Eni's sounce should just say it's a blown up A4 with ugly interior. I don't care about fit and finish if it looks terrible.

I don't mind the interior at all but wish it was more harmonic in it's appearance because the dash and the armrest console look like two separate entities.

Best in class interior? Even better than F01 7er? WOW. Any way, I really doubt that in terms of interior design it overpass F01.

The guy didn't comment on interior design (but we can see it's an evolution of the current one) ... he just said the finish & materials used would top 7er & S-class. Although I didn't asked directly - but I suppose he talked about F01 not E65.

Another one for the rejectors. Gear lever/hand brake in the same construction and design as the A1 Concept.

Nice. Too bad the production car never looks like the sketch.

^^ You already know what the production car will look like. You've seen the real car in this very thread, inside out.

That has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Production car never have sheetmetal that curvy or puffy like that, that is what I'm talking about. Not talking design only.
