New Audi A8!
#41
I genuinely thought I would like this, but I don't. I love the interior, but the rear, front and sides look farking awful. And I'm not just saying that becuase I have the 4E.
Maybe it's because they based it completely on the new A4 which, in non-S or S-Line form, is ugly as shit.

Too bad as the current A8 ruled the German luxo barge segment until the new 7 came along. I bet they popped some bottles in Munchen after these pics were released.

steroids + A4 = A8
Love the interiour, but that´s clearly not enough for Audi's flagship's new generation. Two years ago my choice would have been the A8 without any doubts, nowaday's the 7er is far superior in every aspect. Quite disappointing, but hey, nothing lasts forever. "Vorsprung durch Technik"? Not really..

The jox mobile kills this ugly pig. The 4E has much crisper lines and looks more balanced, it has a tautness and subtle aggressiveness to it. Audi design at its best. The front on the new A8 is especially dreadful. And I actually prefer the 'old' interior - the new interior looks like an odd mix of styling cues borrowed from the S class (the curviness) and current A8 straight lines. Me no likey. Overall it's just plain boring.

I sat and drove the new 7 in Pheonix. Some aspect of the car dont make sense. 1) Why not make a new NON bangle design, rather then make it look like a reworked 7 with some Lexus elements in it? 2) if electronic drive by wire; What the F put the dumb shifter (for this car) on the center console- why not keep it on the column? Or something more original? 3) the fit and finish, ie the buttons and feel of the material doesn't say 'bench mark' luxo sedan.
I like the power; but it didn't scream bench mark to me. IMHO
