I felt the same way about the proportions of VW Passat .....but when I saw it IRL, it looked fine. It is funny how things can look different in photographs.
i think it has something to do with the curved outlines above the wheel wells. if audi had pursued more angular shapes like...say a wedge like mercedes did then it would probably look a bit more sporty. i'd really like to see this car irl.
