2015 Audi S3 | Stage 2 | 11.65s quarter mile
There are plenty of big-power S3s on the market. If you’re chasing the biggest dyno number, this isn’t that car.
At ~270kW at the wheels, it’s quick — but the real story is how it drives.
This car has been set up properly from a geometry and suspension perspective. It’s not “on rails” in the numb, push-wide way most MQB cars feel. The front end bites, and the rear actually rotates. You can place it mid-corner, lean on it, and get on throttle early without fighting understeer.
If terms like camber, rotation, and balance mean nothing to you, this probably isn’t your car.
But if you enjoy a proper drive — early morning mountain runs, a light and responsive front end, a rear that comes alive when you ask it to — while still having the security of AWD in the wet and consistent, fade-free braking… this is a very different S3.
Fast is easy. This is sorted.

82,500km. Purchased from Audi Sydney in 2021 with only a resonator delete in 2020 with 64,000km — built progressively from there. No rushing, no shortcuts. Second owner. Weekend car. Water pump and thermostat done. Full service history. Ceramic coated. Most stock parts included.
Reason for sale: I’m moving into an M2. This S3 has been built as a track-capable weekend car and properly sorted driver’s car, not a big-power, thrashed build. I’m happy to wait for the right buyer who will actually use and appreciate it as it sits, rather than discount it just to move it on.
End of financial year is a few weeks away. If you’re GST registered, that’s $2,630 back before you’ve turned a wheel. If you’re buying before June 30, have the conversation with your accountant before you talk yourself out of it. You already know what they’ll say.
$26,300 + GST. Price is the price.
This is $15K of parts on a well-maintained, properly sorted S3. Similar money buys you stock. This is not stock.
