    Has anyone seen this interior on an RS3 before?
    I have never once seen an RS3 with this interier trim.

    Its likely in Europe is where you would see this interior trim. To my knowledge, no US Spec cars came in this trim as they all had the quilted seats.

    What is weird about the picture is the headrest.

    I'd also assume it's a European Spec. They look like S seats with RS slapped on the middle.

    It's a Canadian Car with 19k km on it which I'm having delivered on the 21st of this month.
    https://www.clutch.ca/vehicles/12755 <- here it is

    I've found some eBay ads with seats like that for sale claiming they are a rare BLACK EDITION variant of the RS3 seats.

    Both the driver and passenger seats are heated/adjustable as well.

    It's the comfort seat option. I believe they were a no-cost option for Canada.

    Thanks for letting me know, I test drove 2 rs3s before ordering this one and felt like the (stitched) seats might not hold up on long trips. Added bonus I have a significant other who I'll need to point out that I was thinking of her when I ordered this particular one 😁

    This interior was also an option for RS3's here in Australia, and the seats are electric compared to the sports seats being mainly manual. I much prefer the design of the sports seats and you do not see many with this option here in AUS as most choose the sports seats instead...
