The only thing I don't like about this car is the black casings for the headlights, they look like cheap headlights you buy off eBay, other than that this car is simply awesome.
I don't think turbo lag will be a problem with this car, Audi does know how to build engines, and I am sure they made sure there was not much lag if any. | | | | | Global Moderator

I have to say that both the front bumper and those "black"-lights make the car look hotter! I looooove it. | | | | | Devotee

martinbo comes in two days late on the big scoop. But hey, who cares these days anyhow? Nonetheless, just my two cents on this:
a. The most desirable hatchback in the world? Yup, I think so...
b. Max torque of 350 Nm at 2500 rpm = minimal turbo lag / you'd never notice it when pressing on.
c. Sportback version is a must-have inclusion in the line-up
d. Audi rules this segment (no other hatch comes close to being this complete: luxury, style, ability, credibility, practicality and so on) and just gave sister stable VW's R32 a carrot, even if the sticker price does come out a fair deal higher.
I love this car and would give a kidney to run an S3 Sportback as my daily driver. The fact that it has a turbocharged engine is a huge bonus. | | | | | Advocate
