  |  2009 Audi S3 Sportback Scooped -
03-27-2008, 05:08 AM
 The Teutonic-loving chaps at “Audiblog” have snapped a barely camouflaged S3 Sportback lying in a fenced parking lot somewhere in Europe. Currently, the S3 badge is reserved exclusively for the 3-door version of the A3, but according to our information, Audi will introduce the 5-door S3 Sportback into the market in late 2008 – early 2009. Like its 3-door sibling, the S3 Sportback will be powered a 265 Hp 2.0-liter turbocharged unit matted to either a 6-speed manual or Audi’s dual-clutch S-Tronic transmission. And min you, the production version will get the same chromed exterior mirrors as the 3-door hatch.

Finally. I wonder what was taking Audi so long to offer the world a 5 door S3, looks very attractive as well |

Is it really an S3? Could simply be a facelifted S-Line... That said, if it is the new S3 Sportback then whoopdeedoo! What took them so long! |

hmm yh as above, does look like it could be the s line, but to be honest is there really enough difference to market this alongside its 5 door sister. |

 One problem I think is wrong with the 3-dr and 5-dr A3s is that the backs are well to high. | |
