Looks cool. Wonder what it will be like in person. Wonder if they left anything on the table?

Pretty slick little car there. It’ll be fun watching the s/rs 3 and M1 duke out the best small sports car over the next couple of years and how much potential each company left on the table for molders.
They got the styling on this car as good as it can get but it still looks like an A/B class with those stupid little shopping cart wheels and high fenders. Point to Audi and BMW for sure.
The performance is certainly impressive but I view it as an expensive Evo or Sti and consequently wouldn’t take the owner seriously. The bragging point of the ludicrous boost pressure is irritating as well, why didnt they make the engine flow better instead of pulling a b5 and upping the boooooossttt!!!
Pretty sweet car, probably lots of fun to blast around in. At first I thought the price was insane compared to an S4, but you have to add on a bunch of extras to get it to the same features.
Wow, 26psi is the stock boost level lol. Interesting car for sure!
Wonder how the aftermarket will be. Carlsson apparently got +90hp tune only. Iiiinteresting
jesus
what turbo are they running on this thing? Pretty neat that a stock car is pushing 26 PSI, and there’s upside with a tune. Nuts.
Yeah, I would like to know what kind of turbo they are using as well. I would also like to know how maxed out it is, being that it is already at 26psi. It may not leave much room for the tuners to do their “magic”.
