lol your favourites are like mine.. Zonda is the best.. and z8 is hot.. but i actually like the W221 interior.. but lets say that you hate it.. but other MB interiors are damn nice like the SL,CL,E and especially the CLS.. so i think he will design some real nice interiors for AUDI..they allready have the quality..if they nail the design.. it will be awesomme imo..

Imhotep Evil · 12-06-2005, 02:10 PM

Yep, I'm with you on the CLS.
And I never sad I do not like the W221 interior, it's just that it's not original, that's why I sad it maked me sick.

Ahaa allright then... i understand.. But once again i belive this will be good for Audi..

*sigh* yet again more talent leaving MB.

This isn't the same guy that MB poached from Audi in the first place is it?

In this position he will report to the Chief Designer of the AUDI group , Walter de'Silva.

I doubt very much that he designed the W221 interior. If you see his past work at Audi it's not his style really. I thought that Mercedes cooperated with B&O for the design of the W221.

Hypersonic · 12-09-2005, 05:49 AM

What the hell are you guys on about - he is responsible for the current direction of Audi's interiors - he also worked on the A8's interior with Norbert Schneider, Mark Berglund and Enzo Rothfuss.

DCX poached him and he influenced the final stages of the W221, the design was already underway when Sielaff was brought in - quite frankly, his influence is the only thing that is nice about the new S class's interior.

Also B&O are working with Audi not Mercedes-Benz.
