Yes but did actually Wada did the design himself? Or did he just signed in the sketch?

Audi designers are evil and mean , he might have stolen the design from someone else.

Yeah ... You could be right though.

Perhaps WdS was so kind he allowed Mr Wada to sign under the design sketch that was actually made by da Silva himself.





Now I wonder was the claim by WdS (that he designed A5) intentional, or was Mr da Silva just so clumsy when formulating the sentence / claim.



Anyway ... the situation is indeed a bit awkward. Especially for Mr. Wada.

Wow Yannis! You're a die-hard daSilva fan aren't you?
As I said before: Satoshi Wada is the designer of the A5. daSilva didn't draw a single line on it. Did you think that daSilva "told" the design to Wada and he drew it? C'mon..

Boy I tell ya that DaSilva guy sure is a piece of sh!t! You mean to tell me this guy had the nerve to say it's his design and not this Wang guy? A few questions I'm wondering about just in case any of you know the answer..

1) Is he out of a job for spread such outragous lies?

2) How could he get away with making such claims, wouldn't somebody speak up about this?

3) I'm assuming he'll be getting sued in the near future for stealing Mr.Wangs design (trademark infringement or something along those lines) right?

4) If the answer is know to all three of these questions then Mr. DeSilva is the designer of the A/S5. I highly doubt such claims could be made merely because you oversee the project. But hey, what do I know....

Yannis

I don't believe that Wada designed the cars himself. Probably Wada stole it from someone else and then De Silva stole it from Wada. Next thing we know Winterkorn will come out saying that he designed the A5 himself.

hu§eindesign

Nope! The design is a proporty of Audi. Suing isn't an issue here at all.

hu§eindesign

Damn designers. A bunch of SOBs aren't they?

Yannis

EnI's propaganda seems to be working fine as i can see.

NO COMMENT...

EnI

1. He is. He is now a Volkswagen Group design chief.

2. Who? Audi officials? "Journalists"? Audi won't do it - that would mean shooting themselves in their own leg. A PR fiasco. Mr. Wada won't do it - since he could lose his job. Journalists? Do they really care?

3. Like Huss said: designs are property of a company.

....

C'mon Audi guys. WdS blew it this time. Sh!t happens. The guy took credit for a design he didn't do it by himself.

Btw, I do not believe you have more problem with that that I ("official GCZ Audi-basher") pointed out that issue, than with WdS "stealing" the credit for A5 design.

Blind faith!
