The fact that they're all good looking means people will be more inclined to buy them, whether or not they look like the more expensive/cheaper versions.

Wow. Imagine how well they'll do when the bloody crisis is gone.

This is what happens when you make cars that people actually want and reflect current market trends. Ontop of that add superior quality and reliability and you have a sure win. Again yet another example that the big 3 days are over.

Their strategy is working and people are starting to realised what a great brand it is. Those who say all models look similar, whatever....keep saying that and keep watching the sales rise.

@radmeister ... well said ! But seeing the market from the german side, i gotta say, we never saw gm, chrysler and ford as the big 3. the big 3 overhere are MB, BMW and Audi. You couldnt compare either one of those with GM or Chrysler products. But i dont think Americans have yet understood what quality and highly technological cars are about ... it will still take them a while to get back on track in my opinion.
@Motor_Yakuza Audis design language especially with he single frame and the awesome taillight design isnt older than 3-4 years .. so why change it ?? Everybody is copying it anyways .. look at LED-datimerunning lights on the new EClass or LED taillights in the SCLass or 7series.

Exactly, a design language should not live more then 4-5 yeas, and when people start coping you, u have to come with something new, because you will be lost in the pack if you don't, oh and the real big tree now are Honda, Toyota and Nissan.

Wow, the CC must be like a minor thing for Audi. Those cars with the big grill are making sales. Gotta admit pretty much all of their designs have grown on me.

No motor_yakuza, you'll find the big three are currently Toyota, GM and Volkswagen. Have always liked Audi's, good to see good cars are getting the sales they deserve.

Good news, I like to think if it wasn't for my new A3 Sportback being delivered in December, it would have been 999,999 lol. Just doing my bit for the economy. Great cars, I'm now waiting patiently for the A5 Cabriolet to be launched in the UK...

The beardy grilles are quite different on each Audi model, even for the old A4 in comparison to the new A4.
