I hope he takes his inspiration from Alfa rather than Lancia. | |

| Re: Audi appoints new design chief Ex-Alfa man new Audi design chief Wolfgang Eggers, the former head of design at Alfa Romeo, is to become head of design at Audi, taking over from Walter de'Silva, who has become the Volkswagen group design chief. Eggers, 44, started at Alfa in 1989 before leaving for Seat in 1998; he returned to Italy to Lancia in 2001 before going back to Alfa, where he then created the 8C Competizione. http://www.channel4.com/4car/news/ne...?news_id=15798 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- So he has created this car?

| Re: Audi appoints new design chief Audi seems to have grown particularly fond of Alfa Romeo's styling, and as a result they have been poaching the Italian marque's designers. The first to make the move northwards was Walter de' Silva, and now, Wolfgang Egger is following suit. Egger is leaving Alfa Romeo to become the new head of Audi's Style Center, the job formerly held by his old boss Walter de Silva, who moves up to Head of Volkswagen Group Design. During his tenure at Alfa Romeo, Egger was responsible for some beautiful creations, most notably the drop-dead gorgeous 8C Competizione and the Nuvola concept car from the 1997 Paris show. He had a large hand in designing the head-turning 159 sedan and wagon, Brera and Spyder and he contributed to the upcoming 149, 169 and Junior projects. In bouncing back and forth between various design posts in the Volkswagen and Fiat empires, he also worked on Seat and Lancia designs. While together at Alfa Romeo, Egger and de Silva worked together in penning the current 156, 166 and 147 models. Alfa Romeo's loss is Audi's gain. It'll be interesting to follow how the shifts will impact the designs of future models at both companies. [Source: Italiaspeed] http://www.italiaspeed.com/2007/cars...gger/1502.html
