Loved the car. Very clean. Did need front tires, rear main seal, and tensioner. Too many repairs for the price. Solid car, though. Dec 30, 2020

Love the handling and the attention to design and detail the A3 provides. Like the performance from a 4 cyl turbo diesel as well as incredible gas mileage. Love the looks the car gets. Dont like the way it eats front tires nor the 3 recalls, but do like the Audi response to these recalls. Truly a quality car backed by quality company. Aug 09, 2014

I LOVE this car. It's fun to drive, has exactly the features I want, gets outstanding fuel mileage, has plenty of interior room, despite being narrower than most cars, which also helps protect it from dings in parking lots from inconsiderate parkers.Aug 02, 2014
