[ripper46]

r32 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> a3 3.2 fsi
again in the looks department IMHO

No A3 VR6 6MT = fail.

GTI > all others.

1. BMW 135i
2. VW R32 DSG
3. Audi S3
4. Alfa-Romeo 147GTA
5. Audi A3 2.0T DSG

I know that's a wise-ass answer but that's honestly how I feel.

if it is a free-for-all you might want to add some versions of the Renault Megane, but I assume that is an unknown quantity where you live

NO golf is sexyer than a dropped audi with choice rims and kit..

Case(s) in point.

[MRR]

No- the R32 shares the engine with the A3 3.2 V6 and the S3 has a 2.0 turbocharged engine producing 265bhp- one reason I'd happily have an A3 over some boring Golf.

Will they bring the S3 here please!!

[clutch-monkey]

if audi didn't have that ugly ass huge grille like a pug smashed in the face with a frying pan, i might consider it.
golf R32 for me

I knew I forgot something! I all I know about the car is from what I've read in EVO, but I already love that car. The Renaultsport Megane R26 etc is awesome and I really wish they'd bring it to the US. Good call.

We can have that. It's not our fault if you can't.

Neither should he now the mad dog Alfa.

BMW 135 = Unforgiveable ugliness.

I love how the Megane looks, untill that stupid steering wheel and ugly dash plus the Startrek handbrake spoils it... french sure don't know how to make nice interiors.

That's why it never made it to the US. The Startrek handbrake is so big that it takes the space for the McDonalds cup.

And you didn't even go the worst bit. The one the puts me off so much that just for that I wouldn't buy one. Click the thumbnail at your own risk.

[Waugh-terfall]

Volkswagen Golf.

The Audi looks better but it's rubbish. You can only have 5 doors if you go for the SportBack, and even then, people over 6ft won't be able to sit in the back, yet in the Golf 5dr, there is ample room all round, even the 3dr has plenty of room. Then you've got the price. The A3 is hideously over priced considering SEAT, VW & Skoda offer essentially the same car for a hell of a lot less.



How is the Megane's steering wheel stupid? It looks pretty normal to me

[jediali]

the megan r26(?) was second to the audi s3 as best hot hatch in an autocar group test, so at least it is a decent hot hatch, but in standard form its just a bit too french for me. i know people will hate me - but i prefer the golf in gti form to the audi.

Why? I think it's a perfectly sensible decision.
