I originally didn't want to, as I'd rather it come with manual transmission stateside. But damn. And yes, that seller has it listed as an A3.

I'd like it more if it had the Sport Differential like its big brothers, or any kind of rear LSD. But VW apparently doesn't do rear LSDs on their Haldex-equipped cars.

I'm starting to see them a lot around here. They're just the right size too.

The rear looks a little strange

202 miles and somebody has already lowered it and gotten rid of it.

The A5 better start depreciating more. I'd take a used A5 in manual onlyX bit I'd be perfectly happy with an auto S3, haha.

Agreed. That sport diff is a treat, especially in the snow.

I know. I watch the prices and they just stay static. Even at like 40k miles!

They're just such good looking cars. I'd have a tough time deciding between the 3.2 and the 2.0T though.

Guy in my building has a black on grey 2.0t and its real nice. He also has a red C6.
