I agree, Audi know what they are doing with their new design, if anything it's not radical enough to keep up with BMW though.

This time around I gave serious thought to an a4 or a6, but I can't get past the lack of rwd.
Even the Audi bashers who have driven the new RS4 are praising it though, and these are BMW RWD boys through and through. I think with a 60:40 split in power makes alot of difference, plus they have moved the engine back for far better weight distibution too.
I love Audis and the design, but the actual drive leaves alot to be desired, but this thing is meant to be in a different league to previous cars and is also the way Audi are heading too.

I also think the single frame grille is great, but only on the darker colours really, but looks vey agressive compared to the old model.

I think the avant looks great for what is basically a run out model of a 6 year old car.....

First thing you notice when you see it is just how wide it is...


I guess this is what you will be seeing most of the time...


And I think the Grille looks great....

gIzzE,

Thanks for the pics. The avant looks pretty good from those angles, but do you have any shots from the side?

No!

I only managed to get one shot from the side without some arse walking in front of me and that came out really blurry.
