NEW Audi A6- AHHH GAWD! My eyes!

For your viewing displeasure



I had a similar shifter in my Pontiac grandam rental car last time







Soon enough, Audi will catch up with BWM in the Ugly A$$ car department

I was thinking that too, I was like what kind of pick up line is "Yuh, I drive a Vovlo, want a ride home, just let me move the carseat to the trunk".

Now there are lots of craps near the shifter. I am not digging the styling.

What's with the long grille that goes way down into the bumper area?

Volvos rule. They're sometimes fugly looking, but in the end they're a great car for the price.

That one must be a diesel... it redlines at 4500.

I think it looks ok... kind of like the new E class in the rear.

Now, which engines will they offer here?

I don't have as much of a problem with the exterior as I do with the interior. I think the grey makes the interior look cheap. The wook panel and all those controls just don't look like they belong there...

Does this car hold the world record for having the busiest interior? I think the Audi's got more buttons and knobs in there than the space shuttle.

its got a lot of stuff in the crappy iDrive which is one knob. hard to use, but removes a lot of the buttons which cleans up the dash. unfortunately its harder to use than just leaving some buttons on the dash because you have go through menus.

Plus, doing the double uppercut with that knob is extremely difficult.

You win! Perfect!

i think it looks kinda neat. I love the interior (but mostly because I love car gadgets).

So how much?
