Clean lookin car. I've always admired the clean lines and classy looks of Audi's. The only thing I don't like is the rear...It looks like it was just slapped on at the last minute. However, the interior is absolutely gorgeous. Good job Audi, and props to the lead designer!

Not feeling the headlights.... It works on the A4 but not here.... and the rear end looks more like entry level than flagship.... SORRY AUDI... Interior wise I could do without the "whatever" material they put in the dash....

Big, boring, and too many buttons in the interior for me.......and the headlights are different, but don't work imo. Average big lux sedan.........

The new 7 series and S class are really ugly, imho. I've been in a 2008 S600, and it is a very nice car with an amazing turning radius for something so large, but I just can't get over the external styling. If I was in the market for a car like this, the A8 would appeal to me stylistically and has the European "je ne s'ais pas", but I'd drive an Infiniti M45 and Lexus LS first.

I don't know. its beautiful but its softer looking overall than the current gen. the current one had wow factor, this one is just good looking.

I think its something I'd need to see in person, but it doesn't standout from the rest of the lineup. So far it just seems like a swelled up B9 (current generation) A4.
Nice lil HP bump in the V8, wonder if it will trickle around to the R8, A6, and S5. |

i like it. obviously if you do not like big cars, the thing could look like giselle and you won't like it, so...
best part, the TDi badge. |

I love the A8 line, can't wait to see these in person. They are the one 'big' car that I like.

An S8 would be a fantastic road trip car! Though, actually, I'd probably go for an S6 Avant. More room, and all. Still... every time I see an A/S8, I smile - they are beautiful, imposing cars, without being obnoxious or self-righteous. |

I don't know, I generally like understated, classical looking cars, but for their flagship I wonder if they needed a little more flair, a little more distinction from their smaller models. As is, it looks too much like a bigger version of the A4/A6. Interior is the usual Audi nice though.

^^Agreed; looks a little too much like an A6 for my taste. MB E and S class are the same way though.
