The RS3 Does Everything Well
Thursday, November 28, 2019
The more I drive the RS3, the more I like it. It took a little while to find a good seating position and figure out how the car wants to be driven — but now I look for any possible excuse to go for a ride. I had an RS4 for many years, which was great, then suffered through a 340i (boring and heavy) and an S4 (an okay but not great car), but the RS3 is a keeper. It’s not quite as eventful as the RS4, but it’s great fun, surprisingly comfortable and, like the RS4, feels special, especially when pushed a bit. I have the adaptive suspension with the Dynamic package - I’d say it’s the ideal set up for real world driving. The handling is neutral and predictable, the brakes are progressive and strong with good feel, steering feel is good for a modern car, and the engine is just epic. If you turn off the stability control, it’s even better — this car can be rotated in spite of its tenacious grip. I’ve read complaints that it’s pricey but I disagree — the RS3 is a bargain. If you’re an enthusiast who needs 4 doors and all-weather capability, I can’t think of a better car under $70K.
