Friends can bang, at least that's what @GTIfan99 told me when I slept on his couch

It's not your no no spot if you say yes yes.

Galf?

ngl it crossed my mind

spoof liveries in general make me smile because when they're silly but done well it clearly shows you don't take yourself too seriously. And looks fun in racing photos

GOLF would also be funny considering you're driving a golf

Is that like a '95? Mrs Nine's first car was a 95 accord sedan, 5 speed

That's rad, especially because it's a wagon

On my commute this morning, I realized that I don't deserve an RS3. I was following one in that nice Nardo Grey color. Got really excited because I don't see a lot of them in the wild. Slowly came to the conclusion that this person drives just like I do, and the car deserves so much more.

You mean the car was driving just like you? Since that car does 99% of the work?

If cars had feelings I'm sure it would be just as bored as the driver

The Audi RS3 is the poster child of mediocrity in the performance car world, and here's why it’s an absolute snoozefest:

1. Design by Blandness
   From a distance, the RS3 could easily be mistaken for a basic A3 with some cheap aftermarket rims. Audi's "same sausage, different lengths" design philosophy has reached new heights of monotony. Sure, it has aggressive grilles and some oversized intakes, but they scream "try-hard" rather than "performance pedigree." It's the car equivalent of a dude wearing a leather jacket indoors to seem edgy.
2. Safe, Sanitized Driving Experience
   The RS3's performance feels engineered to please someone who's never pushed a car to its limits. Yes, it’s quick in a straight line, but it’s like a PlayStation game with all the assists on—too predictable and lacking any real engagement. The quattro all-wheel drive system is so over-engineered that it robs the driver of any genuine connection to the road. The result? A car that feels like it’s driving itself while you sit there pretending you’re a motorsport hero.
3. Five-Cylinder Hype Machine
   Audi fans love to gush about the RS3’s five-cylinder engine, but let's be honest: its sound is overrated, and the novelty wears off quickly. The engine note is all bark and no soul—just noise with none of the visceral thrills of a high-revving naturally aspirated unit or a proper V8. It’s like listening to a YouTube video of fireworks: loud, sure, but ultimately hollow.
4. Luxury Without Character
   The interior is typical Audi—slick, well-made, and about as exciting as an Excel spreadsheet. It’s a great place to be if you like feeling like you’re in an airport lounge. There's zero charm, no sense of occasion—just a sterile environment filled with screens and buttons that remind you you're in yet another German exercise in soulless efficiency.
5. Overpriced Status Symbol
   The RS3 costs as much as cars that offer significantly more fun and personality. It’s the car you buy if you want people to think you’re into performance cars without actually being into performance cars. For the price, you could get something like a Toyota GR Corolla or a Honda Civic Type R—cars that actually reward the driver and don’t just make you look good in Instagram photos.

In summary, the RS3 is the automotive equivalent of a pre-packaged meal—competent, polished, but entirely uninspiring. If you like your performance cars with a side of soul-sucking monotony, by all means, enjoy your RS3. Just don’t expect anyone with a pulse to envy you.

Is that AI or from a legit article? haha. Seems super on point though.

Back to looking for a VR6, I guess.

Edit for reasoning: I drive slow and am just commuting most of the time, but I do enjoy a good engine sound. And I don't think I could have ever brought myself to the price tag of the RS3, even used haha.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about my RS3, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I drive the pinnacle of compact performance sedans, with a five-cylinder symphony that makes angels weep and a 0-60 time faster than your mom’s grocery list. I’ve smoked countless pretenders like your clapped-out MK6 GTI on the highway, at the track, and in front of Starbucks, and I have over 300 confirmed launches in Sport mode. My car is a Quattro beast, and you are nothing but a lowly front-wheel drive peasant with a misfiring cylinder and a check-engine light as bright as your future is dim.

You think you can talk shit about the RS3 on your little forum just because you’ve been a mod for six years? Think again, dipshit. As we speak, I’m uploading a POV video of my RS3 destroying a GTI at a roll race to every corner of the Internet, so everyone can see just how much of a joke your car is. The sheer embarrassment will wipe out whatever shred of credibility you thought you had, you pathetic wrench turner. I’m everywhere—on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok—and my RS3 can humiliate you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just in Comfort mode.

Not only am I extensively trained in taking apexes and gap insurance claims, but I also have access to the full arsenal of Audi Sport engineering. Your MK6, on the other hand, is held together by zip ties, prayer, and a discount O2 sensor. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your limp-ass post was about to unleash, maybe you would have kept your rusty little fingers off the keyboard. But you didn’t, and now you’ll reap what you sowed, you goddamn fool. I’ll send DSG farts echoing through your nightmares and leave you in a cloud of Continental DWS-06 dust.

You’re fucking dead, kiddo. Your GTI? Even deader.

Doesn't matter if it's spot on which it is.

But chatgpt and my soul are connected clearly.
