Looks good

I hope your joking.

It looks like a stretched a4 with poorly designed headlights.
The original A8 was by far the best large car audi has ever made.

Who puts an LED strip on a diagonal through the headlight?
It looks like the led headlights for the 9N3 polo from ebay.

Just keep it simple and have it run under the projectors.

I hope your joking.

that Road & Track link wasn't working for me, but if its the same as this hybrid, it don't look too bad to me.

It is a lot more agressive looking than the A4, but all the Audi line looks similar, its how you know it's in the family!

doesn't look too bad to me!

LOVE the interior.

The silly slideshow wont work for me, but it looks pretty good from the outside. Not a massive fan of the headlights however.

The outside just doesnt seem to befit a car that will cost as much the A8 will here.

Wheres the chrome? and whats with the slabs of black plastic? Inside looks pretty sweet though.

If I were ever shopping for an A8-like sled (not in this lifetime ), the BMW 7 series looks the goods.

agree...the outside looks like a $60k car BUT the inside looks like a $160k car and for me they need to match. They are all starting to look alike, particularly the rear lights. What can i say about the front lights? TACKY!!!
