Yea RS4 is hotter, and faster than M3. Also A8 is much hotter than 7 series, oh and 6 series lovers, I wouldn’t talk too much cause that car looks like crap, M6 looks good but 645 is weak ESPECIALLY the interior!!! And Audi will make an S5 with 420-435 hp Gallardo V-10, and RS5 with 450-500hp based on same engine. All Audi’s are beautiful and thats that.

There will definitely be an Audi of some kind in my garage. I’m not 100% on what model yet, but it’s not important at this time. Oh yes, consider my words to be carved in stone.

Oh and I’m absolutely psyched about my new career with Audi. Yea yea I’m biased, so sue me. =D

This will be the first Audi built on the new modular platform that will be the basis for the future a4/a5/a6/a7?/a8. Look for better weight distribution and many other improvements. Might be shown an this year’s Paris autoshow. A 3.2 liter 275 hp and a 4.2 liter 350 hp engines will be definately used.

Anon, please don’t be one of those posters who swoops into a discussion and declares everyone an idiot.

This is a 70K a set of wheels. Of course it’s beautiful. No one is disputing that. What was under discussion was whether Audi was using too much of the SAME kind of beauty on a luxury car line that costs a heck of a lot of money.

well, the designs for the a7 and a5 haven’t been shown yet. only artist renderings. so yes, they may be dry, but they aren’t accurate either.

This goes beyond the grilles being the same. Audi corporate design is creating a “mexican food effect” where the ingredients are the too much the same on the upcoming models. Take a look at the designs for A7, A5. It’s getting a bit dry.

Hey, LLN changed the article – it first said “similar offerings to A4″ and after my post they changed it to “A6″.

I agree with AF, the audis are starting to look too much alike. But in terms of sheer design beauty, A5 won’t be nowhere close to 6-Series.

I dont mind that audis look alike, I think they look beautiful, way smoother lines than the bmws bangle design. the audis interior is also more classical, whereas the bmw looks like it was put together by a finnish furniture designer. not that its a bad thing, i own both, both great. But in my opinion, in 10 years bmws will look played out whereas audis retain a classic look. look at the old S8. beautiful car. This big coupe will certainly be astonishing, and with that said, lets wait til this car is actually produced to say whether its hot or not.

Audi�s new Q5 SUV

�Better late than never�. That is quite true for Audi in terms of their SUV entry. The Q5 will join the Audi Q7 as the company�s ultra-late entries in the SUV segment.

ummmm, the article says “The 2008 Audi A5 will be a large coupe with similar engine offerings to the A6.”

By: Jon

Jon — Fri, 26 May 2006 20:20:27 +0000

Af,

That’s the point. They all wear the same corporate grill, like BMW’s all have the double kidney grill, so does every Audi now wear the shield grill.

I love Audi’s designs, but these new cars are starting to look the same from them. BMWs look a bit more different from each other.

the A5 with the similar A4 engine might be more affordable. I think the S5 and the RS5 are the ones that will compete with the 6 and m6

By: Jon

Jon — Fri, 26 May 2006 19:30:40 +0000

Gsh,

Anything looks better than the 6.

And, I bet it weighs more than the A4, too.

Similar engine offerings to A4?! They’ll need much more than that to compete with the 6-Series!
