Now is this good or bad..

Yo, today i was standing in a line to turn, and in front of me..maybe 30 metres there was this big phat Audi also waiting to turn. It was white, big, wide, low, with xenons...looke lika a A8 at first...but then I looked again...hmm... is it a A6?...and then I looked again... I mean... ME! I really know much about Audi... and I couldn't tell a difference what car it was. Sure it was raining and it was bad weather..but still... When the car turned it was the A6. Hmm... now the question is...is it good or bad for Audi to have such alike models?

Re: Now is this good or bad..

Bad, in my honest opinion...: All Audis are very nice (except the A2 though), but they're almost the same in terms of design, no big difference and that's the only bad thing by Audi, imo...

Yes I think they are very beautiful too.
But I have to agree that a little more difference between them wouldn't hurt...

Re: Now is this good or bad..

I think it's not really good...I addore almost all Audi's (especially A6, RS4) and they are nice but there should be some more difference between the models in the future!

Re: Now is this good or bad..

I agree, the A8 and A6 are very similar to each other especially from the front, and when the A8 got the new grill now i really cant see the diff. between them when they drive by. another thing is that the A6 is approx. the same size as the SWB A8. so i think they must do something abt this.

And not only the fronts.

I really LOVE their Avants, but deep down in my heart I think that the A3 Sportback, A4 Avant, and A6 Avant are too alike.





The difference should be more like with their rears of the Sedan models. They all look good, AND different:

This is my biggest problem with Audi.

Don't get me wrong, the models look very nice, but the are almost exactly the same.
A3 sportback, A4 Avant or A6 Avant; when one of those is around 200 m in fromt of me I have to guess what model it is by it's size....it's too hard to see it otherwise. Same with the sedan models, minus the A4.

But, I have to say, I sometimes have the same with BMW.
I just saw the coolest 5er BMW, and only realised it was a new 3er when I was really close
