I have had my A3 for about 5 weeks now, and I still get butterflies everytime I get into it. It may infact be true love. I want to drive it all the time. I have already put on nearly 3000 miles (Long road trip.)! I can't think of another car I would rather we driving for under 35 grand. Hell, 45 grand! Its speed and agility make this the perfect urban automobile. I am amazed at how well it maneuvers in the downtown area, especially when parking. The car also has an incredible visual appeal, and the speed constantly amazes me (scares me infact, I recieved my first $280 speeding ticken within 24 hours of delivery!). Hats off to those damn Germans.

My partner has a 06 BMW X3, which used to be the family favorite, but it has been pretty much parked since we got the Audi.

Congrats to all that have made the excellent decision as I have! And for those of you who are considering such a purchase, be warned, spending that kind of money on a competitor would be highly regretful.

Exactly my sentiments. Most fun I have had driving a car in decades.

This just makes me wanna go and get my new A3 Sportback 2.0Tq right now. Unfortunately, it isn't out of production until week 2 2007.... I can't wait!

Thank you for your wonderful post!

 

I agree. I'm at least a couple of weeks away. Can't wait to finally driving my order!
Glad you enjoyed the first 3000 miles so well!
