maybe? i like my car more than a b8, although the b8 is a step up from the b7 overall.

The B8's are nice but I love the 6MT in my B7 Avant.

Should clarify I meant appearance only, the b8 is obviously an upgrade mechanics wise.

i thought my b7's interior was hideous compared to an 07 infiniti g35's interior.

their seats are so much better, along with technology included.

too bad the quattro trumps everything else and that was my #1 priority ** having the quattro

Interior B7 < B8
Exterior B7 > B8

As it stands, I will not be getting a newer Audi unless it's an A5/S5/RS5, cause all the other "new" designs are bad and getting worse...

agreed.

X2, except for the dash. I'm still not a fan of the flat dash from the A6\A8.

This just makes me laugh. You must really be a fan of cheap plastic.

agreed. I purposely bought a b7 as I liked the body styling better then a b6 or b8.

the electronic parking break

I hated the electronic parking brake on the B8 I had when I was living in Germany. (S-Line 2009)
How are you supposed to do handbrake turns!? [evilsmile]

I know I am going to sound very biased but the B7 Avant is SO much better looking than the B7 or B8 sedan! IMO, both sedan rear ends are a bit too soft (read cowardly) or at least less than masculine (read femanine) looking :-p ....and I say this while driving a soccer mom station wagon (I prefer sport wagon)! Another observation: when I first saw profile pics of the B8 sedan I thought, "why does the back half of the car look like it's 2/3 the scale of the front half? Serious, check it out!

Lol this ^
I love the interior of our cars, my buddy has a B8 though and the interior is pretty flush.. Except the exterior looks like SHIT. Completely stock, Even modded, I think our cars look better than a modded b8. my .02

I think A4's peaked with the B7, and don't like the B8 as much at all...

Well put...totally with you on that. Too bad the RS5 won't be hitting the US market until late 2012. [:(]

Honestly guys, our b7 has better lines and doesn't have the girly pizaz of the leds. Sorry to hate a little, but the twinkle lights are too much. If you have to get gaudy with drls, in my opinion angel eyes look better.

okay..so i own a B7 but had a B8 for 14 days as a loaner. What I can say after driving that car for a while is that it was nice to be back in my B7. I loved the display with the satellite radio and bluetooth which was pretty cool but other than that the interior for some reason just felt cheaper. The material used wasn't the same quality as the B7.

One thing i didn't like is that you couldn't hear the engine or exhaust noise at all inside. The B7 has that nice sound IMO while the B8 kinda felt like a Lexus. Anyways a nice car nonetheless but I'll be sticking to my B7.

To each his own, but I think the B6 is better looking than the B7 & B8. I own a B6 USP and I purposely bought a B6 because I think it's the best looking A4....but, like I said, to each his own.....

Huh? Unless you have exhaust or something I don't hear much engine or exhaust noise in my B7 other than a diesel like sound...the car does not sound good stock at all

It`s sad to say, but I honestly think the exterior of the B6 is way more elegant than the newer models. Classic, clean lines. The B7 is a pimped B6, and the B8...looks sedate (with headlights on speed)

Honestly imo the only other audi's i really like besides my b7 are the s3's and s2 from back in the day the 20v 5cyl monsters. I still wanna get one here in the US...

To say it does not sound good is your opinion but i think its decent.
