![]() Here is where we started...
http://www.kcsr.org/showthread.php?t=165906 I decided to keep it under 50k like the thread stated. It's a new 2016 S3 with Tech Package, Black Optics, Bang & Olufsen and Factory Resonator Delete. I am really happy with it! I was trying to work with them on a 2017 but everyone locally wouldn't come off sticker at all. The dealership I went with already had multiple 2017 S3 and S4's spoken for and they are not arriving at US dealers until February-March. I was really happy with the price when compared to the local Denver market it was a great deal. I plan to do some minor performance upgrades and at least winter tires with possibly winter wheels in the next few months. Anyways on to the photos...

![]() Thanks guys. It further impresses me the more I drive it. It eats corners for breakfast with that magnetic ride.
Its crazy how the TTS is the exact same car as the S3 minus 2 doors and it starts 10k more. I didn't see any TTS under 60k at the dealers I visited.

![]() awesome car, i think they have a look that will prove to be typical audi - damn near timeless. prolly would not have gone with black, especially in denver, but that's me. any interior pics?

![]() Here are some interior shots just messing around. I really like how the Bang & Olufsen speakers get the long LED accents. I enjoy the clean simple modern look of the interior.
I also already have an intake on it and it sounds fantastic. It peaks torque at 1800rpm so it doesn't take much to really hear the turbo. ![]() ![]()

![]() Nice ride!
I think Audi's come with a basic 4yr or 50k mile warranty. Here is a neat review: http://autoweek.com/article/car-revi...xpensive-rings

Windows are getting tinted next weekend. Still pondering winter tire options. Last thing will probably just a AWE catback in the spring.

![]() Congrats! Looks like an awesome car.
I really like Audi's (almost went with S4 instead of my Q50S), but there's just 1 thing I cannot stand about their interiors.

Interesting... I didn't know they had those juice box plug ins for Audi vehicles. Are people using those more than APR/GIAC now days to try to avoid dealers detecting the car has been tuned? |

With the DSG, a hefty 93-100 octane tune, TCU tune, and exhaust work, I've seen true strip times (via YouTube) in the 11.99-12.3 range at 110-114mph. Pretty dang impressive for a 4 banger turbo, especially considering what they run stock (13.4@102mph). |

How's the drivability? From the reviews of this car and the Golf R, I have "heard" that off boost, the car can be a bit laggy and can get caught in power dead zones, largely because of the bigger turbo. At full throttle, all is well though. I really considered the S3 when looking at cars earlier this year. I love the size and the looks. I too will be going with a JB1 at some point with my M235. Right now the power is fine. I wish I had a local strip to test at. My Torque App is showing 1/4 mile times in the 12.9-13.1@108-109mph range with my M235 6MT (probably not real accurate, I know). That's still a long way off from those 11s you might see with that DSG and bolt-ons. LOL.
