Weekly videos should be constant again now! Also something important I forgot to mention in this video, let me know your thoughts below on a replacement for this as a new Summer daily driver? I need some suggestions! Should be fun, RWD and at least "slightly" practical ;-)
Bit of a controversial one but maybe a convertible like a Z4 Roadster M40i or Boxter GTS 4.0? If you want a 4-seater, maybe that M2 Competition that you've loved might just be the one.
i have a a7 55tfsi right now and am going to order a rsq3 sportback next year :) ! cant wait for my 5 pot audi (long time dream of mine since the rs2 came out with the 5 pot).
@@JAILFOOD honestly its better overall than my previous car (2015 audi rs7) because the performance is so much more useable and that v6T is for me the perfect sweet spot, the fuel economy is amazing and i just LOVE the cabin!. I had a audi rs4 2018 for a couple of months but i far prefer my 2020 A7 55tfsi due to the ride and cabin + in the real world the performance is just as useable.
@@carswithluke This engine belongs is so many more cars! If the size and shape were more appropriate It would have been incredible in the 718 cayman/boxster. Too tall though.
I would take that car anytime! Looks so good and I love driving it. I saw you in Laax on unplowed roads and that green beast just rocked it while others, even 4x4, were stuck. I will miss it on your channel😍
Announcing Luke's Return!!!! Welcome Back!!! We just got 28cm. of snow over night, so you made my morning before I have to go dig out my driveway! Thanks so much for your video!!! Happy February!!!
173K... Damn Luke, I still watch your videos as if you were still unknown hahaha you came a long way from 30k. Been here since Quattro days. So happy to see you make it bro. Keep being the best car youtuber. 🙏🏾
Everybody with DQ500 gearbox should take contact with TVSengineering dealer - their dsg software is noticeable smoother, responsive to paddles, stable on right gear and also does not hold the revs under 2000revs so therefor you become also smaller turbo lag. Of course theres no need to map the ECU, you can stay on stock performance, but the DSG tune is from my experience totally MUST have
Its a win all round Luke, and best of all your back....... Missed you..... And your shooting style.... Great sound the 5 cylinder always reminds me of the original quattro rally cars ❤️😉
Howdy Luke, how dare you have a break and let work get in the way of your TH-cam uploads! Joking of course. Welcome back. Great review, and honest, I do hope that Audi CH don't get poopies with you. The (viper?) green looks awesome in the snow. My brother is also complaining a bit at the moment with the CH snow. Great weather in Oz at ther mo! Look forward to your next post. Cheers
Greetings from Russia. I am an owner of Audi q3 and I waiting for a new Audi rsq3 in Russia. Probably this model will be available in the second half of 2021
Hey Luke! Loving this, it’s something quite special about the contrast of the car in the snow. It looks awesome! Quick question, what dslr mount do you use for the in car shots, the stabilization is very good! Thanks!
I love the look and sound of this car. Was hoping to change my SQ5 for one of these. However, one of the downsides of the SQ5 is the lag. So really disappointed to hear the same thing from different reviews regarding the lag and gearbox on the RSQ3.
Great video as always, man! I absolutely love how mean this car looks in all black. How would you compare this with a Macan S? Better still, will you do a video with a Macan S?!
@@srdiaries3981 Thank you! :) Well, I simply love it! It doesnt feel heavy and bulky, but quick and agile. The grunt form the 6 cyclinder is also really appealing for me. It is not like a Boxster/Cayman like some journalists like to say, but put in sport+ and you will have fun. It is also very comfortable to travel long distances in and I am quite happy withe the fuel consumption as well. The size is also perfect, because I do drive it into the city now and then. A very good compromise of sport and practicality, which is just right for me as a daily :) I whole heartedly recommend the Macan! ;)
If anyone is looking to save even MORE money, don't overlook the Audi Q2. That car doesn't get reviewed enough. They made it lightwight, so even with the entry level 1400cc 4 cylinder, I have plenty of fun with it in the city. Same turbo lag, but I put it into manual to shift it myself and get plenty of torque from it that way. It costs probably is 1/3 to 1/4 the price of an RSQ3, but doesn't have the sweet engine and exhaust sound.
Shouldn’t be changing gears if the gearbox is in ”D” mode! It does that if you’re in ”S” mode, sense it is for more spirited driving where it is useful for the engine to be more responsive. Also engaging cruise control makes the car to pick a specific gear and stops the gearbox from wandering around, even in gearbox ”S” mode.
With the automatic being so nervous, a bordcomputer option (to leave the gear choice up to the driver) and/or software update would be nice. A manual transmission would be nice as well.
OMG my mum's Skoda Yeti from ten years back had exactly the same problems with horrendous turbo lag and the gearbox 'fighting' you and constantly gear-hunting. If this RS Q3 were mine I'd be looking into an ECU flash with ABT or someone to see if there's a solution to these irritating issues? I mean this is pretty much near enough in the same class/price range as a Macan...! Oh, and my recommendation for a daily summer driver? A Range Rover Evoque convertible :P
kinda curious what others would think, but what if Audi put this 5-cylinder engine in the RS4, along with an electric motor? It'd honestly make me choose the RS4 over the RS6
Is the intro music Niteboi? I'm not sure I could live with the gearbox and turbo lag. If only they stuck a Porsche 4.0 litre engine in there coupled to a PDK box. That'd be an absolute weapon of a car!
@@carswithluke Ah I thought I recognised the vibe but don't think I've heard that particular track before. You got me into Niteboi after using it in one of the GT4 intros.
Cars with Luke thanks for your reply. I had this very 'carnumdrum' when I returned to UK from living in Zürich and went for the Stelvio QV after your review! (I miss Zürich 😪)

second the M3 F80 ..

I do like the idea of an m3, or M2 CS 👀
Ladies and gentlemen, HE IS BACK!!!
ΕΠΙΤΕΛΟΥΣ!! ΝΑΙΙΙΙΙ! 😄
finally ... i almost started to worry a bit
Ah man, saw this just as I got my morning coffee. Welcome back, looking fresher than ever - it's good to take a break.
You convinced me with your videos .. I ordered an RSQ3 Sportback three days ago ! 🇨🇭
i have a a7 55tfsi right now and am going to order a rsq3 sportback next year :) ! cant wait for my 5 pot audi (long time dream of mine since the rs2 came out with the 5 pot).

Are you enjoying it?

Im always amazed by how high production "look" your videos have. keep it up!
Don't shout it out too loud otherwise he'll be too busy with other "business projects"!
the most impressive thing about this car is that it does the same 100-200 as the audi sq8 TFSI (which is a ttv8 with 510hp!)
Welcome back and glad that you are well!
Thanks man!
We don't get these in the states...would be great to drive here!
Yeah and you guys would mod them like crazy!

Nice Milltek exhaust!
I’m glad there’s a new video from you in my subscription feed 👍 RS Q3 is also cool in my book 😉
It is good to see you finally back!
Cheers, good to be back!
Good to have you back Luke! 👍🔥💪
Exactly what i though. I started to worry a bit.

You have kept us waiting buddy, but it was worth it! That green looks so sick in the snow..

YES! He’s back! Perfect!! And green is soooo cool. Especially in the snow. Take care Luke 🤙🏼
Love the closing image. Glad you are back!
Cheers 🙌🏻
Glad to have you back. (Like many others here I started to worry).
Great video as always! I miss watching you powering through passes as well.
Needs a tune for the tcu, sluggish from factory. Night and day on my RS3. Unitronic does wonders.
Very glad to see you again king.

Good to see some new video in well known gr8 quality.

Der Anfang einfach soooo nice
Danke 🤙🏻
Same problems with my t-roc Rline and after the stage 1 engine and gearbox everything is working perfectly
Cool, if I didn’t have to give it back in a month I would totally do that
Good to have you back !

I'd love to see an RS4 B5 on your channel. Also, great video as always
Great high quality review. Welcome back sir!
Cheers 😊
Please do more road trip videos and food, like the one in Italy
In the planning as we speak 🤙🏻
That green looks sick in the snow
You could film a 1994 Nissan Micra, and with your amazing shots, I'd still want one 🤣
That sound and that color...whowww. One of my favourites.......(but I takes a RS4 as well).....
it is cool! I think the RS4 has even more cool factor, just misses the sound.
Good night! Wonderfull vídeo like always! The last picture, the camper, where is it? It s probably a friend 😂!
Thanks man, last shot I filmed when I arrived in Laax in the RSQ3, thought it just looked cool and relaxing
Good to see you back thanks for the content
Cheers 🤙🏻
Welcome back! Nice coat too 🥸
Thanks man 🤙🏻

Indeed, a lot of people wrote now however a new map could improve it a lot
I was thinking of getting the RS 3 Hatch, but this has caught my attention more.

best suv ever made
1:00 yay we got the wood back ; )
Haha yes! well half but happy they are stacking it again
I love my AMG45 Shooting Brake but the gear box....50km around Zurich, pick one and stay there!
I wished you could do a fair compare between rsq8 and this rsq3 ;'(
Would love to
Would you still have the same to say with the vorsprung version and all its packages?
11:04 is that Jon Olssons replacement for the RS6 ; ) haha
The color is amazing .We have a macan s miami blue and i almost like that green more
you are finally back! Now it's just your presets
Coming in April with the website
Gorgeous car. Wish we could get the RSQ3, RSQ3 sport back and the RS3 hatch back in the US.
Yeah was such a great winter car and looks and sounds brilliant.
White beanie at the intro.. grey later! You think we wouldn't notice??? 😜 WELCOME BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!
They need to have an option for stick shifter for their rs cars

RSQ3 Sportback or most commonly known as baby Urus!

kinda curious what others would think, but what if Audi put this 5-cylinder engine in the RS4, along with an electric motor? It'd honestly make me choose the RS4 over the RS6
Honestly I was just thinking the same today! Would be a masterpiece
The RSQ3 is _alright_ , but I'd have an RS4 instead. I think the RS4 looks _much_ better, plus I don't need the extra ground clearance of the RSQ3.
I agree on looks, sound though is terrible
GGreat video. Awesome intro
It's my dream car, it has everything, future-proof. That said, not gonna be fooled so when the price goes down the 55.000€ mark I'll proceed.
