presenting style, and the way you edit the uploads, really good mate.
