    I just bought a 2016 S3 with 9,600 miles on it. I've had it for a little over a month and I have a smile on my face every time I drive it. I would highly recommend it if you can find one for a decent price with low mileage. I had to travel up to New Hampshire from Virginia to get mine.

    There’s just two of us and a dog. Dog goes in Subaru to beach and mountains. Wifey is 5’2” and I barely make 5’7”. The RS4 will fit just fine.

    I'm worried about replacement costs if my magnetic dampers go out, but I also just don't drive enough to really put wear on the thing. The optional upgraded leather interior was definitely worth it over the base A3.

    Haven't flashed the ecu yet either. Will think about that once the warranty is up, TD1 flags during service checks are too risky.

    I do but the amount of shit I'm starting to haul has grown. The "Rabbit edition" would rock but I need space.

    I think he has a tuned MK7 Golf already. But yeah GTI is the best bargain sporty car around.

    Yeah but prices are creeping up. When you get an optioned Autobahn it's close enough in pricing that the R starts looking better and better.

    Then you just get an S3 at that point

    But that's a sedan with horrible back seats.

    Since this car is so hot, aren’t there some gray market imports of them?

    My Audi wagon was my favorite car to drive. I would get another, but I would probably lease it since they fall apart at 75k miles.

    25 year rule still applies on imports. That is why there was a DIY RS4 Avant on Bring A Trailer a few weeks ago.

    What? :confused:
    My father's 2003 A4 B6 1.9Tdi Quattro S-line Avant is close to 400K kms. Routine maintenance only.

    Imagine your wagon with great suspension, monster wheels and brakes and almost triple the HP. That's the RS4 version. :D

    You left off the $1500 tab each time you take it into the Audi Dealer for service after any initial services that are included with the purchase. Oh, don't forget about the month long wait for any special parts for that rare animal.
