2017 Audi S3 2.0 TFSI Premium Plus

Vehicle Description

This is not your average A3. This S3 is the performance-infused, tech-laden, luxury-sculpted all-wheel-drive machine that lives in the sweet spot between daily livability and full send performance. Finished in the extremely rare and eye-catching Sepang Blue Pearl Effect over black leather interior with 19” Audi Sport 5-Arm Wing Design Wheels, this spec looks like it just rolled out of Audi's top secret S-line dream lab. This is a California-owned, clean Carfax, 1-owner unit with zero accidents, zero blemishes, zero drama. That history alone separates it from the bulk of these S3s on the market—no East Coast corrosion, no auction chain backstory, and no low-tier ownership. West Coast, personal-use only vehicles with perfect history like this are the ones that retain value, full stop.

Under the hood is the legendary EA888 2.0L TFSI inline-4 turbo, pushing out a conservative 292 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque through the lightning-fast 6-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmission. The gear shifts are instantaneous and razor-sharp, perfectly tuned for spirited canyon driving or urban maneuvering. The Quattro all-wheel-drive system is a massive differentiator here—this isn’t the part-time haldex of the A3, this is Audi’s full-time rally-bred tech that distributes power with surgical precision. The Dynamic Package elevates it to the next tier with Magnetic Ride suspension and red S brake calipers that not only sharpen the handling but also visually mark this car as something special. Those mag-ride dampers are adjustable on the fly, giving you the ability to tighten things up for aggressive driving or soften the ride for daily commuting. This car bridges the gap between a sport sedan and a track-day weapon.

The Technology Package is crucial for long-term value and usability, and this example has it. That means Audi’s Virtual Cockpit, a fully digital gauge cluster that transforms into a Google Earth navigation display, performance gauges, or classic tach and speedo—all in one. It also includes the MMI Navigation Plus system with touchpad input, Audi Connect, and Bluetooth Audio streaming with voice control. The difference in driving an S3 with the Technology Package versus one without is night and day. It modernizes the entire cockpit and future-proofs your investment. Throw in parking sensors front and rear, a rearview camera, and Audi side assist (blind spot monitoring), and this car checks the safety and driver assistance boxes most performance sedans forget.

Inside, the Premium Plus trim means heated Nappa leather sport seats, aluminum trim inlays, and the iconic flat-bottom S steering wheel, which comes wrapped in perforated leather with paddle shifters. The layout is clean and modern—no gimmicky chrome or fake carbon here. The Bang & Olufsen premium sound system is crystal clear with a deep low-end and wide staging, one of the better OEM systems in the segment. Dual-zone automatic climate control, keyless entry with push-button start, and LED ambient lighting all make this cockpit feel like a much newer car than its model year. The attention to detail inside an S3 is significantly higher than most sedans in this price bracket.

On the outside, the full LED lighting system—headlights, taillights, and daytime running lights—offers clean, crisp visibility with unmistakable Audi signature styling. The black optic exterior trim and subtle rear deck spoiler give it an aggressive edge without going full boy-racer. And those 19” Audi Sport wheels are the exact right choice. Not only are they lightweight and forged for performance, they completely change the profile of the S3 and signal that this isn’t a base-level spec. Matched with newer tires and a clean brake setup, this car is sorted and dialed. The quad-tipped sport exhaust has the right amount of rasp and pop on downshifts without sounding obnoxious, and it's factory-tuned—not some aftermarket mess.

Bottom line—this is a rarely seen, enthusiast-owned, perfectly spec’d S3 with both the Dynamic and Technology Packages, in one of Audi’s best colors, with the most important thing: a clean, one-owner California history. This car lives in the space between a Golf R and an RS3 in the performance hierarchy, and it nails it with better refinement, balance, and subtle presence.
