I do like the new look with the LED lighs and the much more dynamic looking exterior..
especially the rear looks less "obese" than the old one

But the facelifted S-Class as well as the 7 Series are superior to this one

Fail. Its an overgrown A4. Interior is very nice, but I wouldn't spend $100K+ to drive an A4. Panamera please.

Love the interior but the rest is just so bland.

As much as it pains me, I'm with the Swedes on this one.

WTF, Audi?

I'm in agreement with everyone else. The Interior is gorgeous in true Audi fashion, but the exterior is gawd awful. I don't like the A4 as it is, this is just a stretched out and obese version of that. Looks very bland and ordinary. The sides are just a big flat piece of sheet metal..reminds me of a chrysler 300M. The D3 A8/S8 is much better looking....However, the BMW 7er is where it's at right now.

The exterior shape for the A8 is too boxy for me and the interior looks like it has alot of gadgets...soo confusing lets wait for the S8 Pics!!

Yup. . .the front and rear overhangs are really throwing me off.
