GarageScout Take
The mechanically interesting part is the pairing of Audi’s V6 and six-speed S tronic with the S line sport chassis in the compact A3 body, while the replacement touchscreen brings current phone integration to an otherwise period cabin. The Carfax notes minor rear damage in 2018, and the mirror, wheels, headliner, driver’s seat, and rear armrest latch each have noted defects.
Strengths
- Panoramic glass sunroof and heated front sport seats add to the factory equipment.
- The installed 10.3-inch head unit supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- A clean Washington title and Carfax report accompany the sale.
Watch For
- The Carfax report lists minor rear damage from July 2018.
- The driver-side mirror has adhesive residue and a chip, and the right-side wheels show curb rash.
- The headliner is sagging near the rear, the driver-seat upholstery is split, and the folding rear center armrest latch is broken.
