Default yeah but...

IMHO from an exterior styling standpoint the B8 is the first improvement since the B5. The B6 and B7 did nothing for me.

By the way, I'm keeping the B5 too.

Default B8 seats in a B5 ? . . . that sounds sexy to me . . .

And I like sexy.


As for the exterior, I agree that the B6 and B7 exterior body styles are kinda poo in nature. I'm on the fence with the B8 exterior due to it looking A LOT like a BMW. I haven't made up my mind if that's a good thing or not yet.

What bothers me most about the B8 interior is the "vestigial" wood trim at the glove box. It has a strong "tacked-on" appearance. Looks like something from Acura.

Default For what it was at the time it wasn't half bad...

I had the 2 liter 4 cylinder and by today's standards it was pretty slow, but it handled well and was fun to drive.

Default You're probably right...

In many decades from now Audi may actually release a B58.
