  • Today I have a special for YOU. Acceleration & Sound acceleration comparison of the new 2022 Audi RS3, the 2022 BMW M240i, as well as the 2021 Golf 8 R. Of course this is not a scientific test but it shows, that the cars are a lot close together than one might think. Additionally we have the possibility to preset to YOU a cool OBD device which lets you unlock "hidden" features on your VAG car. With SFD functionality even on the MY2020+ cars! #RS3 #M240i #GolfR

    Doing part of your review in another Audi may be confusing to other readers. I looked at all 3 of these cars. I have owned a MK6 Golf R, a 2017 Audi S3, and now due to a number of shortcomings on the RS3 a BMW 240i. Audi is dragging their feet on the US release and the stupid "Chicken Nugget" type shifter was a deal breaker for me. I cant see fiddling with that while trying to park or back out of a space quickly. That and the phony plastic rear facia. It is nice to see that I feel I made the right choice after seeing your reviews.

    I think the M240 and RS3 are close enough where both will be enjoyable. The two things that would hold me back from picking the RS3 would be availability and price. I have a huge feeling these will be sold at above MSRP when they release in the US and factory orders will probably be non-existent since there is high demand for them. This is making me lean towards the more readily available and cheaper M240i.

      That does seem to be the case, and it's easy to check. If you search through videos of press Golf Rs and compare them to customer Golf Rs there's a noticeable difference in performance. For example:
      Press car: ua-cam.com/video/6alEQGuroiM/v-deo.html (12.3s quarter mile)
      Consumer car: ua-cam.com/video/dEuiWcVMBAM/v-deo.html (12.7s quarter mile)
      I would understand a difference of 0.1 or maybe 0.2 with big indulgence, but 0.4s is a significant difference.
      For reference, carwow got 12.1s in the way more powerful A45s.
      Cheating is becoming VW's second nature it seems.

      @@xIcarus227 I don't think so. Consumers can actually buy the options they want for their car to be faster, just as companies like carwow demand specific options for their racing. Your self can do that. The GTI Clubsport actually has options of semi slicks in my country. There is no ideal or real world. The customer chooses the cars options as he wishes. Nothing stops customers from buying semi slicks, or optional performance packages. I would certainly buy that combo.

      It's pretty obvious that the press cars had way more power than the 320-350HP found in the normal version of the Golf R. The time suggests more like 380.

      @@xIcarus227 The tires pretty much can make the difference. To begin, I just find it highly unlikely that some individual specifically ordered a more tuned version of a car while the rest of us didn't. Secondly, horsepower figures can be exact, but each car is different. Thirdly, manufacturers complain so much about tires, that they are willing to claim cheated Nurburgring lap times from others as it exactly happened between Porsche and Nissan, because Porsche got beaten. Tires play a major role, and a 0.5sec or less can easily be attributed to tires. Besides, the very same channel tested a Golf R with winter tires at 4.3sec. With so many car related channels, its impossible for VW to build a handful of tuned cars knowing they would actually lend them to youtubers to test them. Forthly, ALL manufacturers lie about performance times AND carbon emissions, VW is no different.

      @@emiliospowerballer1441 once again, there's no way any semblance of a decent tire can make a 0.4s difference on an AWD car of this power compared to a top-end tire, period. It's just physically impossible to have that much slip on AWD unless you're using the shittiest tires known to man - which isn't the case, these cars come with good tires from factory.
      Furthermore, nobody 'ordered' a better tuned version, VW simply gave press cars more power. The blue Golf you see in this video is a press car, it isn't owned by anyone.
      Secondly yeah the same model can have differences from an exemplar to another, but not 40HP or greater as can be seen in this video. Every youtuber was dumbfounded by what times the press cars achieved with a supposed '320' HP. Now we're seeing that customer cars aren't achieving those numbers.
      Why are you even arguing about there being a difference anyway? I thought the tire made all the difference, this tells me you're not convinced about your own arguments.
      Thirdly, it's completely irrelevant how much manufacturers moan about tyres when it comes to lap times. We're discussing drag times, not circuit lap times. That's got its own problems where the likes of Audi think they can shoot the RS3 off the Nurburgring with a pro driver onboard and claim a 'record' even though its direct competitors had their laptimes set by press drivers which don't drive nearly as good. Probably one of the reasons the Civic Type-R held the record for a time too.
      Fourth no other manufacturer that I know of gave press cars more power. And even if they did, it doesn't make it alright so VW still doesn't get a pass.
      Evidence points to the fact that VW cheated to look better, just like they did with the emissions. Deal with it.
      Do we know for certain? No, but evidence points towards it. Nobody dynoed the press cars and now they aren't evidently available anymore - not with the original tunes anyway.

Another way to notice this, is in of the latest carwow videos comparing the new cupra leon to the golf R, on a rolling they were neck to neck, the golf being just marginally faster, but here a 10.8secs 100-200 says otherwise when compared to the mid 12s of the cupra, so probably customers golf R is around the high 11s which again is weird.
