Nope. It was redone for 2014. Won't see a new one until 2017 at the earliest. Same with the 5 series.

From Wikipedia:

C4 1994-1997
C5 1997-2004
C6 2004-2011
C7 2011-

If Audi sticks to 7-year cycle, C8 will debut in 2018 arriving North America in fall. There will be a mid-cycle facelift likely in fall 2014.

From Wikipedia, BMW 5 series has a 7-9 year cycle, the last E60 is 7-year.

Yea, ok. Psft! F10. Ppuuuuuuuuullllleeeeeez

That thing is worst than a box of marbles. And this is the one when BMW began to make them sterile. When the slogan changed from "ultimate driving machine" to "joy" - I'm not kidding btw

E39 has a great engine, E34 is too old. The beat mix of technology, performance and build quality is the E60/61. Of course this is my opinion. The 528 with the 3.0L is bulletproof.

Thats your opinion, and you're entitled. The E60 is the worst and the only one I wouldn't own. Thats my opinion.

The E34 and E39 are the true sport sedans, the F10 are the hot rods, and the E60 are the losers in the middle with the ****ty V8s (and torqueless V10) and ugly styling.

Who cares about torque when it produces over 100 more hp while only weighing 2 pounds more? The E60 M5 was capable of breaking 200mph. Such a POS.

Who's gonna break 200? Torque is what you drive on the street. Oh wait, I forgot, the SMG is so clunky and horrible that nobody wants to drive one on the street.

This back and forth over which BMW was the best has no relevance to the original thread topic (or the A6 C7 forum for that matter). Let's try and stick to at least some semblance of the thread subject.
Thanks.
