Default Audi A3 facelift.

http://www.worldcarfans.com/9070917....ift-spy-photos

Before an all new generation hits showrooms in 2009, the Audi A3 is yet again receiving a facelift. By the look of things, the facelifted A3 and all-new A3 Cabriolet might be revealed simultaneously and although there is no word on an exact date the A3 Cabrio is rumoured to make a Geneva debut early next year.

With the facelift the A3 will be brought in line with the new Audi A4 and A5, meaning a sharper front end, the newly designed single-frame grille and small fins on the low edge of the bumper.
to see at IAA 2009

i know man! i've been waiting for the S3 for ages!

the only way the S3 is gonna make it over here is if the BMW 135i Coupe being released turns out to be a big success on these shores. And all the signs are pointing to the theory that the new BMW is gonna be a big success....so you never know!
I really hope we will have it one day, I always liked the idea of a über Golf GTI like the R32 (Sadly not sold in Canada) but who comes with the all Audi package philosophy that we know very well.

^^^unfortunately, I don't think we get the S3 on this side of the world. I could be wrong.
