Audi A3

[wglee]

The Audi A3 5-door was just launched locally a few days ago. Saw it in KLCC. Very good build quality. RM225k for 150bhp 2.0FSi and RM255k for 200bhp 2.0TFSi. What do you guys think of it especially in comparison to the BMW 1-series?

Isn't the A3 a tarted up Golf?

Pretty much...

Actually I would buy this over the poorly packaged 1-series. Especially with the DSG transmission. Its supposed to be pretty good. I have not driven the A3 but have sat inside. Good materials overall. Not too sure about the styling, though.

The M'sian spec A3 has the DSG transmission. But strangely, for this class of cars, it has no curtain airbags.
