Audi A3 3.2 V6 3-door

At the 2003 Geneva Motor Show, Audi unveiled the second generation of the A3, the Typ 8P. The 3-door hatchback was initially offered with 4-cylinder engines and featured a new mechanical platform, as well as a spacious interior, Fuel Stratified Injection petrol engines and a standard 6-speed gearbox (except for the base 1.6). Mid-2003 saw the introduction of two sport models - the 2.0 Turbo FSI version with 200 PS (147 kW) and a 3.2 VR6 engine, boasting 250 PS (184 kW). Both Quattro four wheel drive and the S-Tronic semi-auto gearbox were introduced as optional extras for engine variants with 120 PS and more. In June 2004, the A3 sported a new 5-door body, known as the Sportback, which was 8 cm (3 in) longer than the 3-door, as well as a larger luggage compartment (370 liters) and more room in the back. The A3 also included a front grille similar to that featured in the A8 W12. 2005 saw the launch of the S-Line trim level, with sporty decorative elements, and the 3-door incorporating the same frontend as the Sportback. This was also the time when the A3 was made available to the American market, exclusively in the Sportback body. This model included a 2.0 TFSI, introduced in 2005, and a 3.2 V6 Quattro which followed in 2006. April 2006 saw the addition of a more powerful 2.0 TDI with 170 PS (125 kW). In August 2006, Audi announced the arrival of the S3 version, which was the new range topper. Equipped with a 2.0 TFSI engine with a turbo pressure of 2.2 bar, this model delivered 265 PS (195 kW) and was available with both a 6-speed manual and Quattro. Furthermore, the S3 featured a harder suspension setting, reduced ride height of 25 mm (1 inch) and 225/40 R18 tyres. Engines
