Another hunchback German. Barf.

American manufacturers, please do not copy this idiotic trend (like Honda and Acura have.) Remember the Olds Cutlass fastback? Bad, bad, bad.

Agreed, I would love to have the scratch to get one, I beleive the S5 is coming in over the M3 in price though and (LMAO) the best line I've heard for Audi (well besides Another Useless Deutch Import) - Audi, BMW done right!

Not that I give much of a crap about cars like that, but this one is WAY better looking than the stupid Porsche Panamera.

I think I've seen those in Paris, but the rear end didn't look the same. It looked like an A5 platform.

I have been a very huge fan of Audi's styling the past number of years.

Audi sedans and coupes (yes, I'm ignoring the TT) have had near perfect proportions, just the right amount of style and class. Unlike BMW, Audi didn't go off experimenting with design, using the marketplace for trial and error. Audi knew when to drop the styling pencil and leave well enough alone.

I don't know what they're trying to do with this A7. The front looks like a regular Audi, but the body looks like they stole from Mazda. The reverse angle rear is about as removed from the rest of the design as you can get while still being attached to the same car.

I sincerly hope this isn't a new direction Audi's going in design.

If it is, Audi's era of good design is over.

Audi needs to rethink this. They have one of the best looking cars on the road right now with the A5/S5, this monstrosity will not work in North America.
