I rather like the A7 which is odd as I'm rather rude about most of Audis products. Maybe I'm just a closet BL fan.

I think the A7 looks great! In the same way I thought the Merc CLS is was fantastic when it was new.....I'm appreciate a car that's been 'designed'....rather than 'ended up with'...

The Princess is better looking, imo...

The Audi is an amorphous blob...

I saw one of these up close last night.

I hate to admit it but you're on to something there...

fixed that. Design is so much more than what the outside looks like.

I reckon it looks a bit sad, like the Seat Altea XL:




Or like Marvin the robot.

Still, the best-looking Audi, which is not saying a lot IMHO.

That looks like the clay model got a bit too warm and the rear window/boot has sagged into it's current position when it melted.

Audi A5/A6/A7 who cares?

Bland slabs of automotive dullness, most in white with a boggo 2.0 TDi

Arguably better looking than the BMW equivalents, most of which also come with a boggo 2.0 TDI. Or maybe a 1.8d.
