The 2018 Audi RS 3 is a high-performance variant of the A3 and S3 sedans. It is available in a single trim level and is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine (400 hp, 354 lb-ft). A seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels.
PROS Potent acceleration and heaps of traction Well-trimmed cabin Enough practicality to serve everyday use
CONS Ride quality might be too firm for casual drivers Snug back seat and small cargo area
Overall, an excellent car, even considering the high price given the size. It has a well-rounded set of features, and when performance is taken into account, some would even argue that it is good value for money. Definitely well worth a drive!
pros Excellent power and performance; Five-cylinder exhaust sound is unique; Interior fit and finish typical high Audi quality; Chuckability around tight roads; Sharp looks both inside and out
Cons Turbo lag (which may be a pro for some!); Transmission logic in Comfort mode; Software bugs in engine and transmission control units; Lack of electric seat adjustability; No puddle lights
Pros Outrageous speed Fantastic grip High-quality interior
Cons Very expensive Alternatives have bigger boots Thirsty engine
The 2019 Infiniti Q70 is a five-passenger midsize luxury sedan with an excellent available V8 that's otherwise showing its age, and it's outshined by more recent competitors.The big V8 adds a lot of character to the otherwise middling Q70, so the Q70 5.6 Luxe is the trim we'd pick. Unless driving in inclement weather is a common occurrence for you, we'd also forgo all-wheel drive.
Pros Athletic, with strong acceleration in V8 versions Large cabin with comfortable seats
Cons Limited small-item storage in cabin Ride comfort suffers with the 20-inch wheels Many driver assistance features are optional Infotainment interface is dated and clunky to use
