well **** me, I'm about to get a car cash off craigslist and ride it out.
Hi, here is my view on the S3. It was an enticing alternative to the B8 S4 upon release in 2015; because despite it being an "entry level" model, it weighed much less than the S4, had much better interior tech, and had a lot more mod potential due to the engine being turbocharged.
The B9 solves all of these issues.
-The technology found in the B9 is superior to that found in the S3, and the interior design/quality is also a big step up.
-Drivetrain, the S4 is now turbo'd of course, and has 50% more displacement than the S3, so the engine will blow away the 2.0T in every way. You also get quattro mechanical AWD which is more RWD biased and has torque vectoring rear sports diff. Both make a big difference in the handling department, and both are omitted from the S3.
Lastly, it's much lighter weight than the B8 S4, within 200lbs of the S3. Still a little heavier, but all of the other benefits dwarf the small difference in weight, in my opinion.

I put a deposit down as well on an RS3 sedan. My dealer called me and confirmed it's coming. Arrival date August 2017 or sooner. We'll play the waiting game now.
