Default Audi S3 Spyshots

More Spy Photos: Audi S3 Uncovered

First Photos of the finished car

Audi will launch the sports version of the A3 in autumn this year. It will be equipped with a 2.0 TFSi engine, which is said to deliver 260 HP.

The new S3 has all wheel drive and can be distinguished from the A3 by its different and sportier front end, large alloy wheels and double exhaust pipes.

The photos are showing a prototype without any disguise.

:huh: I wonder what kind of price tag it'll command... the high end (aka useful non-crappy-ass-all-corners-cut) A3 already STARTS at $34k...

If I had the money, that is the car I would get. It's the perfect size/power for me.

Will it have "real" Quattro, or the fake-ish Haldex version used in the base A3 and VW R32?

Nice but entirely too expensive.
