Bought the A3 and picked it up 2 days ago...very happy with it! i love the vtec power it has!(bird)

got a private sale lined up for the slow mazda3...

will try to pick up the speed3 in two months or so when i save a bit more...
 
the A3 is a really nice car i wish we could get the S3 over here it makes more power then we do and its missing .3 liters as well.
 
An '06 A3? Nah, wouldn't even spend on it new, too pricey for what it is. And unless he needs more space, why's he even selling it?

If you have the money to buy a new MS3 and a used A3, why would you even put the A3 in the same bucket of consideration? There are better cars to be had for the price.

Better yet, just get the A3 and don't bother buying the MS3. You'll need that extra money for maintenance, repairs, and fuel (upcoming prices) for the A3.

Just my $0.02.
 
(hah)(dunno)(p5blue)

He had to sell it because he had a very high car payment and his ARM readjusted so he needed extra cash for his mortgage...but i thanked him for paying the cars depreciation for me!(bird)

i need two cars...one for wifey one for me


audi's break OHNOOOZZ OMFG!!!! i will be sure to let you know when and what breaks so you can say "i told you so"(2thumbs)

The worst part of buying this car so far...the Audi forums suck! or maybe it is that the mazda forums are so much better that the audi forum is pale in comparison??

(burn)
 
just found this thread...

I too like the A3, but after building the car online and adding in the options I wanted, that damn car was priced close to 40K! that is crazy for a car of that caliber...for 40k I can buy a ton of better cars. And even after 40k, the MS3 still kicks its ass, even with the V6. still like the way the A3 looks in and out...

Yeah new it is way too pricey!!
I got mine used from a private sale from a guy who needed to get rid of it quick (priced $1K under dealer trade in!)

about the MS3 kicking its ass...stock yes...absolutely
but will a few mods you can make it quite a race!

but i can say this...the a3's fit n finish BLOWS THE MS3 AWAY! (of course you didn't hear me because you were so far ahead of me)(rofl2)
 
hehe...no doubt the A3 is prettier inside. I like it, just hate the price.
 
pics as promised!
