The Audi S3 Sedan is mostly chosen by clients who either cannot afford the RS3, or consider it to be too brutal.
But with the kind of work that went into this particular car, its owner could have gone for the RS version without breaking a sweat, as it has been extensively modified.
Filmed on the streets of Germany at several car events, the sports sedan features some discreet revisions on the outside, is dressed in blue contrasted by the black bits, and appears to sit closer to the ground than the standard S3.

Thanks to the Milltek exhaust system, the S3 Sedan in question makes its presence felt wherever it goes. And that’s not the only mechanical upgrade, as it’s said to benefit from as much as 480PS (473hp / 353kW), or 180PS (177hp / 132kW) more than the stock model, in Euro-spec guise, whose turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine produces 300PS (296hp / 221kW) and 300Nm (280lb-ft) of torque.
This means that this S3 is more powerful than the RS3, which is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder with 400PS (394hp / 294kW) and 480Nm (354lb-ft) of torque. The RS3 Sedan hits 100km/h (62mph) in 4.1sec and maxes out at 250km/h (155mph), or 280km/h (174mph) with the electronic limiter removed. Thus, we presume the tuned S3 depicted on the video below could actually reach 100km/h (62mph) probably in 4.0 seconds, or a bit faster, on a good day.
