Please contribute your opinion one more time. I found lately that German cars (BMW, MB, Audi, Opel) are heading to similar very similar design language: - convex/convave surfaces separated with sharp creases - prominent V-shaped grills - prominent shoulder line / crease - prominent side skirt crease Future models will show this features even more clearly. Is this a new Teutonic design language? IMO it is. What do you think? |

![]() | Re: New Teutonic design language AUDI is moving in a very interesting direction - influenced by very clean architectural and dynamic styles - it is still very subtle but we are starting to see hints of a dramatic evolution at Audi. I think this new Audi style is quite feminine and very clean. Here is a photo montage (of sorts) that expresses this new Audi character to me. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by SDNR; 02-20-2006 at 09:24 AM. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: New Teutonic design language OK, just take your time. And from time to time make a CTRL+A and than a CTRL+C, I find it quite helpfull. You are using a PC right. Now back on topic. It could be a new teutonic design, that the ones behind it are not germans. |
