Hasn't the new A3 dropped a fair amount of weight?

Even EVO mag got fed up with traction problems in their long term test 1M

Sideways on a track ... fine  :smiley:   

but on a public road  ... an understeering Audi would suit me fine  :rolleyes:

I totally understand why some people don't like powerful RWD cars vs 4wd. I learnt to drive in a RWD car and can't help but feel in love with that tail happy wiggle when induced.

The 1M is a totally different car, here is a nice video of the M135i.....

Thats a great video! Just watched all 19 minutes, although having driven a 1 series diesel and being a little underwhelmed you can't argue that the 135i is just epic!! Sounds amazing!!! :evil:
