    I for one think the A3 Sedan Concept looks a lot better than the A8 for example. And if the hatchback will look anything like that sketch above, it's going to be one attractive car! The current A3 is my least favorite Audi in production and the only one that I dislike.

    Yep, it's nice but as EnI said it's very predictable, adds nothing to the design language. The thing is, only thing that changes on Audi's is the interior. That's why I'm interested in only MB:s and BMW:s new cars tbh. Nice but dull.

    I agree,these current sketches I find way more flattering than the current A3,what I wanted to see most was the display of the headlights be Incorporated into the production version,but Audi said the technology will be offered later on,and probably in higher models. It seems to me there on a quest to perfect LED design,and seem to be ahead of the curb on the competition in that department.

    The thing is Audi,BMW,and Mercs all looking very similar these days. I think people love to run with ideas that are put out there,but turn a blind eye to the very fact their favorite brands are doing the same.

    I hope the new A3 drives better than previous version....

    No no, what I critisized is that sometimes you seem to critic with some brands, and much less with other brands which do the same.

    I won´t put you nor anyone on the ignore list, as I find every opinion interesting.

    If it looks like this, it would be my second choice after the A-Class.

    WTH 2013??
    Too late.
    An 2011/12 S3 Sedan would have been great but I cannot wait until 2013/14...

    Why is A3 so late? i have noticed that VAG has a problem introducing new models based on new platforms. Most products they have recently introduced were in fact facelifts, A3 itself is massively visually outdated

    I was told it was because, Audi wanted to rush the A1 and Q3 into production, an they were a higher priority

    Maybe A3 looks predictable and boring, but for me, as a BMW fan, it would be the first time I would pick an Audi over a BMW. Audi A3 (that I do not know anything about yet) > BMW 1 Series (F20).
