| Re: WCF Readers Vote Audi A7 Sportback, Audi R8 V10 Stars of 2009 NAIAS Well deserved i would say.  The A7 is starting to grow on me , it's only a matter of time before i diggest the rear (which seemed a bit strange at first).

| Re: WCF Readers Vote Audi A7 Sportback, Audi R8 V10 Stars of 2009 NAIAS That unified & similarly designed fleet of Audis in white - with only certain new models in different color - is interesting although a bit scary. It reminds me of Apple and 1984. First calling themselves an alternative, building brand on that image of progress & alternative ... And today Apple products look all the same, and (at least iPod) dominate the market. A bit ironic. Someone should throw a hammer at Steve Jobs finally. Or at least his tumors will be the ones saying: "We will prevail!" And Apple Inc. without SJ won't be like Apple Inc. with Steve Jobs.  The curse of alternative: the alternative status always leads to mainstream. And them some other alternative comes. A natural progress, I guess. So ... Is the progress really so beautiful? |
