Default Revised S3.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/shots_06_l.jpg"></center><p>The first pictures of the revised S3 are on www.audi.de
Some of the details are the RS4 type steering wheel, new gear lever with aluminium, and a new style badge...similar to the RS4 badge!

Default Interesting...

Nikos thanks for the info, but I couldn't see the picture you posted, so I went to the Audi Germany website.

If you go to the S3 page, you clearly see a picture of a red S3 with new headlamps, and silver mirrors. However, if you go to the <B>gallery->beauty shots</B> page, and click on the red S3 image - it is an image of the old S3, not the new one. It has the old lights, and red door mirrors.

Therefore the picture on the main S3 page is likely to have been computer-enhanced shall we say. Notice how the car has the same registration number, and exactly the same background!

Cheers,

AL

Hi,

I'm new to this forum, but im looking at ordering a new S3 to replace my Saab 9-3.

As my German is none existant, could anyone post a list of what changes have been made between the current S3 and the new version. I asked at my local Audi garage and they only said the climate control display will change.<p>Rick B

Default Does this imply...

...that Audi haven't actually built a NEW styled S3 yet? Or that they couldn't get hold of one for photographs?
