Not entirely won over by the overall look of the car. But you have just got to love the spec. :love:

Uhum, second that.
Great displacement engine, probably the same nice snarly soundtrack as in the sedan and I am sure it is also a great drive overall with the power pack's extra ponies and the rear diff to the point that it will easily drop both the M3 and the RS5 at least in a straight line.
vs.
In these pictures, it really looks too much like a cheap tuned japanese car and the coupe lines do not look quite right either and the rear end looks bulky too IHMO (maybe and hopefully this perception changes when I see it in real life).
:alig:

:alig: I'd say it looks like a nicely tuned Japanese car. For me, it looks like a nicer version of the Honda Accord coupe.

I'd have the sedan, looks better imo.

I do agree with you guys I'm not entirely sold to the coupe exterior. I looks nice and not nice at the same time :vhmmm:
The interior is the big step forward vs mkI. Now we can say it looks nice and of good quality (at least to me). Probably the sedan remains the best deal with four doors as perfs are the same. Not shure the handling will be much better on the coupe. Must see it in real life.
Nice to see the 6.2 V8 striking back for shure. Amaizing piece ! I still remain very much tempted...

Indeed it looks like meek Japanese coupes sold in the US. Not half as beautiful as mk1.
