"The Audi A3 five-door hatchback, a hit in Europe, will come to the United States in May."

yeah.. a friend of mine spoke with the dealer earler today and he said that he should be getting the A3 in May and A3 quattro about half a year later..

and then what was suprising is that he said a year after we will get the RS3 here in america.

he also talked about the RS4 that will come.

RS3!? I thought RS models would be strictly for the A4 / A6 chassis only. S3 perhaps? Either way it will be a beast.

yeah i was suprised myself to hear the words "RS3" and "will be here".. the guy just started talking about it.
he is the head of a dealership here.

he also has autographs of Pobst and Galati in his RS6, which he is now selling (i hear).

If the RS3 did come out... It would be 3.2 Biturbo.... It have at least 400hp... and its alot lighter than the B7.
