Just wanting some feedback on the Audi A3 3.2S with DSG.

Girlfriend is looking for something in this class. I wonder how if at all it compares to the TL.

Oh we are looking at one with navi and bluetooth.

Both positive and negative comments welcome.

Thanx

 

While I can't speak directly to the A3 3.2, I did test drive the A3 2.0T when it was first released last April (2005), back to back with the TL before I made my decision to go the the TL.

There were 2 reasons I didn't choose the A3:

1.) Inside was cramped. I'm a 'bigger' dude and it was just not comfortable in the drivers seat. I also didn't find the dash/console layout all that appealing. Personal preference.

2.) Content.... I would have had to have shelled out another $4k to get the A3 loaded like the TL (NAVI, BT, etc.)

I will say that the 2.0T with DSG was phenominal to drive!!! That little turbo 4 screams and you don't even feel the tranny shift!! I can't even imagine what the 3.2 would be like!!!!

Good luck to you and your lady on your decision!!
