mitlanevo, I see your point there. Hehe.

Anyway, this 3 door facelift still looks kinda dated. Why haven’t Audi do anything to the rear? csv was right. The Sportback’s butt does looks better. I’m still a fan or the RS4 though.

Besides being a cosmetic feature to the new A3, the LED daytime driving light served a purpose. According to a survey carried out in EC, motorvehicles outfitted or with switched on headlamps, actually reduces the numbers of accidents, whether it is foggy or in twilight condition.
Similarly,our G adopted such good practices on our motocycle users.

Unlike some of our local car assemblers and manufacturers, some cosmetic features are just as it is named – cosmetic only. No added value. Take for example the super ugly rear spoiler of the accent, or its comrades – the sonata and elantra, with painted over red strips on their rear spoilers, or the blue backgound light of the Iswara aeroback..which have no function worthy except for cosmetic purposes..
Nvtheless, since the consumers here are so easily bought by such things, the local car boyz will continue to reap in profit from them.. Offer + Acceptance= Deal.

aksMs, actually I got “imprezaphobia” after I first saw the new hatchback Impreza not long ago….. so now whenever I see a hatch with blue paint, I will think of the Impreza….(horrible, but no offense to Impreza fans)

but truely, I prefer the 3-door A3, even though the exterior is a bit “square”…

how come the 5 door’s ass looks better than the 3 door’s ass.

IMHO, daytime running LED lights are sweet!

Aww…come on mitlanevo. Does every blue car has to be associated with the Impreza?

hard to chose. 3 door looks cheap. 4 door looks like a wagon. i’d save up for a a4 even if its fwd.

the 3-door looks better, the 5-door version looks like Impreza with its trademark paint, lol~

I’d rather pay more for the 5-door with nicer butt, than that fugly 3-door butt.

More on cosmetic changes. I like the LED and fibre optic lamp. Quite decent.
