@@Jwdude123 wtf you do, can't utter a good morning w/o your starbsucks generic coffee ? Or you a alcoholic? Johnny Ward .... Oh duhh, you must be hooked on Adderall or street meth right ?
Simon It does. In most states, there are laws that say the trucks can be lifted slightly or not at all. However this is not heavily enforced. Unfortunately for Audi they cannot sell a car with what is deemed to be unsafe, even though we know nobody would care and it wouldn’t be really dangerous..
Lol ever since I bought my e63 about 8 months ago, I’ve got a million very tiny rock chips on my front bumper and the worst part is my car is black so it shows (I do a lot of highway driving which is probably why)
And if you tune it and add an after market exhaust, you can bring it down to 3.3 and make it sound like a baby r8. Imo, one of the best cars for the money.
I really like this Audi. I've always said Audi makes one of the nicest quality interior finishes of any car. Gorgeous seats! Love the front grill look too!
The back doors can unlock, Doug. You just have to pull the door handle twice; first pull unlocks the door, second opens it. This is a feature found in almost all Audis and VWs of the last 8 years
He treats each review as if he's never encountered another model except via wikipedia. This is normal. Shit, I think my friend's 98 jetta had the exact same thing, this is at least 20 years old, not a 'RS3 quirk'.
Even further back than that, I learned this in 90s Golf from my friend. Doug preaches quirks and features but dude doesn't even find the most quirky shit.
17:56 Actually to unlock the doors you pull the handle once. One pull unlocks the doors and 2 opens YOUR door. Took me a while to figure that one out on Audi’s.
My 2004 Volkswagen Polo can manually lock the door by pressing down the lock but you can't pull it out again once it's locked. To unlock the door, just like you said, you pull the handle twice.
My Chevy Sonic does that - There aren't any lock/unlock buttons on any of the doors! Instead there's just one big button on the center console. #showmeyourquirksandfeatures
Stop complaining about manual seats. Manual seats don't need motors below them, motors that take up space. Motors not taking up space means you can sit lower in the car. Low in the car is best. Also, power seats are heavy and add unnecessary weight. Last point, how often do you really move your seat? I'm the only person that drives my car so the first 5 minutes of owning my car I used the power seats and haven't truly touched them since. It's a pointless feature imo. My E46 M3 had manual seats and I loved them.
Yup. Got an RS3 with the manual seats (there was an electric seat option) and you set the seat once the first time you ever get in it and that's it. I have to move the seat MAYBE once every month or two if I have passengers in the back.
No one ever even seemed to complained that when you get expensive Recaro seats in the current Mustang, that you lose the cooling seats and only have heated. People will always point out the small stuff. It's just added weight if it's really not needed.
So, US regulations made Audi change the design of the turn signals and ruin it but you could drive a military armored car on open roads... 😳 Well done US ! 👏🏻🇺🇸🤔
The Frog hahaha yes that is the point. I can't understand how they managed Dieselgate, but you can drive Hummer or v8 something that polutes much more.
Doug type of guy to give himself a DougScore and not just that, but it's a very accurate moderate score. Puts him just below Wayne Brady on the Daily Score and just above Hilary Duff on the Weekend Score.
I have a 2019 RS3 as well as a 2020 Porsche 718 Spyder. I drive the RS3 year round and park my Porsche at Halloween for the winter. My RS3 with winter tires is a beast in the snow. I love that car. If I had to choose one car I would pick the Audi. Thanks for your great review Doug.
RS means Rinspeed. Audi's performance arm like Mercedes AMG, or BMW's M Div. Can't believe North Americans haven't had these things made available over the years. These (and AMG's) are as common as Camry's in Australia!
Anonymous. It's unfortunate, but it comes down to how stupid consumers are in any particular country. For example, Australia is AMG's #2 foreign market, not because of sales, but profit margin. They would have to sell 5 vehicle in the US to every one sale in Australia just to MATCH profit margin. 6 to beat it. We're dumb arses here. e.g. we pay double for music from iTunes that is downloaded from the same US server!! Not 'cause we're richer, we're just stupid!
"If you want the car to be super aggressive, you can switch to BMW Mode" Super normal voice "no I'm kidding" *With out missing a beat, starts talking like before* I dont know why that's so funny to me.
Manual seats and not a fan of the front cup holders so he gives the features a 6/10 lol... all after raving about it having the best infotainment system
Actually the RS3 comes with the option to remove the max speed limitation, it will then go 174mph (280km/h). Since many winter tires in Germany are limited to 150mph (240km/h) the alarm makes sense (well, at least in the only country of the world where you can actually drive the RS3 that fast on the highway...)
the rs6 drops 20k the day you drive it of the forecourt and 20" rims with 30 profile tyres on uk roads is a complete nightmare!! unless you buy for a business you got be a mushroom just loses to much cash and it understeers like a bitch at speed on twisty roads
I know, that's pretty sad. Just a german guy trying to be funny. Btw both quotes are lower here. The guns thing seems pretty obvious, but why the fuck are more than twice as much people are killed by car accidents in the USA. (in germany 4.3 every 100k people and in the US 10,6) I mean we are the one with the ridiculous unlimited speed thing...
I wish we had ring tone choices in our Mazda! The preset tone that rings when a call comes in with the phone on BT is super annoying, and way louder than the audio volume!
Well I considered the RS3 and ended up buying a 2018 S3. I paid $46,790 for a $53,500 stickered S3 where the best deal on a RS3 was $58,900. I spent $2700 on a APR Stage 2 tune and downpipe and I now have 400hp and 396 Lbs torque, I do 0-60 in 3.70 seconds. So did I score? Maybe not, the RS3 will always be a winner.
Proud owner of this same 2018 car. Watched all YT vids about them. Absolutely the best review from Doug. He nailed every aspect. I’m so in love with my RS3 it makes daily driving an everyday epic adventure. 👍🇨🇦
@@jf8188 Thanks for asking. Daily driver was the original intention, however circumstances have me keeping the odometer lower than expected. (just passed the 30K mark). Summer driving mostly, still waiting for a snowy winter to really test it out. No changes in my love for the car. Lots of interest from people too. It’s a keeper for sure.
Around 14:00 you said the car is limited to 155, I think it's worth noting with the Carbon Ceramic brake package the limiter is raised to 170 something, I believe 174.
Baby WREX Or save lots of money and do what I'm doing when I soon take delivery of my new 2018 Lapiz Blue Metallic DSG Golf R, do a APR Stage 1, 93 octane high torque ECU tune and do the TCU DSG tune. Right there your only 1,200 bucks into mods and your at 370HP and 383Lb-Ft of torque......👍👍👍
I'm pretty sure the RS3 and TT RS can be de-restricted with a performance package to have a top speed of 174 MPH, or 280 KPH. I wonder how it handles at these speeds. Looks like doug has improved his driving portion and also the walk around with an exhaust clip, so thank you doug for listening to us
I will never understand those regulations. In Europe they just put small orange blinkers on Audis and in the US they puch big blinkers on it that light in the same color like the tail light. And why this plastic shit over the wheels?
you say that, but : * US Mustang has hood vents, and EU one doesn't * US spec has 435 BHP & 400 LB ft vs. EU 410 BHP & 391 LB FT * US spec can get shorter gearing / faster accel * EU mustang doesn't use the 3 bars in the headlights as daytime running lights, instead they use the lame lights on the bumper for that * mirrors are bigger and bulkier in EU spec * Mustang prices are higher in EU Not to mention no gt350 in EU
I’m not 100% certain about this but I’m honestly guessing it’s for the domestic brands to sell more than the imports. Keeps the majority of the money in the US. But again I’m not sure.
@@francodevaglia123 bmw is very simple a 525i is a 5 series with a 2.5 liter engine and so on and mercedes is also pretty simple and s class being the best and the e class being the least expensive and a s63 would be an s class with a 6.3 liter v8
@@Fit.digital Like a couple decades since the last numbers on bmw's where the engine size. 316d, 318d, 320d and 325d are all 2 litre tdi's. Been more of an indication of engine power rader then the actual size since the 90's
The yellow indicator on the inside of the mirror flashes faster when you turn on your turn signal when the blind spot detector senses a car in your blind spot.
Spain is worse, try driving american muscle here is like 99,9% illegal unless you fill thousands of papers and not talk about periodic inspection once a year here... these bitches try to take out of the streets all the cars older than certain years (10 or more) and give space to the shitty plastic cars today Europe mostly has. There are so many great cars between 80 and 2000 and they just dissappear, and instead you see those nasty 3 cilinders eco boost, E Power, TSI, 1000cc, hybrid lawn mowers all over the place
van X meanwhile many kids around the world are starving. Be happy with what you've got man, also you are blessed to have at least a car to carry you from point A to point B. Have a nice day :)
It has the best looking front end of all the new audi sedans for sure. Its more TTRS or R8 looking in the front. Also if you want a true performance car you don't want power seats or a sunroof, that stuff just adds weight. Never let anyone drive your car and you don't have to adjust the seat ever.

Proud owner of this same 2018 car. Watched all YT vids about them. Absolutely the best review from Doug. He nailed every aspect. I’m so in love with my RS3 it makes daily driving an everyday epic adventure. 👍🇨🇦
You still got the car mate?
@@Sjwatts indeed I still do! And I’d “copy / paste” the same review I gave it 2 years ago! 👍👍
@@djbone604 do you daily it?
@@jf8188 Thanks for asking. Daily driver was the original intention, however circumstances have me keeping the odometer lower than expected. (just passed the 30K mark). Summer driving mostly, still waiting for a snowy winter to really test it out. No changes in my love for the car. Lots of interest from people too. It’s a keeper for sure.
@@djbone604 is this something you would daily if you could? I’m thinking of getting one for a daily driver
Around 14:00 you said the car is limited to 155, I think it's worth noting with the Carbon Ceramic brake package the limiter is raised to 170 something, I believe 174.
You forgot to mention that there is also a fourth RS model, the TTRS
Yeah you can buy the TTRS in the US.
But thats only for ppl with vaginas...
Daëmon ttrs with a stage 3 is a beast.
you are so mistaken my friend.
Amyn Tharani 600 hp in a small package? Granted a stage 3 turbo on nearly any saloon will make it get up and go
This car also has massive potential for power modifications. There is already peeps running 10s with modified RS3s, I can’t wait to pick one up!
Baby WREX
Keep the STI.
jldude84 th-cam.com/video/yDy0iv_cr1A/w-d-xo.html check those guys out they are killing the game with the RS3 mods
Baby WREX Or save lots of money and do what I'm doing when I soon take delivery of my new 2018 Lapiz Blue Metallic DSG Golf R, do a APR Stage 1, 93 octane high torque ECU tune and do the TCU DSG tune. Right there your only 1,200 bucks into mods and your at 370HP and 383Lb-Ft of torque......👍👍👍
Jonathan Snyder those are ugly though.
Jonathan Snyder still golf tho
I had messaged you to ask if you wanted to do a video on the ttrs 2019. I looked on your stream to see if you had any ttrs to no avail
interesting case
Best two reviewers ever.
I remember an ex-gf from high school, her father had an Audi RS6 and an E55 AMG at the same time. It was bonkers getting to ride in those.
Doug is the type of guy to dance to a default ringtone
I'm pretty sure the RS3 and TT RS can be de-restricted with a performance package to have a top speed of 174 MPH, or 280 KPH. I wonder how it handles at these speeds. Looks like doug has improved his driving portion and also the walk around with an exhaust clip, so thank you doug for listening to us
5:50 it encourages you to check your mirrors when making a lane change.
So far what I’ve learned from your videos is that the US has some stupid ass regulations on cars
yes
I will never understand those regulations. In Europe they just put small orange blinkers on Audis and in the US they puch big blinkers on it that light in the same color like the tail light. And why this plastic shit over the wheels?
you say that, but :
* US Mustang has hood vents, and EU one doesn't
* US spec has 435 BHP & 400 LB ft vs. EU 410 BHP & 391 LB FT
* US spec can get shorter gearing / faster accel
* EU mustang doesn't use the 3 bars in the headlights as daytime running lights, instead they use the lame lights on the bumper for that
* mirrors are bigger and bulkier in EU spec
* Mustang prices are higher in EU
Not to mention no gt350 in EU
US has some stupid ass regulations on everything haha. Source: i live here ):
I’m not 100% certain about this but I’m honestly guessing it’s for the domestic brands to sell more than the imports. Keeps the majority of the money in the US. But again I’m not sure.
5:42 Doug,the type of guy to have 1.5 million subs ,and still shoot his vids with a phone !
Lachezar Lazarov well I mean phone cameras aren't bad
“And you can switch it to BMW driver....nah I’m kidding”
Doug you're not kidding.
Doug's joy when accelerating - the best.
This or an M2? Both seem to have that "perfect power at the perfect size" thing going.
this one is much much faster on a straight line, better on the course and also has much nicer tech features. But the audi is more expensive
That is rather a question of AWD or RWD and Coupe or Sedan.
That's what she said.
D4VE THEFIRST we will see will be amazing if it can be this fast :D
Erick Khan wait for the BMW M2 competition ;)
I prefer manual to power seats. Power seats move so slow.
I think that the slide on the rails should be manual, but other adjustments can be electric.
they are lighter, duh! manual seats are awesome esp for all the fools that say everything is gonna break
Gotta love audi, they make & name their models soooo much more simpler than any car company in the world, #perfection
MotorHead Tech that’s Germany for you
@@admechskitarii6967 Mercedez doesnt do that, neither BMW, neither Porsche..
@@francodevaglia123 bmw is very simple a 525i is a 5 series with a 2.5 liter engine and so on and mercedes is also pretty simple and s class being the best and the e class being the least expensive and a s63 would be an s class with a 6.3 liter v8
@@Fit.digital Like a couple decades since the last numbers on bmw's where the engine size. 316d, 318d, 320d and 325d are all 2 litre tdi's. Been more of an indication of engine power rader then the actual size since the 90's
The yellow indicator on the inside of the mirror flashes faster when you turn on your turn signal when the blind spot detector senses a car in your blind spot.
That isn't a second wind defector it's a sun blind.
Mike Wish, I agree. I don't think it is supposed to be closed when the sunroof is open.
how does the dude have this channel
Oh thanks
My gti has the exact same sun blind and i had no idea people actually think that it’s some kind of a wind deflector lol.
When does Doug get time in a VINwiki chair
Get Exhausted yes please
Why would he. When will VINwiki gets in Doug's chair? He's bigger than them 😂
It's so cute, probably the only car I'd like to hug
Miata?
😂 I know what you mean there
This this this
You americans are weird...
sleds I'm from California not America
'If you set the ACC to dynamic you can choose to be a BMW driver' I'm dying hahah
Virtual Cockpit infotainment is the future. No more of these offbrand iPads glued to the dash.
It could go both ways... look at the Model 3
I personal just don't like dealing with a touch screen in motion
Please. It just looks so out of place jutting out of the dash like that.
plz review Audi rs7!
Doug can use my RS7 if he wants.
RS7 is my dream car lol
why?
I'm sorry its a ugly dog!
Dirty OLD SupAhorn yeah it is
He just did
America has so many stupid regulations it’s unreal..
Chris Trick greetings from germany..
I know right... mandatory ugly as orange reflectors, and yet use red turn signal indicators at the rear...
Well now we know to take out the extra light bulbs and remove the plastic piece!
Spain is worse, try driving american muscle here is like 99,9% illegal unless you fill thousands of papers and not talk about periodic inspection once a year here... these bitches try to take out of the streets all the cars older than certain years (10 or more) and give space to the shitty plastic cars today Europe mostly has. There are so many great cars between 80 and 2000 and they just dissappear, and instead you see those nasty 3 cilinders eco boost, E Power, TSI, 1000cc, hybrid lawn mowers all over the place
John Lu the red rear turn signals thing is actually terrible. Heavy traffic and you can barley see them.
“You Came Up” and “Laughing at you” are Big Pun songs. Either Doug or the original owner has GREAT taste in music.
🙌🏽
I also thaught so 😂
21:18 doug launching the rs3
The front of that car is brilliant.
MR HOYLIELEV I never liked Audi's grilles, but this one actually looks quite acceptable to me
It's great
Audi is not a flat earther
and they have the insane idea of "space".
flat earthers lack the intellect required to build a sandwich, let alone a car.
But that's google's map.......
maxxjett films unlike......idiots
Ikr? Even if it's so advanced...
I remember watching this video making me want one of these so bad, now, I finally ordered one 5 years later...
Congrats
Haha I love this video, gotta love German engineering lol
Doug’s face says it all at 21:24
E85 and an apr stage 1 tune and you've got a rocket. This is the car to buy in this price range imo
Oh wow stage 1
New turbos put there now too. Putting down over 600 whp
Alberto Portugal I've heard you lose considerable reliability after stage 1.... lol "oh wow stage 1" 😑
Usually u want to keep its originality and not that tuned piece of shit
FUKA Yes can take it back to stock tune and put the stock fuel pump and injectors back on whenever
Meanwhile I’m driving this Ford Focus wishing for a Toyota Corolla #poorpeopleproblems
van X isn't the Corolla and Focus about the same price? Last time I checked you can get both for almost the same cost.
Work harder
van X meanwhile many kids around the world are starving. Be happy with what you've got man, also you are blessed to have at least a car to carry you from point A to point B. Have a nice day :)
I drive a fucking peugeot 106 without power steering or electric windows. It doesnt even have abs (break system) oder esc
Doug is the type of guy who spanks his car, and not his wife.
Doug, I think the rear doors can be unlocked from inside by pulling the door handle.
09:06 Big Pun the owner knows music.
this cockpit dashboard display is way more amazing than the Tesla center console thing, ..!
Yes The RS5 even way better
Nah, I love the minimalistic design :)
Have a listen to the "rather aggressive & delightful exhaust note" 18:47
What! No white t-shirt under another t-shirt?!?!?
Sammy_sam662 thats the most uncomfortable lookin shit ever lmao
Thts Cringy af
Sammy_sam662 i
What's funny is that I was wearing basically the same shirt during the filming
Mario is the type of guy who doesn't skip adds during Doug videos so Doug can eat.
So he gets paid when we watch full ads?
afaik yes, thats how it works on youtube
Don't worry Mario, Doug pulls ~$30k a month on yt
all thanks to me and people like me no doubt!
Best Audi since the R8
Not really. It has 4 doors.
Mike Arredondo rs6?
Mike Arredondo the hatchback version not this saloon one
It has the best looking front end of all the new audi sedans for sure. Its more TTRS or R8 looking in the front.
Also if you want a true performance car you don't want power seats or a sunroof, that stuff just adds weight. Never let anyone drive your car and you don't have to adjust the seat ever.
He had it right - RS6 Avant. Speed and functionality. Plus it looks pretty badass.
18:30 Those are the exact same cupholders from my 2001 MK4 Golf except they're in the front
I thought the same thing lol
