My mother has the current A3 sportback and we are looking to change it with the new one or the new Mercedes A series. The choice depends on the design.

One of the reasons I like the current A3 is its design simplicity and purity. In fact Audi has managed to eschew a lot of the design oddities that both Mercedes and BMW have fallen victim to. My wife's 011 A3 was ordered in Imola Yellow w/ the Titanium package/Quattro and I think the car is attractive and drives very well although the steering could be a little more taught.

wow that turned out good. not so often that a car translates so acurately from sketches to reality. of course its still needs to lose some cool to make it to production but it does look great. I'm in the same boat as Aaron I could go for one of these in the near future, provided the new 1 series doesn't make a better point.

This car looks longer than A3 segmant. It is more like an A4. Are we sure that this is A3 concept?
Yep the next generation A3 series will have a sedan as well as the 3dr and 5dr hatch and cabrio i guess too

OMG I LOVE IT. It's like THE perfect car for me in a year or so, provided it's a good lease..
I have to say I like this concept very much.
With cars like the 3series, C-class or A4 (this one in particular) getting bigger and bigger, such an A3 saloon could attract many buyers.
