Anyone else think the 2009 A4/S4 (see AW front page) looks a little Bangled?

I keep looking at it, and trying to figure out what bothers me about it. The A5 uses a lot of the same shaping, but on the sedan, it ends up looking odd. It does seem that Audi is adopting some Bangle/BMW styling cues. The proportions look good (you can actually "see" a better weight distribution), so maybe it's just a car that you need to see in person.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/news/07/audi-b8-a4-sneak-peek/header.jpg">2009 A4</a></li></ul>

Default Whoa! AW has a front page?
They just took the A5 design and added 2 doors.

I like all of the techy stuff(engine placement/40:60) but i am not crazy about the design at all...

It looks like a cross between a B7 and Chris Bangle. Skip. I"ll get an S5 instead
