    ABT Reveal 493 HP (368 kW) Limited Edition Audi RS3-R

    If you’re a regular on these pages, you’ll probably be familiar with the work of German tuner ABT Sportsline. Simply put, they are very good at taking a VW Group product and giving them more presence and performance.

     Previously they have taken the Audi RS3 up to 453 hp (338 kW) but this time, they have gone even further.

    Welcome the ABT RS3-R Sportback which is strictly limited to 200 units and will deliver a very potent 493 HP (368 kW).

    The Abt Power R performance upgrade and ECU work show how much headroom is in the engine and with this increase in output, the little Audi can sprint to 100 km/h in a radical 3.3 seconds (down from a claimed 3.8s).

    As you can see, there is some new eye candy on the car too in the form of a high gloss carbon aero kit, comprised of front lip and flics, rear spoiler, rear diffuser and mirror caps.

    Additional modifications include sportier suspension, a custom-built exhaust and 20-inch forged wheels.

    Inside you will find a host of ABT/RS3-R branding to show that this isn’t any bog-standard RS3 because “After all, such a potent engine wants to be brought to life in a manner befitting its status”

    There is no word on pricing yet but do not expect this to be cheap by any means.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
