I would hate to see it's getting those VW eyes.

It probably is 95% accurate. But the last 5% make the car. I am sure there will be different head lights.

Remember, the R8 in camo was around 95% accurate, but the real thing turned out so much better.

but from spy pics, the overall form seems pretty similar. honestly, the Nuvolari was much better looking. I don't know why they changed it.

I like the use of organic lines in the a5 (at least what i can see) kind of a fuseing of german and italian style...gives the car more of a soul.

Cool picture! and article.

For all you people that do not understand dutch yet, (you realy should, you know ;-). Here's the translation of the important facts:
- Build upon the shared platform that will also be used on A4 and A6 (A8 not mentioned)
- Engine is positioned furhter backwards
- A5 is bigger than current A4 about 4.70 m (5'8")
- A5 Convertible will have softtop
- S5 could be in Geneva as well, according to audi planning given to the reporter.
- S5 will have V8 with at least 350 hp
- S5 will have a neutral / oversteering character
- A5 will be available in europe in June
- New A4 will be available in europe in November.

That's it folks,
Cheers,

Richard

just because they were a "hit" doesnt really mean they were pretty. i assume you are reffering to the 300c and the mustang (i cant really think of any other "hits" from ford recently)...the 300 sells because of its pseudo gangster bling and mustang...well...because its a mustang. both are cool cars generally speaking but hardly worth talking about from a serious design perspective.
basically what i was trying to say before is that the a5 would look to much like a big tt if they had stuck strictly to the nuvolari look.
