I actually really like it. Now if they only did it in a 3dr SUV style as well. I dont need rear ejector hatches.

One does not simply walk into a mordor!!  :grin:

Like the Quattro logo at the bottom of the grill.

Now if it did make it to production, you'd be looking at circa £50k or more i'd guess

The mother in law had a Q3

Sold it because its a pointless car, this is merely a faster more plasticky version.... I would yawn but if I open my mouth some bile might escape...

Not for me.  I look at the rear three-quarters and I see a Fiat 500 that's been over-inflated.  Then I look at the front and see that Audi have put the same Fiat through a bling machine.

And what's the point of a slower, heavier A3 with more headroom?

At this point in my rant, I'm supposed to say ETTO, aren't I?  Well, tough.  I'm not going to, so there!   :P

In the famous last words of Jeremy Clarkson "If that car ever gets made, I'll eat my hair"

Surely Audi are clued up enough to know that car is Marmite and too much of a risk to actually make?!

This is the new Audi RS Q3 concept, a car that Audi will present to the world in the metal at the Beijing motor show later next week.

Powering the concept is the oft-used 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbocharged engine, this time producing the same 360hp as it does in the new TT RS plus, with power channelled to all four wheels via a seven-speed S Tronic twin-clutch gearbox. This is enough for it to haul itself to 62mph in 5.2 seconds and to hit 165mph flat out.
 
The RS Q3 concept also gets lowered by 25mm, and has been treated to an RS-ification, with all manner of trims and CFRP bits and bobs and redesigned bumpers front and rear. Chunky 355/30 20-inch wheels are also fitted
 
What's particularly curious about the RS Q3 is that not so long ago none other than Audi's senior technical man, Stephan Reil, vowed that there would be no RS models for Audi SUVs. Do we smell the beginnings of a U-turn?

Pictures for lazy people and those who have had PH blocked at work.  :stupid:

I quite like it's look to be honest. Would I ever buy one? No. If Audi spent their time developing model that actually were gonna be produced we'd all have (the chance to buy) better Audi's. I very much like the interior and engine bay tho. Might take something away and use as inspiration.  :chicken:

Although probably not a car we're likely to see it's leagues better than Audi's other hint at a fast SUV:  :sick: :sick: :sick:

Bloody cool looking thing that.

Tubbier and slower than the other 2.5TFSI's but it's got the image and exhaust pipe setup as said, which I think is key to any A-RS car.

I almost want them to cosmetically re-do the RS3, it had so much promise of a real hyper-hatch presence :chicken:
Hopefully the facelift will be more B7 RS4'esque...
