Jumping in the deep end. Suggestions!
Hey peeps. I’m doing it. 2026 RS3 sedan, cashing out in full. Don’t get the hatch here, and I kinda prefer the sedan anyways.
I have 3 in sight. A new red one at the dealer, 70km on the clock. An Ascari blue with less than 1500km, and a Kemora grey with 1800km. All have the options I want. I’m going to see the two used ones in person then decide.
Regardless, I’m modding. It’s been my dream to have a sick RS3 with a boosted 5-cylinder and aesthetic mods for over a decade. I’ve only modded one car before, a Mini Cooper S, and I’m trying to go a whole other level with this one.
To the people knowledgeable about the current RS3 tuner and mod scene, drop your suggestions! Price and shipping origin don’t matter.
My current priorities are:
Power, not looking for the crazy numbers, 550hp on pump gas tops.
Hood, fender, splitter, side skirt etc. body kits. My taste is a bit more ABT, not Mansory. My initial thought was to just go full ABT everything, but I wanna know what else is out there.
Wheels. Silver, grey. I’ll consider white painted.
Spoiler, suggest all types.
Exhaust
Steering wheel.
I don’t think I’m going to mess with the suspension too much, maybe just balance it to the increase power. Car already comes with really good brakes, but, maybe down the line I’ll upgrade.
