Got alot time for this car... but compared to the M5 and E63 it is rather boring. Its not overall design its in the detailing. I for one have and will never like the glasshouse of this car, as i have always loved the bmw kink (whatever its called?) and the one on my ford falcon. Its more rounded and stylish in my my honest opinion.

I think the A6- along with most of the other pre Q7 Audi's - look a little ordinary. *Post Q7 looks more interesting, not as striking as any new BMW, still great looking cars though.

i dont see anything boring about any audi outthere (exept for the X7) , i use to hate the older generation, but i really love the new generation , especially the S/RS cars.

it might not be boring..but it looks boring..
infact the whole A6 range is boring.. ( avant is hot though)..
i hope the RS6 will change that..but maybe its coming to late..the A6 is kinda oldish by now..

It's not their competitor. You should compare ther 550i and E500 to the S6.

the line is unclear, but 550i and E500 should be compared to A6 4.2Q. S6 dont have a competitior from mb and bmw, so S6 is king in its own segment

i dont think its boring..but it dont think that its as interesting and aggresive as the M5 or the E63. Saying that I think it is more of an understated luxo cruiser like teh S8. Totally different approach, cant wait for teh RS6 now thats going to be the car

Exactly.

A V10 powered sedan can never be boring.

* The fact that it's extremely beautiful.
I don't care how this car drive, you posted a photo and you expected comments, so i judge the design and althoug it's nice it remains boring, when i see this car i have the feeling of indifference, the only thing that captures my eyes are the rims. So yes for a supposed spoty V10 car, it's borring.
