Audi S3 starts at $41,400, A3 Cabrio rings up at $35,600 and A3 TDI priced from $32,6
Filed under: Convertible, Sedan, Performance, Audi, Luxury

Audi has released the official pricing info for the all-new A3 TDI Sedan, A3 Cabriolet and the S3 Sedan, and the news appears pretty good all around. As usual, none of the following prices include Audi's unspecified-for-now destination charges.
The big news is the S3, complete with 292 horsepower, a six-speed dual-clutch transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive. Prices start at just $41,100, which is a decent savings over the more powerful, 355-hp Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG.
The new A3 TDI sedan, meanwhile, has a starting price of just $32,600. While you'll be certain to save some money on fuel, you'll be doing so without Quattro all-wheel drive. Still, the improved economy of the 2.0-liter, turbodiesel four-cylinder isn't priced too steeply, relative to the gas-powered A3's $29,900 starting price.
Finally, the A3 Cabriolet will be available in a pair of powertrain groups. The base, front-drive 1.8-liter model starts at $35,600. That's a fair jump in price over the A3 Sedan, but hey, at least there's unlimited headroom. The 2.0-liter, Quattro-equipped droptop will ring up at $38,600. For reference, the same powertrain in the four-door model starts at $32,900.
Take a look below for the full pricing recap release from Audi.Continue reading Audi S3 starts at $41,400, A3 Cabrio rings up at $35,600 and A3 TDI priced from $32,600

I am very disappointed to hear that the US A3 will not be offered in a manual transmission. Can anyone tell me how much more expensive it would be to purchase a manual transmission A3 through a German dealership? Does the conversion rate make it ridiculously expensive? I would figure $2K for shipping on top of that...any other surprises (e.g., export fees)?
Does anyone know if the A3 sedan or cabrio will be offered with a manual transmission in Canada? I live in Metro Detroit and would consider that option as well.
Any information would be appreciated.
