So I sold my beloved A4 (B5, 01, 1.8t tip, sport pkg) yesterday and im looking at new cars, Im torn between the new Mini S hot chilli, with everything, or the new S3, which we get here, (for those who dont know it, its 2.0TFSI, 265HP, Quattro, 6Sp and looks awesome), of course the S3 is the better car, but its also more dough, mini is 32k, S3 is 44K, but i dunno, i may just take one more year to pay off, should i take the plunge or go with the mini?


BTW i have a deposit on a red S3...

 

go with the audi i have seen pics of the S3 and they are hot minis are kinda like pt cruisers to me everyone have one where i live and i get tired of seeing them and don't go over to the enemy BMW[:@]which owens mini i think

 

I know, the S3 is hooooooot, the onw i have the deposit on is red, with black alcantara/leather interior, piano black wood and aluminum trim, recaro seats, its got it all, im filling out the papers, pretty much if i get aproved for it, il take it, if i dont ill take the mini, which i really like too, i know theyre bmw, but i like all german cars.

 

s3, AWD...=)

 

ew I would never drive a mini

 

Ick to the minny.

 

come on you knwo were gonna be biased, with FWD and supercharger/turbo ( depending on year), verses lag free high reving high HP V6 and AWD

 

course i know ur gonna be biased, maybe its just what i wanted to hear, both cars would be new, so mini would be turbo, and the S3 IS turbo, like i said its the new 2.0 T FSI, its pumped up to 265 HP, bigger turbo than the 200 HP, chip alone would make it 310HP, it is as all S's quattro, check it out http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....rticle_id=4180 i guess im just need reassurance, its the first time i buy a new car, im 23 btw

 

wow 310HP on just a chip alone on a 2 liter engine thats awsome! take that EVO/STI lovers!!! haha jk

 

Just somthing to keep in mind
