Is it just me, or do both of these cars have way over-styled front ends?? And then from the back they look like ultra-conservative coupes. Kind of strange. More so in the Audi's case. But the BMW too, to a certain degree.

And here is the video of the test. It isn't very good (absolutely un-emotional, but it's nice to see these two cars in "moving pictures"!)

Re: Autobild: 330d Coupe vs. A5 3.0TDi

The bmw is certainly the better looking of the two IMO

And that car there is the basis of me thinking the M3 WILL AND IS great... thye M division have not stuffed up such a already strong foundation

I think it's just you! A car with a over styled front end in my book is a SLR or a Enzo, but that's just me.

Re: Autobild: 330d Coupe vs. A5 3.0TDi

so audi's material quality has gone down? overall i am kind of disappointed in the a5, thought it could match the 3er coupe, now i doubt if it can even stand against the infiniti. the only thing is i think a5 looks better and that's subjective.
