Thanks Pete
Drove what you love. RS3 or new 2026 Wagon if it ever makes USA
Hi there I'm in the process and trying to convince myself to buy the same Blue Rs3 2018 here in Canada just kms bit high it has 109k kms but unfortunately I cant justify the cost for one with lower kms. It had Audi care and I was told as long as they had there maintenance they are reliable car has lowering springs, CTS midpipes, but everything else is stock. I just hope the car was not modified and returned to stock.
Hey dude congrats on the rs3, I have a Daytona grey 2017 rs3 aswell and I thought I would ask because you said you thought the gearbox was clunky. Do you find in lower gears especially 2nd to 3rd it really clunks around in low speeds?
Thanks! And yes, 2nd and 3rd are a little clunky. Nothing too bad… just typical dual-clutch behavior.
1. Never buy sight unseen
2. NEVER partner up with ECS they are the worst Chinese part drop shippers ever, (labeling Chinese parts as ECS and charging double), and customer service is horrible.
3. Love your channel and everything and it’s awesome that you bought an rs3 , but a lot of the things you didn’t like you definitely would’ve noticed if you went to see the car.
4. Can’t wait to see content on this car they are super fun, I myself have a 7.5 R and next car will definitely be a rs3
ECS is so good HAHAHA. You must be one of those crybaby that got 1 order late and crys all day AHAHAHAHAHA
Exactly, my coilovers are from ECS, and so far they are champ
bought my 2020 rs3 brand new for 63k out the door in feb 2020 right before the covid tax
that kind of money nowadays will get u a civic type r if its marked up or maybe an integra s lol. or the mk5 supra if there are no markups
i also have rs3 floor mats never used since i have my rs3 weather mats
Sweet deal! Let me know about those floor mats. :-)
Any plans for the no homelink issue?
Probably not. Too much work for such little return.
Beautiful car right there, hoping I’ll be able to get an RS3 eventually. Bought a 2020 Q5 in October and I love it so much, could only imagine how an RS3 drives.
Be careful about what brakes you buy on ECS unless you don't care about brake feel and performance. Honestly, you should just buy OEM. Additionally, I highly recommend Unitronic for any DAZA aftermarket parts and ECU/TCU solutions. Product quality is unmatched.
I disagree on your first point, my experience with audi oem brakes has been less than positive. I can’t vouch for ECS and I don’t have an RS3 but aftermarket brakes were definitely the way to go on my S4.
@@month352bouncy8I too don’t have a rs3 or a s4 but I’ve loved the OEM spec brakes like the Zimmerman rotor and akebono pad combo on my A4 s-line
What do you do for work to afford an RS3?
FTE & UA-cam. I’ll even admit that UA-cam has really helped me afford these cars. Having partners for the channel is also a great way to drive in passive income too.
@@NewEnglandPete are you able to write off car payments as business expenses for taxes?
I don’t write-off payments for the car… as it has split intended use (business/personal). I do log mileage for videos and write those miles off. I also write-off equipment (camera/automotive) and that helps out for sure.
@@NewEnglandPete got it, thanks for the response - congrats on the car as well man! i'd love one but they're just way too expensive here in Canada haha
What is FTE?
So you want people to see the rs3 badge 😂
Something like that.
Unitronic tune time
Unitronic is #1
He went i.E tho
