    I’m just gonna say it, as an owner of a volkswagen: So, it’s an Audi A7 with all the costs associated with owning an Audi A7 including traditionally high German repair and service costs, But without any of the cool associated with owning an Audi.

    And people wonder why VW is struggling in the U.S.

    It’s a gorgeous car. But even if it’s only half the initial cost of an Audi A7, it’s still gonna cost just as much to maintain. Soooo... yay, I guess."

    It has a virtual cockpit? Impressive. I don't know why VW and Audi think these side vents are a great addition to the newer model lines though. I think they look cheap.

    To me it looks like an evolution of the passat CC, which was first in the market with the CLS for this type of 5 doors coupe.

    Isn't the A7 that looks like it then? Hehe.

    The rear end is identical to the CC, alot of that car is reminiscent of the CC. And with only the 2.0T option it just falls flat. Put the VR in it with 4Motion and DSG that'd make it so much better.
