I think we can all guess Skaala's next car from this thread  :mrgreen:

Maybe if they launch a B9 RS4 Avant with a 480+hp version of this engine and with torsen center diff and properly flared wheel arches.... ;) Then yes....when it is 6-7 years old and the price is lowered  :roll:

Unfortunately we arnt getting it in OZ apparently. We get the S3 with 190kw but not the RS3. The S3 Quattro costs $71k in Oz. They mention in some article that the new RS3 wont comply with some adr's, which is a load of crap. Its just to expensive here in Oz with our taxes added on. Its a shame because all the reviews of it, are that its a great drive, with audi quality to boot.

Thankyou Australian Government :whip:

S3 Quattro 2ltr $70k

Holden SS V8 $44k
VW Golf R is $50k
Ford XR6 Turbo $47k
WRX STI Spec R $65k
Evo X $61k

The RS3 starts at AUD 206.000,- here :roll: then you can easily add AUD40k in extras.

Do you know if the RS3 is going to have haldex? Shouldn't it have the crown gear like TT-RS?
