Which Audi RS3 is Better? 8V vs 8Y Real Differences and Driving Impressions!

Video Description

👋 After one year of ownership with our 2024 Audi RS3 8Y, lets compare it back to back with the 8V Audi RS3. So these are the two Audi RS3 generations we got here in the US and after owning the 8V Audi S3 and then selling for the new RS3 8Y, here are my thought driving the old RS3 alongside our new RS3. Overall the 8V RS3 looks amazing. Classic styling that is aging very well. The old RS3 has a timeless look on the exterior. I like the silver trim as well on this specific spec. Both RS3 models have the same 2.5L inline 5 cylinder turbo engine with similar figures. You do see a 7 horsepower bump on the new RS3 and 15 lb-ft of torque bump as well. Both have the Quattro AWD system that is front wheel drive biased and the 7 speed DCT. Biggest changes are the interiors. The 8V RS3 is showing it's age for the interior and multimedia screen. The gauge cluster still looks great and modern, but the center screen does look a bit old an the climate control and center console are a bit basic. The 8Y has a nicer multimedia screen and climate control section with better cup holder location and storage. Also the 8Y RS3 seats are more comfortable and supportive will all power control and memory seating. Exteriors have very different front and rear designs with basically the new Audi DNA for the style. Driving the 8y RS3 and the 8V RS3 there is a small difference. The new RS3 is able to ramp up to a next level in performance. The RS Performance mode is new and tightens up the suspension and engine aggression even more then the Dynamic Mode offered on the 8V. Power feels about the same but the new RS3 seems to have a smoother power delivery and transmission. The new RS3 can also tone down even more in comfort mode then the old RS3 and seems to ride slightly better. So overall the new RS3 is not leaps and bounds better. It is a nice upgrade with a bit more performance and a bit better comfort. Would still like the old steering feel in the new RS3, but the new car is a modern update thats fits well. https://704exoticauto.com 🤠 Check Out Our Website For Aftermarket Car Parts!!! https://brosfourrspeed.com/ Order Wheels and Tires From Fitment Industries: https://www.fitmentindustries.com/?ambassador=Brosfourrspeed Order a Pedal Commander Here: https://sdqk.me/59Z0ZUVh/eovbtq8d Order LED lights and All Weather Floor Mats Here! https://www.lasfit.com/ SAVE 10% by using "Brosfourrspeed10" Our Equipment: - DJI Pocket 3: https://amzn.to/4e6hFPK - DJI Action 5: https://amzn.to/3YGGYTQ - Sony ZV1 ii: https://amzn.to/3QMqmWO - GoPro Hero 13: https://amzn.to/3YKxZks - Rode Mic: https://amzn.to/3JDJMIB - Joby Suction: https://amzn.to/3SCrWZ7 - DJI Mini 4: https://amzn.to/4f5v7EA - Apple MacBook Air: https://amzn.to/3NNjSF4 - LowePro Bag: https://amzn.to/3wi1wlX - Tripod: https://amzn.to/3cJMAr1 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Which Audi RS3 is Better? 8V vs 8Y Real Differences and Driving Impressions!
