1st Drive New Audi RS 3 - Best RS Drivers Car! Including Top Speed run | 2022 | 4K 

Awesome vid again joe I do like the Rs3 but nearly 70k for a fully spaced out is a lot off money 💰 still a good review bud 👍🏻 and a pocket rocket 🚀

Good review Joe,to me the styling isn't good,front is not cohesive in particular.Having been in a standard A3,I agree that the interior looks no better and infact it feels a bit cheap and plasticky.Im not a golf fan but this RS3 maybe makes the over priced Golf R look a relative bargain..It sounds lovely though.

I watched your movies with M240i and 440i - and i've just going to buy m240i or rs3 and can't decide - i think sound from 240i was quite good, Which would you choose for dayli with best sound good audio and quite fast. I cant' decide because i can't drive any of them they are unavailable. I've only tried 440i grand coupe, and this feels to heavy but the sound was very nice. RS3 vs M240i which would you buy and why?. BMW is cheaper and i think more fun but is it ? Paweł

Great stuff here, Joe - superb filmwork and sound quality coupled with some pretty tidy driving in epic scenery!

@ Babek If you’re willing to put down RS3 money might as well just wait for the M2 no?

What sound? Unfortunately the sound is completely gone compared to the sports exhaust of the 2013 RS3 8V. :(

@@christianknoch9227 Just take off the secondary converters. Mine is loud and still have factory DP. Past 4 years I’ve gotten hundreds of compliments on how great it sounds.

@@ryanb8736 his talking about the 2022 one :(

Thanks buddy, glad you enjoyed and appreciated it 👌

@@JoeAchilles1 ...great video....glad you mentioned the turbo lag, because that was the only thing I kind of disliked while driving it first time. Apart from that, the car was precisely what my doctor´s ordered. It even steered like my old DC2 Integra Type R..😁 And yes.....I ordered one the next day 👍🏻 I suspect that turbo lag could be due to a turbo size needed to extract targeted 400 ponies.....😁 I believe that bigger RS brothers use a small supercharger to overcome the lag. It looks like they had to economise here on RS3 or maybe it wouldn´t fit in....?

Yeah absolute madness! Nobby on cars helped me with that, I feel for you all!

M3 is 140K madness. We need this VRT shit wiped out

I don't get it, why are the prices so high in Ireland?

We are not allowed nice things in Ireland

@@pwfletcher007 The main factor is a thing called VRT (Vehicle Registration Tax). Take the base import cost of a car then add 23% VAT. Then take that new combined total and multiply by the VRT rate which is based on CO2 emissions. In the case of the RS3 as it is over 190g the rate will be 37%. And that is not 37% on the base import costs it is 37% of that cost plus VAT so basically a portion of it is a tax on tax. On top of that even when you apply all that tax the price will be slightly higher as Ireland is a small market and dealers are able to collude somewhat on prices to extract more profit. Imports from the Uk had helped push down prices but now that is gone so we are the only RHD market in the EU. Could be wrong but I believe it is us and the Dutch who tax new cars the most. To add insult to injury the annual road tax for that car would be €1,200. That combined with high insurance and fuel costs are why high performance petrol cars are not that common in Ireland

Cheers buddy, likewise with your one 👊👊

I like yellow one

Joe and Pete should have their own driving show called... THE LANKY LADS! 👍🏻😁

Awesome review and video!

@@douglasb.5601 The old lanky lads 🤣

Thanks buddy, I was lucky to have such amazing roads and weather to really push and explore what it's all about... Appreciate the positive feedback 👊

Well here in finland the rs3 sportback start in 87 988euro which is around 75 000 pounds

A45s is more expensive. I personally think that the saloon is better value as there is not many compact 4 door saloons

Here in Ireland the RS3 is over 110,000 euro so forgive me if I don't feel too sorry for ye. RS4 base price is 155,000 euro. RS6 base price new is 199,000 euro.

Cheers buddy! I can confirm it's incredible on our shitty roads 😂

Thanks buddy 👊👊

Thank you 👊🏼

Bruv this car is proper but no one is gonna Spec one unfortunately 💯🤛🏿😩🤣

Thank you 👌

Yeah I just ordered mine and there is no way you can get anywhere near to £550pm with a few k down 😂

Amen to that.. it's ridiculous here.

Thank you! 🙏🏻

Thanks fir watching 👊

@@JoeAchilles1 oooh Llandow Circuit with this would be good 👍

Thank you 👌❤️

Thanks buddy 👊❤️

Cheers man 👊🏼

Thank you buddy 👊

Yes, I’d be keen to hear your option RS3 v M240i. I’ve got an M240i on order so please be kind! 😁

@@Hmanchester0807 mate i said this on a carwow video comment section and so many people are goin on like its stupid to compare m240i xdrive with this

@@IBBZ650 because it is stupid to compare M240i to the RS3, a fair comparison would be the M2 como yo the RS3

@@yoyo50658 the new m2 ain’t about yet tho is it plus last m140 was on par with rs3 ya dope

Cheers man 👊
