Finch! posted:Bad news. Australian pricing for the Audi RS3 has been released and it looks like it won't be possible to get one with a comparable specification to the Mercedes A45 I'll be replacing with it for less than $105000, or about $25000 more than the A45. The RS3 is not $25000 more car. Audi Australia have completely missed the mark. Are you kidding? That's outrageous pricing. And the reviews of the RS3 haven't been totally gushing either. Why the hell would you buy one over an A45...

spleen merchant posted:My 16 yr old, high mileage Peugeot GTi has been a little too unreliable for something I'm now using for work, so I've been after something newer. Great choice. My dad has one of these and this got me into the world of Renaultsport. The engine is hands down a gem, NA and revs to 7500. Brilliant chassis and handles like it's on rails. You won't be disappointed. One of the last of the last truly great Renaultsport cars before they got into this softer, DSG-only era.

  Still brilliant. I fear they're going to go DCT for the new gen.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:Not particularly - I have a FoST but really like French cars. Tell me about the weird French car things if there are any. After that, interior and driving experience. I've owned it for two years and besides a recently bung battery it's been solidly reliable. No mechanical quirks but a few electronics ones you may appreciate: - Trip computer can’t compute ‘est. km left’ if there’s less than a quarter tank, which is when you actually need it - Reversing camera has three unofficial modes it will select at random - strobe, blank, acid trip colours - Sat nav randomly crashes and needs to reset - Turning on the rear wiper is always a gamble. It may turn off when you ask it to. It may keep wiping forever, even when you turn the car off - All the controls are on or behind the steering wheel, which is fine. This includes cruise control on, off, and increase/decrease speed. But to activate cruise control? That’s a switch hidden next to your left hip - Engine cut-off at lights (already annoying on a manual car) is supposed to be deactivated when on sport mode, but will activate when it feels like it, except when you want it to The interior from when I bought it:  Will write up the driving experience tomorrow.
