She has decided to put one on 200 pc to bring a limited special series of the RS3 sedan to the market, which bears the name ABT RS3-R Limited Edition hears. We would like to present this extraordinary vehicle to you today.

The most important changes to the ABT RS3-R are, in addition to ABT Lowering springs, which push the vehicle 25 millimeters closer to the asphalt 20-inch alloy wheelsthat on the model name High performance HR20 Listen. You can even add one as an option ABT coilover suspension order with various setting options, which optimizes the driving behavior again.
Regardless of the choice of chassis, however, are special ABT damper, which should make the RS 3 more suitable for the race track. In addition to various changes to the chassis, of course, the optics don't fall short.

It includes a new one front lip, additional Trim front, modified fender as well as a redesigned one rear apron. Furthermore, the stainless steel tailpipes of the exhaust system finished in matte black.
Specially designed interior
Im Cockpit ABT also made some changes to set the special model apart from the starting point. ABT floor mats, ABT door panels and a modified one start button found their way into the RS 3. Before boarding, however, the passengers are already greeted by special ABT entry lights greeted, which turn on after opening the doors. This is joined by one plaque with serial number, because this vehicle will only be available 200 times.
