Pumpkin Spice Life - Audi S3 - Gordonovski - 10-08-2020
Will do a full write up when I’m home and at a computer, but picked up this glut orange Audi S3 with 38k.

Oh baby, everyone knows I'm a slut for lime green but that orange has always been a close second.

immediate stage 4 upgrades required... man i love that orange
RE: Pumpkin Spice Life - Audi S3 - RawrImAMonster - 10-08-2020
Stage 1 tunes get these in the 12.0-12.3 range by themselves. It would be against the law to not at least get one of those.
Definitely love that color though.

I’ll probably go EQT Stage 1 for the time being. Stage 2 on the GTI was bonkers but I don’t want to futz with downpipe/intercooler for a while. It’ll be nice to be able to put down power with AWD now.

Nonsense, don't listen to this nerd. What's the point in getting a sporty car and keeping it stock? That's what CUVs are for.

Little bit of a whirlwind of two days after putting a deposit down and sprinting up to NOVA because I can't wait for anything.
Yeah, this is a glut orange Audi exclusive S3, 1 of 5 available...orange interior stitching everywhere. The Audi exclusive package included literally every option that was available in the S3 during the 2015 model year, loaded is an understatement. This specific car has had a number of owners, but from my frantic google searching seems to be the only one that has been sold second hand.
I connected with the second owner on Facebook this morning who bought it from Audi after 8k miles, and according to this article, there were sightings of a glut orange in the driveway of the president of Audi America:

Coincidence?
Here is an article on Audi Club of one of the previous for sale ads, notice the MSRP of *cough* almost $60k.

Finally back in Yorktown, took a 3 hour scenic drive and it did fine. Will probably change oil with the Motul meant for the GTI (lol...) tomorrow, and get a local shop that my parents use to replace/balance the rear tires. The battery is also from 2015, so think I will replace that before low voltage issues plague the ECU.
Heh - just saw that Audi Club NA also posted an article about the car again - a day after I purchased it.

My God, what a pick up. Good on ya for getting such a rarity.
RE: Pumpkin Spice Life - Audi S3 - Gordonovski - 10-08-2020
I've been chatting with the second owner who purchased it from Audi (who lives like 20 minutes from me and has the original orange stitched floor mats for me, thank god, how the fuck could I replace those) and lived in Texas when the Bilstein/OZ wheels were installed.
This video (forgive the vacuous mass recording the video) mentions the Audi US president driving the car. Think I'm tracking down the ownership throughout the confusion of carfacts.

You know I love it.
Can Mike D. Get you any more info/back ground from inside audiusa?
RE: Pumpkin Spice Life - Audi S3 - Gordonovski - 10-09-2020
Let's just say that this car is confirmed to be presidential.
RE: Pumpkin Spice Life - Audi S3 - Evan - 10-09-2020
