The difference is Audi will probably put a higher price tag on the S3 because its an "Audi." Even tho same parts are used on both vehicles, as VW owns Audi.

Since we know that the initial S3 will be DSG only, I'm ignoring it, just like the CLA45, but if the R comes with a manual, at least as an option (hopefully they learned their lesson with the Mk5), it will get considered along with a 228i, especially if the rumors of a sub 3k pound weight prove to be true.
