If only they could sho-horn the engine longitudinal instead of transverse, with a full mechanical quattro system, rather than Haldex clutch, so it could have 40:60 torque out of the box like the A/S5's then it would be a special beastie in-deed.

That the most convincing spy pictures of the rs3 I've seen.
A few points that spring to mind....
... Is no one else thinking this could just be the new S3 rather than RS3
... Is no one thinking this could just be a test bed for new tech across the range? Especially with regs the air brake ( or is the spoiler about to fall off? :P )
My thoughts are, if it is an Rs3, audi Will make it completely bonkers, and expensive. Which is fine, it will probably be an excercise in "look what we can do". It should also re-address the balance between a3 top model and golf top model now the R has come along.
Well, that was a random post!
RS3 / S3, whatever it is it will be a bucket load of win and I can't wait. Oh an whoever posts any pics they might find in auto express gets an instant ban!

It could be but I doubt it, why would they go the effort of crafting an RS style front bumper onto what would be an old car if they were testing new techonologies etc for the new A3 / S3 :smiley:

I predict it is already too expensive and could be beaten by a mapped 170TDI A3.
