    I have my A3 3.2 for over 2 years now. It's slow compared to most modern performance cars, but the sound with an exhaust mod is amazing! No plans to ever sell it.

    The R32 / A3 3.2 are quite a bit heavier than the 130i. To me the 130i feels considerably quicker and more immediate in day to day driving.

    About the zf 6 speed, m539 restorations mentions that you can get alpina software for it to make it much snappier.

    That A3 must be similar to the Golf R32, except softer.
    Did it have a real Quattro awd or haldex awd?

    • @KiwiCarLife
      @KiwiCarLife  Рік тому +2

      Not totally sure tbh, but yeah I’ve heard it’s a little softer

    • @mattdebyl8806
      @mattdebyl8806 Рік тому +3

      They’re basically the same. The Audi from memory is ever so slightly longer and a touch lighter. They’re all haldex, thus transverse layout.

    • @viniciusmagnoni6492
      @viniciusmagnoni6492 7 місяців тому +2

      It's a Haldex, but being just a 250hp V6 it doesn't make much difference compared to a Torsen.

      Its a budget R32, from the factory the R32 has a slightly more aggressive gear ratio in the DSG and I think the seats hold you more.

      I’ve had both and also a Corrado converted with an Audi 3.2 in it. The 130i is just in a different league to drive. The RWD little hatch is just so much better to drive. The Corrado was also great fun. The Audi was so dull I took the engine out to put in the Corrado.
