i have noticed this for far to long just have never posted anything about it. but its straight up embarressing
look at the fog light grills to the headlights to the new grill. its like the audi took the hyundai and just made everything bigger
looks exactly the same so ghey prly should post this in gen car talk

I noticed this awhile back also. I think Audi made a huge mistake by changing the styling like this. maby it will grow on me, i mean i used to hate the b6 style now i love it.

Yeah, when I saw pics of the new A6s in magazines I thought it was kinda nasty. But since then, I've seen a few on the roads and am really coming around to them...they look sharp in person. Have a feeling it will be the same with the B7.

why not compare the 2??? its obvious audi took 2 huge steps backward by releasing the b7. hell, for the money and the damn warranty i would take the hyundai over the b7.... and that should sum up just exactly how i feel about the b7... its NASTY

Want to make the same comparison with the Mazda 3?

A lot of cars share similar design elements, that's not really anything to be surprised about. That said, the Hyundai's ugly as hell, while Audi actually has a decent sense of design.
