I`ve got the same impression, a poor copy of lamborghini estoque

I have to agree that it looks terrible. But if your isolate the headlights, they are good.

must add that I think the interior looks stale, especially with that kind of woodtrim, which has a dull look. Nothing close to the interior of the Z4, which is so modern and refreshing - especially in white.

Why would you compare a Z4 to an A7? One is a concept car and the other is a production car and why would you compare 2 cars of totally diff categories? And s2k_turbo, to answer your Q Audi and Lambo share similar design cues because they are of the same company! Come on guys.

this is beautiful... i must say this has much smoother lines than the CLS... especially comparing the front of the CLS to this ride. i do love the CLS, but this is very nice, NOT awful

I agree. I'd take this over the CLS.
Audi has the best interiors in the business. (I don't see how this could be considered to have been inspired by any BMW model.)

This is just gorgeous! Awesome job by Audi, that tail reminds me of some great cars from the past. CLS was (and still is) striking, but let's give Audi the kudos it deserves for creating such a beautiful concept!

I'm liking it it's very unique and i think this will be a big thing for audi but i do think it needs more of a powerplant. the interior is a very pleasant place which i'm sure will look even better by the time we see a production model.

the back needs changing, especially the rear lights, but the front is spot on.

Dont like it. And I'm a big Audi enthusiast. The CLS is definitely better executed, I don't like the Panamera-ish behind. The interior is weak, very BMW looking

That interior is beautiful. I can see some new BMW Z4 in it but that must be coincidence.

good concept, the interior is too practical to be a concept. they shouldve used more imagination to create it instead of having the practical items

i wonder what the production model will look like. i think the CLS definitely looks better (and i say that as an Audi owner) but the CLS has also dated very quickly...

Wow, that looks nothing like any of the Audi line ups. Great concept, wonder what the production version would look like.

a hint of Lamborghini Estoque maybe? Not an Audi fan, but it looks ok.

I love it. The design is nicely executed and the interior is nice. Now let's see the new CLS.

I have to continually tell myself that this is a *CONCEPT* car, *PREVIEWING* desing direction. I imagine the real vehicle will be toned down for a more centrist approach. That in mind, I hope the tail end of the car is re-styled, as it looks a bit sad and droopy - and no-one likes a droopy butt. If the trailing edge of the rear decklid is brought up about three inches, it may look more aggressive and sporting...

It isn't Bangle-bad, but it just doesn't look right. It has a "fishy" looking presence and wierd proportions. It does droop hear and there.

I'm not awestricken by the design of the car but by the measure of loud noise they made before the Detroit show on this car. Is this it? Where's the rest?
January 12, 2009 3:50 am
I think this is a very fresh design! Front looks good and the back looks good too! The rear LED lights are just awesome.
Makes the competition looks dated!

In my opinion it is a little bit of a design of the future. We only have to get accustomed with the new line of design. I think this is the way the production model will look like, except those wheels. I love the way this car looks.

WOW! This is effin hot! This is the best four-door coupe on the market, the only comer is the Aston Martin. The Panamera is an ugle b*&ch and the Lambo looks like a parts bin, while the CLS is dated and looked like a Cadillac Seville (remember those) from the start. This is fresh, with a hint of some classics from the 30's, like raypall suggested. Very spot on!!! SWEEET!!!
