So Audi now make a car for every market, even ones that no-one has thought of.

Give it 10 years until they are "paring down" their range as it is over-complicated and the individual models don't sell well.  :stupid:

I've always quite like the A7 as it didn't look like the A456..............

The big Quattro lettering in the grille is an epic fail...

Doesn't look particularly  special.

RS5 on the other hand looks stunning!

Hmm.... Looks a bit of a barge, IMO.

I much prefer the Avant versions of Audi's.

That 'quattro' grill badge is going to get nastily clogged up.

I like the interior though and it's interesting that Audi have repositioned the Nav etc screen in the driver's sight line (like on mine).

So i seem to be the only one who likes this? Lve the rear on it, looks like an Aventador! Although admittedly im not a huge fan of saloons, id go for the RS6 Avant that has the same power! A family wagon capable of embarrasing supercars, yes please!

....It will still look like a barge though. Or perhaps a cross-Channel hovercraft..............  In my opinion. Mind you I don't like the looks of the Audi 5-series anyway.

An 8 speed box  :signLOL: in a few years time there will be 10-15 speed boxes!!!

Not sure how big these are inside, but they gave me a A5 cabrio courtesy car recently and it's interior and boot were smaller than my S3 which doesn't make any sense  :confused:

Not convinced by the looks, considering it will replace the RS6 saloon..

I thought the A7 replaced the A8.. could be wrong.
