Green Audi RS 3 Rental Los Angeles

It costs less than a hundred and eighty dollars a day and it will beat almost everything else in this issue to sixty.

The RS 3 keeps the five-cylinder engine Audi has been building since the Quattro — 401 horsepower, an offbeat five-cylinder noise nobody else can make, all-wheel drive and a rear axle that can send everything to one wheel. In a colour that makes no attempt to hide any of it.

01From the side it is still a compact saloon, which is exactly the joke. The arches are wider than the doors and almost nobody notices.

Five cylinders is an odd number in every sense. The firing order gives it a beat no four or six can produce, which is why Audi has kept the layout alive for forty years after everyone else abandoned it — and why people who could not tell you what an RS 3 is will still turn around when one goes past.

The rest is quietly serious. Sixty arrives in three and a half seconds. The rear differential can put all of its torque through one wheel, which is how a car this shape gets round a corner faster than it has any business doing. And it still has five seats and a boot.

Nobody else builds five cylinders.
One block away, everybody knows.
