Very good-looking indeed. I can't wait to read the reports from car mags to see if it meets their approval... in the past they haven't been too kind about most of Audi's S cars bar the new S6 and S8.

The S3 is a stunning car. Audi did it again.

It is too bad we won't get this car here in the U.S. Maybe we'll get the 5-door version when and if Audi does one.

There is still nothing official about an A3 Sportback but there is a possibility one will be made for the US market.

Artist is right, the offset twin outlet single exhaust does look a little "Nancy" for a car at this level. Why not a more aggressive and macho twin pipe layout R32-style?

...that aside, this is still such a solidly good-looking motor car. To quote that over-used cliché: this car has "hewn-from-granite" image and presence.

i have seen many S3s, and i'm sure the yellow colour suits it the best. I like the rims, too.

I think the previous S3 rims were very similar to Seat Ibiza's Top Gun rims...

You can clearly see how different the engine is from the regular 2.0 TFSI even from this small photo. The intercooler for example is bigger and more efficient.
