In reaction to news that
Audi put up an
online petition to bring the TT RS to the U.S., a number of commenters opined that they'd rather have the S3. Well, you're no closer to getting it, but you can see its even hotter brother, the RS3, in spy shots taken in Austria.
Almost all of the work seems to have taken place up front, where the hottest Audi hatch gets new headlights and gaping intakes. Even though there's an S3 badge on the front and standard exhaust outlets in back (not the oval units reserved for Audi's RS models), this isn't your standard S model. The shooter claims the redline on the mule is 6,500 rpm, where as the normal S3's redline is 6,000 rpm. And we'd be remiss not to mention these earlier spy shots of an
Audi RS3 testing at the 'Ring, wearing the same S3 badges as well.
Not that it matters - we won't get either of them, although a hotted up
A3 sedan could come someday. But that doesn't mean you can't start your own online petition to convince Audi otherwise. Get to work...
