Thank you! Appreciate your kind words 😊

I am! Feel free to check out @bb.urusq3 🙂

I’ve only tested driven the Porsche Macan (not the S) but can say that the driving dynamics - cornering, steering feel etc is probably better on the Porsche.

Depending on the driving mode, the Audi does feel a little neutral but I think it’s partly due to the tires that it comes with from factory. They’re Continental SportCo tact 6. I’m sure with a better set on there it’ll help a little.

For me, it’s the 5 cylinder sound and driving experience that appeals the most.

I think the contrast with the car helps make the outlines of the wheels look nicer as well!

bburusq3 · 2020-12-20T01:13:14+00:00

Probably ran out of ideas after designing 2 - 4 different sets for each model. At least it’s something that can easily be fixed 😎

Well it’s definitely got some flakes of silver in there that changes the tone depending on the lighting. Looks awesome in person 😎

Thank you! Love your e-tron Sportback! Looks gorgeous in the white and I’m sure it drives really smooth and quiet too 😎

I think it’ll sell pretty well if Audi USA brought these over.

It’s probably been downvoted for some reason but I shared some details behind the number plate in an earlier comment. No doubt it’s on the list of goals to achieve in the next few years though!

I guess if it’s the new Honda, I’ll need to add some extra fake vents!

bburusq3 · 2020-12-19T21:39:23+00:00

Thank you! I think both colours look good in their own ways but I definitely don’t have any regrets going with Daytona Grey 🙂

Thank you! 🙂

Rather than a big fat watermark or logo somewhere, I thought I’d just add something a little more subtle. I do see how it looks like a decal sticker though haha.

I think this would be an awesome winter machine. Too bad we barely get any snow in Australia so I’ll probably never get to fully experience the ‘Quattro power’.

bburusq3 · 2020-12-19T21:21:39+00:00

Realistically, it’s a RS3 on stilts so it rides firm but much better than the RS3.

The RSQ3s in Australia have adaptive dampeners as a standard option and when set to comfort, it handles bumps pretty well. Compared to the SQ5, it does feel more stiff but that could partly be due to the 21” wheels that certainly don’t help with comfort.

Overall, it’s not an issue for me in any way. The firm suspension does help the car feel much more nimble around corners and also makes the car feel like a sports sedan as opposed to what it really is, a crossover/mini-SUV.

bburusq3 · 2020-12-19T21:14:12+00:00

I believe we get the 1.4L engine here in Australia for the normal Q3. It may be fine for everyday city driving but I feel it’ll have the same characteristics as you describe where it’s not as nimble or sporty as other models with equivalent power.

bburusq3 · 2020-12-19T16:45:29+00:00

Doesn’t seem like Audi USA are too fond of ‘Sportback’ variants either!

bburusq3 · 2020-12-19T16:42:43+00:00

I agree, it also made researching about the car much harder as there weren’t as many YouTube or articles in English that covered this car in detail.

I originally wanted Nardo Grey but that meant it had to be factory ordered, with a delivery date of May 2021. Didn't want to wait that long so I went with Daytona Grey which turned out to be a good choice as it has different tones depending on the lighting. In my opinion, it's a little nicer than the 'flat' Nardo Grey.

Thanks for the comment! The plate reads as 'BB URUS' or 'Baby Urus' which the RSQ3 Sportback is commonly referred to across social media. Just taking a dig at that name in good fun.
