Audi S3 plus to match Golf R evo?

[scherzkeks]

Came across this recently: http://www.topspeed.com/cars/audi/2015-audi-s3-plu...

Could be quite interesting if it's true, as this would mean that the next RS3 is going to come in at over 400 hp.

When did making hot versions of hot versions become sensible?

A RS/AMG/M model used to be the one, just annoying....

Not sure I'd trust them, to be honest. They seem to believe an 8P RS3 Plus exists when, err, it doesn't.

These two cars are going to be quite different. They will use different engines for a start

it does exist, had a tiny bhp upgrade, and a lot of options set as standard like buckets

not sold in the UK

Audi has done "plus" models in the past, too. The C4 S6 plus comes to mind.

Really? Every day's a school day if so. I even Googled before I posted that to make sure I wasn't mistaken, but couldn't find much beyond pre-production info that I assumed never came to fruition? I always thought it was odd they never gave it the upgrade from the TT RS Plus!
