HUGE if true. A lighter, more compact RS3.
Paki bros, we won
The R32 successor we deserve…
>>28592997>A lighter, more compact RS3.Same platform and same drivetrain. It'd end up weighing the same. It might end up slightly heavier if they don't widen the track as much as the RS3 since it'd need to be beefier up front to keep the engine steady.
>>28593006The bradford 3
>lets just cannibalize our own market(x) doubt
>>28593081Do you not know how badge engineering works? 99% of people care more about the badge than anything.
>>28593081I mean, they put the Audi 5pot in a Cupra cuckover…
>>28593041>It might end up slightly heavier if they don't widen the track as much as the RS3 since it'd need to be beefier up front to keep the engine steady.You have no tools
>>28593081don’t underestimate this >>28593108The Golf has a much bigger fanbase than the RS3. Also looks less like gamer junk which is a massive plus
>>28593119they only built 7000 of those literally because Audi wouldn't give them any more engines
>>28593125good. they don’t deserve it. the golf does though
>>28593132now we just need the fucker in the next run of GLIs. don't want another hatch and would much rather a detuned 2.5 that can be flashed for less money
>>28593081It's only so they don't have to go around designing new engines for the last couple of years that they're still going to be ICE, since they're hell-bent on turning their entire lineup into EVs (Audi and Porsche have already turned around on their EV promises).
>>28593081This. The only way this happens is if Audi also kills the RS3.
>>28593006? Jeet mobiles are exclusively jap cars, especially the goyota gayrolla and gaymry.
>>28593192>PorscheAren't they literally going to be building tanks or something?
>>28593121You're a tool
>>28592997will it have the same drift mode? either way I'll prolly settle for the RS3 because I like sedans, just get rid of the rear seats and get a lighter exhaust and call it a day. GR Corolla is tempting too if it comes to europe but I want smth that can go 280+ either stock or with a tune
>>28593263Just import a GR Corolla, they make 300 hp stock, like the facelifted Yaris GR
>>28592997>still no 3dr hatchback manual with analog buttonskeep this trash
>>28592997God I hope it's true (and comes to the US). Hate that US doesn't get the hatch RS3, this would be a good alternative.
>>28592997lol that will NOT happen in a million years esp with Audi being so empty in the Linux and already forced to share in house tech with Bentley Porsche and VW. The 5 and Quattro is literally all they have left
>>28593300but the 3cyl struggles to go over 250kph even with mods
>>28593751Are you me, but not in Canada? I want the rs3 but only hatch. I don’t feel like buying two cars to merge into one so hopefully this really happens in NA.Now if they can fix the bolt on iPad with something integrated and use actual buttons for climate and real buttons on the wheel I’ll buy two of these.
