It may only make an infinitesimally small difference, but it’s still more beneficial than him (and others) saying something negative. |

Cool, I'm interested in what he's gonna say. I wonder what he's gonna say about the sound, the car will have ASD so it might actually sound better inside.
As far as caring about his opinion - I was just recently deciding between the RS3 and M2. I test drove them back to back and surprisingly liked the RS3 more (for sound, grip, power, comfort, instrument cluster). But deep down I wanted the M2 (for the looks, ergonomy, manual transmission, RWD, and just being a fan of the brand). I tried to convince myself that the handling is not that important to me. I literally told myself - you are not Chris Harris, you will spend 99.9% of the time looking at the road through the windshield rather than the side window |

His review will be interesting given the reported torque and/or sound issues if the EU spec M2C.

It will drift wonderfully!!! That is for sure...
He will have a blast. Question is how hard he is on the engine/gearbox absence of feedback and the noise. I think he will be really positive, because the handling of track is amazing. MR |

Initially I did the same comparison as you to the RS3. I prefer its looks, interior, motor, sound, and price. But, I recently owned an S4 and won't be going back to an Audi ,certainly not one with an automatic either.

Years ago I had a TTRS great motor with a 6 speed but it was a pig on track. I put a haldex completion controller on it and a larger rear bar plus maxed out the alignment . It weighed 3360 with 63% on the front wheels . The understeer was awful as is to varying degrees on every haldex car I've driven inc the 18 TTRS & RS3. The exception is the lambo huraciane they use a haldex but in the other direction it locks the front wheels and the rear are always driven. Carl
