    Rumorpile: Audi A3 Sedan

    January 25, 2012

    Last year at the Geneva Motor Show, Audi pulled the covers off an A3 Sedan concept, complete with an 408 HP five-cylinder engine. Well, Audi is putting forth an A3 Sedan for the U.S. minus the 408 HP engine.

    Renderings from Road & Track show the A3 carrying a family resemblance to other Audis, with a large front grill, flared out fenders, and sculpted sides. The A3 Sedan will be about six inches longer than the current A3 five-door.

    Power will come from 2.0L four-cylinder gas and diesel engines. Hybrid and electric models are expected. Base A3s will come with FWD and a six-speed manual, while quattro and 7-speed S-tronic transmission will be available.

    The A3 sedan will arrive at U.S. dealers sometime in 2013.

    Shouldn't that be an A2 (in keeping with their naming conventions)?

    No, because Audi already used the A2 moniker for a model sold in europe

    and A2 is rumored to be making a comeback sometime in the next few years

    • I think they knew all along and were in denial.  I think that there are a lot of stupid people in our country, but it would surprise me if that many are that stupid.  They needed something to pin their hopes on, like some sort of Anti-Christ, or a scapegoat.  If anything, it could be the beginning of the ending of a very bad era. One very good sign is when Google Maps will show the inscription Gulf of Mexico ... again.  About two weeks ago, the wind blew off a baseball cap I was wearing.  That meant I had to grab my U-Dub baseball cap, which is kind of obnoxious, since it's all purple.  In no time flat, I found a large variety of Gulf of Mexico baseball caps online and for great prices, so I will be ordering one in about a week.  When I was on the ship that sailed out of Tampa in April for that repositioning voyage, there was a human p. o. s. up by the pools talking to someone and wearing a Gulf of America cap.  I wanted to say something, but I held back.  I thought that tacky people took short cruises to Mexico and the Caribbean, but I guess they cross oceans, too.  Money does not buy class.  Coincidentally, the perfect example of it is Agent Orange.  Merry Christmas to those who celebrated as such or happy holidays.  One of the things I will be celebrating with is a new Gulf of Mexico baseball cap.
    • Good morning ... ... I think I'm dreaming ... That it's (still) so incredible, that I'd like to be on one, and that I'd like to be somewhere warm and/or beautiful. While probably meant for the Airplanes thread, I thought I'd make it a general share
    • This is good to see that high school educated people and those with no education at all are waking up to the fact that Idiot47 has been lying the whole time now that life is tough for everyone. Donald Trump’s approval rating flips with least educated Americans
    • This has gotten to scary now that the Gov of Idiots in DC are no longer even trying to hide what they are doing, just going ahead and stealing Americans DNA to build a database to abuse the citizens. Trump's DNA dragnet: The law that turns us all into suspects
