I like that baby!!!! :love:
Guys, is there any pictures of black S4 B8 in high resolution, like 1600 x 1200 (http://www.desktopmachine.com/framepic.php?id=10100&size=1600)? :rs4kiss:
Thanks

what is up, with the new doorhandles, it makes the car look cheap, and i dont get it, why not have doors handles that are flush with car.

[Leadfoot]

Look at all of the new Audis that have come out in the last couple of years have these door handles, the Q7 and the A5. They are different but I wouldn't call them cheap looking.

[Damienr8]

I hope to god that the B8 A4 does not look like a 4 door A5.

[AndyBG]

Why do you guys have such a big problem with posibility for new A4 to look very similar to A5... :confused:

Audi is bringing A5 as A4 derivated coupe, and that is something that waited for many years now, and it's it is same as BMWs strategy with 3 series...

I like new A5, and I hope that new A4 will look just as it looks at these pic's... !

:cheers:

Guys, I agree with AndyBG (http://www.rs6.com/forum/member.php?u=2258) and I hope that new B8 S4 - my new dream car :) will look just the same as A5, I really like S5 and I would buy it, but family, little child and wife, so coupe is not for me anymore! I hope S4 will look like S5 with 4 doors!

[Damienr8]

Personally, I do not like the look of the coupe with 4 doors. I hope the A4 has different styling elements for its front and rear ends, kinda of like what BMW did with the 3 sedan and coupe.

[Arslanoff]

I described it wrong. I do not think and I don’t want the rear end to be coupe like, it should be sedan like of course, but I like the front end.

In my opinion, this rendering looks extremely conservative:noshake:. I hope that Audi uses different styling elements to distinguish the B8 A4 from its A5 conunterpart.

[RXBG]

that's a nasty A6 front end manipulation, currently the audi line-ups' sorest sight.

They are the same thing. I am pretty sure that there won't be such a thing as an A5 Sportback, but there definitely will be an A4 Avant.

Rumored to bow in at September’s Frankfurt Auto Show (http://www.motorauthority.com/news/sedans/preview-2009-audi-a4/), Audi’s next-gen A4 sedan is being prepped for a sales launch early next year with several test mules already spotted around Audi plants in Germany.
This latest rendering shows that the new A4 will be styled very similarly to the A5, picking up the same shaped headlights and bonnet, plus the A5’s instantly recognizable swooping character line stretched across its flanks.
Utilizing the latest iteration of Audi’s modular-length platform design, the new A4 will share much of its mechanicals with the A5 including engines and transmissions. Handling and dynamics will be a major improvement over the current model because of the positioning of the engine behind the front axle. This means that the car will be less nose-heavy and overall weight distribution will be closer to the ideal 50-50 split.

Still dosen't do anything for me in the design department. Looks exactly like a 4 door A4. As I stated above, I hope that audi uses different styling elements to distinguish the A4 to its A5 counterpart.

[Arslanoff]

Looks exactly like a 4 door A4. You mean A5 right? This picture for me is more like A3. Oh, so want to see the real ones!!! Fead up waiting!
What do you think, guys, if they present the car at the FAA, will it go on sale in Sept-October, or only next year?

[QuattroFun]

Well, it looks promising in the tech department - not so sure about these photoshops but the S5 looks really good so probably the new A4 will be fine as well as along as they build in some stylish A4-specific tweak into it...
