I've never been excited about Audi cars before. But this one looks nice. I'm contemplating either ditching the M5 for a used 911 TS, Macan (for work related reasons) and now possibly an Audi.

Its got a mean look to it. I think our F90's are aggressive but they still carry alot of the standard 5 series queues. I know the Sportback is a polarizing piece but I drinking the Kool Aide at this point.

Me, too ... as long as I can take the RS7 every day next week.

Joking aside: I'm not sure how you can have such a strong opinion having never driven the new RS7. Sure, there's a culture and there are trends in the way manufacturers build cars that cause us all to pre-judge (steering on the Audis being a gripe for most) but, still, it's brand new; it looks awesome (to me at least... well, and apparently to Vic and 1.2 million others) and the tech seems up to snuff. I'll wait until I drive it to pass a final verdict but I strongly suspect it'll be on my driveway within a year of its launch.

I agree as well... I like change hence over 35 cars in 10 years and Im ok if the RS7 is even just a bit slower. And then Ill probably be back in a Benz (Im only talking sedans here)

I will say this, the M5 is now the longest lasting sedan (14 months) in my stable of prior sedans since my RS7. Irony?

I don't like the shape. I'm not a fan of the fastback/hatchback look at all. Wifey wanted a Panamera forever and I wouldn't let her have it! NO NO NO

It's an Audi and I'll only look with one eye. It's like an ex girlfriend.
You're friends see her and say "bro, there is your ex. She's looking hot man!" I will of course want to look but I'll be squinting and looking for the flaws.. haha "na, she looks alright I guess" lol

I leased an A4 convertible for one my employees a few years back. After I had let him go the lease was about up so I took the car to get it cleaned up and washed and I was in shock at what a piece of junk that car was and how many things were broken inside. I swore I would never buy an Audi. I realize that was the bottom of the lineup car but still. And like I said.... I'm really not a fan of the fastback look. The closest I ever got to that style was my DBS but it was a 2 door so it was ok

But, I'll take yours out for a night when you get it just to make sure :P

Does anybody know when the new RS6 Avant should be on sale? Can't seem to find a clear answer. Hoping the 6 and 7 are both at the LA auto show this month

That's a bit a drive! Speaking of driving in WA. I was recently in Wenatchee. That's a nice drive through the mountains from Seattle!

Yes it is! Lots of beautiful countryside and other natural spectacles around here... along with a volcano that's biding its time.
