Looks like someone compressed it.

DocWeatherington · 02-27-2015, 01:23 AM

I need better photos.. can't say I am a fan of the outside..

///MCFC · 02-27-2015, 10:28 AM

rear looks great. otherwise, no.

Looks and sounds fantastic in the flesh. Those computer generated pics look weird for some reason.

You know I almost posted the same thing yesterday. In that silver color it definitely reminds me of the Clio.

I like it.

First pics did have that Dire Straits video look.
KOJ used that description a ways back on another car. Jag coupe, I believe.

Still a great offering for comfortable everyday use.
In a heartbeat for myself.

Those saying Huracan instead.
Well, yeah.
Just toss in several more large bags full of cash...

I do not like it at all. They should have kept the side blades, that was the R8s signature visual feature.

Where is Dire Straits?

I don't understand why the Lambo does 0-60 in 2.6 seconds and this is 3.3 when they both have AWD, both have dual clutch, both have launch control. We'll have to see actual numbers later.

I really like it. Everyone who says it's interior is too busy...., shit I've seen MUCH worse. Busy is the new Mustang interior.

I don't know how extravagant you need to get with a new gen. The changes might not be huge, but they are subtle enough to be noticed. For what you would pay, I would definitely buy something else, but I still think it's a great product by Audi.
