Romain18 ◊ 2007-04-10 17:09	Yes but where is the front side marker? I can't see any amber light.
antp ◊ 2007-04-10 18:21	This is strange indeed... Maybe that the car was shipped from Europe as product placement, used on movie set only? But why would they have done that rather than take a "local" car
walter ◊ 2007-04-10 18:56	Maybe is one of the first A3 in the USA, without the front side marker. But is better list it only A3
Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2007-04-10 19:42	Can we get a shot of the back of the car? US models of the A3 have the number plate recess reshaped to suit American plates.

antp ◊ 2007-04-11 00:05	walter >> but to be US-specs it has to comply to US laws, so it has to have the side marker, no?
wickey ◊ 2007-04-11 01:43	nope, we can't
walter ◊ 2007-04-11 17:37	But look, for example, the A3 from "Transporter 2".That's a US A3 but she haven't got the front side marker like this model.

antp ◊ 2007-04-11 23:23	walter > that's confusing Maybe we could call all the sportback "sportback"?
