In this episode of Mighty Car Mods, the team delves into the world of high-performance hatchbacks, aiming to prove that you don't need to spend a fortune on a supercar to experience mind-blowing speed. They argue that while supercars may offer blistering acceleration, they often lack versatility and practicality. With their extensive experience in building fast cars, the team showcases their favorite platform for this endeavor: the Audi RS3.

The Audi RS3, affectionately referred to as a "Golf with an Audi badge," packs a punch under the hood. Its 2.5L inline 5-cylinder engine churns out a hefty 400 horsepower, propelling the car from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds. This performance is further enhanced by the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, ensuring a thrilling driving experience. The team acknowledges that the RS3 may be covered in Volkswagen logos, but it's the engine that sets it apart from its Golf R sibling.

When it comes to choosing the right RS3, the team recommends focusing on the 2017-2018 models. These offer a sweet spot in terms of cost and performance, with prices ranging between $70,000 and $80,000. They note that the recent release of the new generation RS3 has driven up the prices of the previous models, making them a desirable option for those seeking a high-performance hatchback without breaking the bank. While the team acknowledges that some enthusiasts prefer modifying their RS3s for maximum speed, they also emphasize that not everyone wants to go down that route.
