and came back with this…

2016 s3
tech package
led
b&o

so far i love the car, plan on lowering it, stage 2 tune and keeping it as a fun daily driver. i really wanted an r35 but couldnt justify that much money just sitting 99% of the time

5

Nice!

6

Is that sepang blue correct?

7

correct, I LOVE this color, honestly its part of the reason i bought the car :slight_smile:

a couple mods are coming soon, i want to wait until 5000 miles to tune it though just incase

8

i love these…
BUT i am curious…why not pocket some cash and just get the Golf R?

9

this exactly…was in the market and dead set on golf R or S3 and the Golf R has way more useable space in it too. Got a used 335 anyways after all that. That blue tho makes up for a lot.

10

Nice pick up. Hope you keep it longer than 6 months. :stuck_out_tongue: Enjoy!

11

Style wise I’d pick the S3 over the R every single time. Hatchbacks just don’t do it for me and sales figures say that applies to most people in the US. Hatches are more practical but so are minivans.

And with that ill never own a hatch again…ruined for life.

14

Americans hate wagons, but god forbid you raise said wagon up and call it an SUV, now it’s the coolest thing ever.

nice S3, and love the color.

15

the thought crossed my mind, but i paid the same amount for this as a loaded golf (close to 17%off, and golf r are hard to find deals on)

i like the s3 looks but still respect the golf R

16

Nice p/u. Get a JB1 for it rather than a flash IMO. I’ve had canned tunes on my last 4 cars and the JB1 is by far the smoothest and easiest to adjust.

17

This ^^

i have a jb1 and a downpipe in my mk7 Gti and it fucking rips. Similar gains as flashes, half the price of a flash. Someday they will offer the full jb4 setup like they have for bmw’s. Install took 30 min and can be removed in the same amount of time. No worries about flash counter for warranty purposes.

solid pickup btw

18

Great deal. I love the look of the S3, just wasnt enough truck space. Still cant get over that color.

19

Did you get this brand new for 17% off?

20

Yes, after everything was all said and done it was right around 17% off
