Many thanks for your answer, martinbo!

I have as well talked to one the experienced audi salesman near my office (Geneva). He told me that rumor has it that S3 SB STronic could be produced but this has not yet be confirmed even internally. He expects a confirmation no sooner than in a couple of months...

As I am really into buying a new car now (have now an A3 SB 2.0T 200hp Quattro manual since more than 1 year) and a STronic one if possible (have really been convinced by this technology through roadtest), I hesitate between:
- Buying Audi TTS STronic (which I will roadtest on Monday)
- Wait and see if Audi S3 SB STronic is produced...
- Wait and see what the TTRS is all about...

Lot of dreams now but I hope to realize at least one of them in close future!

I'm just about to order one, but I can't bring myself to choose color. Which color is this: (I think it looks stunning)



Which color do you think I should choose? Besides that, I'm getting the SB with Xenon lights (so I get the LED:s ), proline and numerous other things.

Welcome to GCZ mate, and congrats on your new purchase.

I reckon the metallic white/pearl white will go well with the car

I just love the white too, but I will be driving high-ways in Sweden most of the time (we constantly have shitty weather), so I'd have to clean it everyday : )

Silver metallic feels very boring, considering my last three cars have been silver metallic, but it IS a very forgiving color.

What do you guys think about the Bose sound system upgrade? Is it worth it?

It depends how much of an audiophile you are but it can produce quite a sound. But you can get the same quality for less money (after market stuff).

As for the color the dolphin grey (now it is meteorgrau) is quite forgiving too. Had a 80 in that color so I know. Or Arubablau - it looks nice too

Also white with opensky looks quite sexy too

Can't choose S-line with e-power, but I did choose just about everything else (€5000 worth of )
