The latest Deutsch treat from Abt Sportsline is a tuned Audi S3. As you’re all well aware, there is no S3 here in the US, nor is there a plan to sell one. The US doesn’t even get the 3-door A3 that the S is based on, anyway. European drivers will be able to hand their cars over to Abt Sportsline, which will juice up the potent 2.0 TFSI to an impressive 310 horses and 309 lb-ft of torque. Abt also upgrades the suspension and fits a sport exhaust and handsome 19-inch wheels. Understated looks, legit power, and deft handling are what Abt stirs into the pot with this S3, and that combo’s usually a recipe for fun. Unfortunately, it’s one Americans can’t taste-test. Too bad, as the car’s 5.4 second 0-62 time and 160 mph top end sound delicious.
