Comment from : @dave_mably

Soo no drift mode and it’s not that much faster…soo why buy one ?
Comment from : @davidbestea4221

The new one will not age well
Comment from : @petertaylor6384

The new one looks like an a1 I can’t tell the diff between a1 and a3
Comment from : @alolaugh6624

Take old one for 25k put 500£ and smash that new
Comment from : @deividasrunca3596

two things that could make the old one slower; gunked up haldex filter as audi don't clean them, and worn(er) tyres
Comment from : @itsjustaname777

I test drove both I decided on the old shape its much nicer to look at i think it will be a classic and hold its value more
Comment from : @introvertk1178

I dont knw why but the yellow one look more like KIA 😂😂😂br2017 S3 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Comment from : @shadyxll

I love your comparison videos ❤😂
Comment from : @eddyjohnson1096

There's literally no difference really, day to day driving and the general race to 100mph there's no difference
Comment from : @bslothed3211

20 l and 310hp and 400 tork
Comment from : @houarizeroual4060

The older shape S3 looks so much nicer The new one looks a bit over styled which sadly seems to be the norm with too many car makers these days Gen Z have no idea what proper car design is All they want is fake exhausts, silly bits of external plastic trim that serves no purpose, massive touch screens and lots of toys My goodness, bring back the old days

I've got the same car rn same plate and everything bang on
Comment from : @aaryaanthepro9318

Great comparison I love my 2014 S3 One of the last manual ones
Comment from : @sparklesmagic2584

Over 10k more for barely any difference and a stupid petrol particulate filter
Comment from : @RyeRyeL

Love my 8V S3 I prefer the more classy, understated looks as well
Comment from : @iainrossiter758

new s3 looks sooooooo bad! incredible Better to buy a Lada Looking betterbrbtw i have an S3 8V :-)
Comment from : @kryptotechz

2017 s3 best s3 ever made
Comment from : @introvertk1178

Molto piu' bella la vecchia
Comment from : @claudiomaggiorini213

I recently replaced my 2016 S3 with a 2023 S3 The new S3 is quicker and rides much smoother
Comment from : @MOOVYGROOVY

Its pouring rain
Comment from : @Spiritcr1jsher

not much difference at all lol
Comment from : @rc29

I've never hears of a petrol particulate filter before Now I've heard of it 78 times
Comment from : @rascal1514

I’m very sure the 2017 S3 only had a 6-speed dual clutch not a 7-speed

Comment from : @S29ORY

the old s3 is better
Comment from : @aggounfaizali687

Should have had the one from 08 to 011
Comment from : @stanielsoncoochiesmellehsm6114

There was less gas press on the older S3
Comment from : @allinghamfunnylion9343

Matt stop trying to find something that isn’t there… It’s the same EXACT car in a different outfit
Comment from : @afrikanking0118

If you switch off ESC, you can rev until redline PLEASE PIN THIS
Comment from : @dsj9898

The old one hands down looks nicer than the new, especially the sedan
Comment from : @madrx2

That old S3 did very well I mean it's not that old, for being a 2017 model, but still Very good performance against the new S3 The difference in performance is not too much, so I tihnk you can't go wrong with buying either one I mean $40,000 CAD (25,000 GBP) for that 2017 S3, not bad at all
Comment from : @TonyKimtheamusementparkfan

This shows how good the old S3 is The new RS3 though, is much faster than the old one
Comment from : @22gepard

You’re not taking into account body weight of the drivers , also the wear and tear of the older car! brImportant in such a close race !
Comment from : @awsbanger

All the more reasons to not vuy the new S3
Comment from : @tsaki_titan

I suspect it is the way how they have programmed the DSG gearbox The newer 7-speed gearboxes are slower to shift than the older 6-speed
Comment from : @qio9

I think the newer one only pulled a bit because the older ones probably lost a few horses with age
Comment from : @HumbleAlpha

Had to laugh when radio that gets stuck in the inside panel, one of the annoying factors of the s3 Happens all the time to me in mines lol
Comment from : @jamesgeorge9587

Theres not that much difference in the drag race MATT?
Comment from : @rlakhay

I enjoy the carwow videos but I just don’t get this stupid obsession with reviving the bollocks of a stationary car engine
Comment from : @chrishall4558

People don't realize that the heavier car won Some witchcraft Audi has done there
Comment from : @jamesseome8670

The S3 8Y seemed less responsive due to having a bigger turbo than the pre-gen 8V S3
Comment from : @jasonpears181

Old s3 brExhaust sound better den the old s3 brAnd lose from 1 sec dat doesn’t always anyfing different and rolling race and break test brHmmm £39,000 I’ll prefer get an OLD S3 and save £14,000 and u can simply modified it 😂😍💯
Comment from : @Ayaanali1

too much chrome on the one one yuck
Comment from : @Nick-wb2mc

There's no way the 8Y with 130kg more weight will keep up with the identical power numbers on the 8V like that constantly Sounds like Audi continues their trend of just lying though their teeth about the hp on their S models
Comment from : @Trades46

I think you'll find the new one is quicker simply because the engine is new The other is 4 years old It's going to be a tad slower
Comment from : @brendonv101

Ur not gonna race someone for that long on a normal road so the old s3 wins
Comment from : @LEGENDJOASTHETICS

The old one is just nicer
Comment from : @tijn2468

The difference in speed in longer distance is called aerodynamics
Comment from : @LoxosM

The 2017 model launched was god
Comment from : @jubileeafrika9958

New s3 interior is by far superiorno sat nav that looks like an after thought! ( oh no, we've forgot the sat nav screen)
Comment from : @steveprice766

So Audi want you trade in your older s3 for the more expensive, quieter, heavier, s3why?
Comment from : @markrhoden68

Why does it always rain in the Videos ? Like 95 it rains in the videos
Comment from : @lars1440

If they didn’t have all the fake pops and bangs, I’d probably have one
Comment from : @isaacsrandomvideos667

The old one is much nicer
Comment from : @isaacsrandomvideos667

I'd chose the new one just because it looks awesome
Comment from : @Valdakyr

Good grief, just by the previous gen and downs the extra 14k on mods should be FAR PEPPIER after that!
Comment from : @youknowitstrue3403

Hyy can you guys drag race the new 2020 Audi rs3 vs that audi s3 brSo we can see how fast the rs3 is compared to the s3
Comment from : @leratonchoe7500

Prefeer the old one :)
Comment from : @bluray3743

i liked and subscribed
Comment from : @josefal-tekreeti9297

I think if you turn traction control off and Rev it will let you go above 4K rpm My S3 does, but that is the 8P model
Comment from : @jakeedwards3859

Drag race science
Comment from : @oscarcharliezulu

Can you drag a Cupra Ateca vs GTI?
Comment from : @ricknichols2259

All about Aerodynamic?
Comment from : @andreasposchke9545

new s3 vs new rs3 want to see if theres much difference
Comment from : @alexwarrener3770

Lol
Comment from : @nikaiitrk

Seems identical nam jamaica
Comment from : @phenamenol

Nicht wirklich repräsentativ! Bei solchen Wetterverhältnissen müssten beide die gleichen Reifen fahren Alter des Gummis und tiefe des Negativprofils macht bei so einem knappen Sprint manchmal schon den Unterschied!
Comment from : @hardwareoptimizer

This was a very interesting video that helps the most a future buyer 😊 😊 In conclusion its no need to give more money on the new one Audi 👌
Comment from : @costasonix

Can you do Mk 75 Golf R Vs Mk 8 R please? 😎
Comment from : @auntimame

The new one looks like someone's slapped a naff 90s bodykit on, mind you, so do most new Audis
Comment from : @simonhancock518

Mat not trying to be funny but we alll know the "faster" car is always the one YOU in So without watching your video in full we know who's going to win🤷🏾‍♂️
Comment from : @mikaeeladjiet2747

Thanks for confirming I made the right call picking up a low mileage 2017 S3 a few months back for about half what a new one would cost me
Comment from : @ktonkin3

How german is this new model? Just 2 km/h of top speed no more!! Just 01s for the 1/2 mile no more!!! Those audi engineers are too generous 😂
Comment from : @dotttabarroni8332

Tyres
Comment from : @PrettyGreenMonk

Time for the new Golf R!
Comment from : @roycmorgan

I prefer old s3, the new one seems a toy
Comment from : @marcomargarito99

Do the old RS6 Performance vs the new RS6, please!
Comment from : @tihomirtonev5943

Lleven este video a carwow Latinoamérica 🙌🏽
Comment from : @jesuslopez1954

Well besides the point that the new S3 is "a little" quicker, which I think isn't a criteria to buy that car I would definitely take the old S3 Because you want exhaust sound form a S-Model Also in this case the sound has in my opinion more value than the minimal higher acceleration Brake test also not a buy criteria, was a close call but not really a measurable difference brSo for me (besides the new technic) I also like the old headlights more But you know, just my opinion
Comment from : @xMillsenx

I hate that cringy fake RS3 sound from the new S3's speakers
Comment from : @scuderiamoly

Not much difference old audi s3 better car
Comment from : @mohammedshabarhussain1703

The difference could literally be the drag of the extra camera on the old S3
Comment from : @amird128

Lost the race just becaus gearchange or?? U see how he loses speed after gearchange
Comment from : @bombagenetic8095

The 2017 S3 will have lost a little horsepower over the last 4 years Likely if they were both unused, there would be no real difference engine performance wise
Comment from : @Spark010

The new s3 has the ugliest interior in the world
Comment from : @parv2saucy109

It looks like a granny machine to me
Comment from : @BobK5

aerodynamics won!
Comment from : @HamzaMHT

Im a bit suspicious, would love to see both cars on the dyno ;)
Comment from : @tomasdario8033

more intrestingly this 8v s3 did the 1/4 mile in 132 in the wet and the same yellow 8v s3 did it in 132 sec in the dry and it was tuned (!)
Comment from : @user-fu9rc1hz6s

That's not even enough difference to rule out manufacturing or age If the old one has some mileage even a little carbon build up(which they are known for), it can equate for a couple horsepower That's really all it would take for that little of difference I'd say they are the same
