As others have said, this appears to be the most minor facelift in Audi history. Must been they are pleased with the initial design.

The rear end and valence are a huge improvement, but the new headlights seem to be a step back.

I gotta say I don't like this as well as the 2013 I have. Glad to see that they didn't change the looks much. Sounds like there are good technology improvements though that we might be jealous of.

Curious, what is the downside of the new headlights?

It's obviously personal taste, but more specifically it's the new daytime LED design. The current version seems to give off a much more aggressive look.

Oh, ok; frankly, I didn't notice the difference! Guess it is purely personal.

I quite like it. The smaller front grille is nice and, as mentioned, the back end is much improved.

Anyone else notice the cross drilled carbon rotors? Wonder if that will make it here since it didnt on the RS7.

So has anyone been able to determine if the 30hp bump is real or a re-rating? If it's real, what are the mechanical/ECU changes done to achieve it and can owners of the 2013 & 2014 cars have these changes done?
