This is a joke right?

It's pathetic. The speed of the car doesn't seem to match the engine note and the bloke driving has the personality of a wilted lettuce.

It's just more shameful advertising I guess.

Silly.

Reminds me of some rubbish car chaces where the car noise doesnt relate to the on screen movement
not as bad as the usual american videos whereby you see people racing and then suddenly dropping a gear randomly, even though they are racing in a straight line!

Off to try one in the morning. Not 100% sold on the styling but on paper at least it looks like a riot.

What a truly, truly awful video.

According to that you can floor your RS3 for quite a long time and not actually accelerate. You can even see the rev counter and speedo at one part not increasing.

Indeed. Advertising is supposed to whet our appetites, entice, make us desperate to get our wallets out.

Yet another fast Audi shaken out of their latest jelly mould, driving in a straight line. Dull.

UK advertising regs do not allow any type of driving that promotes speed, dangerous driving, enjoyment, fun etc.

Audi doesn't promote that either.

I like that Pistonheads slagged off audi for so long, even yesterday calling the rs4 dull but are still quick to jump up and take Audis cash

This whole PistonHeads RS3 sellout is a meh fest of epic meh'ness.

Yeah great Audi, its quick but its dull and once the honeymoon period was over you'd be anchoring over the driver feedback of the BMW.

I'm an Audi driver and a fan of the RS models but this model just doesn't do anything for me.

If we all promise not to buy one will Pistonheads promise to stop pushing these adverts?

Never driven one, I can only assume it will be the usual dull Audi material judging by the totally OTT and cringe worthy advertising campaign.
A car as good as the ads suggest does not need an advertising budget the size of the Greek deficit to persuade people to buy.
