One of my favouraite 3dr hatch

Happened to browse through the web for some Audi tuning info. One that caught my eye was surprisingly one of the cheapest in the tuning industry's lineup.

The 3 Dr Audi A3 has always been one of the most understated car. With its Quattro and compact frame, handling would be a brisk affair. Even the longer 5 dr Sportback looks rather Sporty to me.

This entry will be dedicated to the 3 Dr variant













This ABT - tuned "AS3" with quads looks like a car for the young executive with an R8 wallpaper on his notebook and a whole range of Audi die cast models in his bedroom.

Sporty yet tame, this is one of the ore "sleeper cars" on the road.















Black rims go really well with white cars, more so when the whiteness brings out the curvature of the car, as seen in this S3.














Looks subtle, not overdone, but onlooking petrol heads will know that the owner knows something about beautifying his car. Stickered bonnet and fiberglass eyelids add a masculine touch to the car.




Whythiscar?

- Rather rare in Singapore. people would rather go for the more practical Sportback version.

- Endless potential for mods.

- Quattro AWD handling provides plenty of grip round corners, especially when paired with such a compact and well sorted chassis.
