Default x-post from A4 forum. If anyone is interested in seeing some decent pics of the new A4.

This is from a while back, but I just found it. Jason H posted this back in January along with a write up. Personally, I'm still trying to decide if I like the new body style.

Sorry if this has been posted here before. I thought some of you would be slightly interested in it.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/forum/m/a4/msgs/417353.phtml">https://www.audiworld.com/forum/m/a4/msgs/417353.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Hideoous!!! What happened to the center navigation unit, obviously they left

it in the dash. Very dissapointed in what only appears to be cosmetic changes. I would venture to say they are using the same platform only they chagned the dimensions. Further more that steering wheels does not speak well of "Sporty" attitude Audi has maintained through the years. I hope that you can option some of this car out to be what we have come to expect form Audi. This is the wrong direction and I can say that I would not purchase this vehicle based on what I see in these pictures. I'll keep the one I have got.

Default agreed. I am dissapointed in the direction of the A4 line

I think it is possible to excel your line of cars towards a more luxourious(spelling?) level without compromising the attitude of the current car. The a6 should be conventional with a little sport attititude. The A4 should scream fun not conformity. The steering wheel is hideous. I now like the look of the exterior but not if the interior is gonna look like that. Maybe my next car will be the e46 (which in my opinion is awe inspiring visually exterior)

Of course my "next" car is the S4 since i am getting it in 46hrs.

Default Just curious. Which Japanese car are you talking about?

It looks more like a BMW dash to me.

Which is kinda funny when you think about it.............
