Did I see a new Audi?

[DoggieHowser]

Damn, I really wish I had installed one of those in car cameras that are immensely popular in Russia

I saw a sleek white car earlier today but from that distance I couldn't make out the badge before it turned off to a different street.

I would have expected it to be an Audi from the design language but I can't be sure, especially since the Koreans have been doing a copy/paste design from the VAG group for a while now.

And here's the thing. I couldn't even tell what kind of a car it was from the rear/rear quarters.

It had four doors. But it looked like a sexier/wider TT. With a hint of a crossover/hatchback rear. LED tail lights.

It doesn't look like the Q3 though. I haven't seen an A3 on the roads yet but it doesn't look like the pics I have seen.

I've just gone through the Australian websites for Audi, Kia and Hyundai but to no avail. Been driving me crazy

Damn.. had a look at the S3 and I suspect that could be it.

Are there S3 sedans out in Australia?

[blutopless2]

There is an A3 sedan... not sure the S3 sedan is in Oz.

S3 sedan and the A3 sedan looks pretty much identical, from the back only real noticeable difference would be the quad exhaust pipes vs the dual exhaust pipes on the left hand side for the A3 sedan.

Unless it's an Audi Press car, there isn't any know S3 sedan in Austraila as yet, the official release will be April/May at this stage.

All Audi sedan looks very similar in appearance.

From your description sounds like an A5/S5 4 door?

I have seen the A5/S5 4 door coupe before but this thing seemed smaller.. It was how I would have envisioned a 4 door TT/hatch hybrid.

Hope I can catch another glimpse when I am in that suburb again next week.

I couldn't quite find the car in Audi's website. Then as I was reading another forum - it hit me.

It is very likely this car



There's a Range Rover snob elsewhere in this forum who claimed that his car has prestige and not a leather clad VW I guess he must think his RR has a better badge than this "Audi" huh?
