New Audi A9 coming?

[klier]

Which is the front and which is the rear?

Perfect!

 

[rollo]

Perfect!

Must we revel in the cheap shots from the BMW guru?

Agreed. Post as a BMW Marketing representative and you have certain responsibilities. I cringe whenever Scott forgets this.

I am not seeing any new direction here. Good job they are renders.

If I am to place my bet:chances are Audi will bring this to the market before BMW can conjure up something to rival it.

 

[rollo]

Although it is very difficult to determine a lot from the teaser, I wonder if there will be a hint of the next generation Panamera in the A9?

I am sorry

 

[rollo]

No worries klier. I know like most around here that you prefer bimmers, as did I for most of my life. I really don't understand why Scott27 feels the need to disparage the other German car manufacturers however. His feedback outside of BMW threads are usually very transparent.

Little better renders:

What does the Metropolis have to go through still? Whenever there is a luxury car/concept approaching, it is (mis)used for crazy illustrations.

Haha, I posted the same on other thread:

They also seems to be inspired by another Citröen's concept, the DS9:

That is indeed a very good question.

I would speculate that the Panamera series II will be a more "athletic" car. Immediately identifyable as a Porsche-and thus "Teutonic" in nature. Random bits of chatter indicate that Audi will adopt a more "technical-with a bit of British oppulence/Italian flamboyance" route. Whatever on Earth that may actually mean.

Audi teases A9 concept once again

Audi is really in a difficult position, not only but particularly, design-wise .... I've seen great and courageous proposals under Egger's regimen. This one will be neither, imo.

 

[klier]

Whoa, sexy!

(I have a hood shutline fetish, and this one here looks gorgeous)

 

[Busty]

^There are much worse fetishes like, say, exhaust pipes ..... (still, I can't help but think of Tim Minchin: "....But, instead, in the morning, when my wife is gone, I find myself back on sexyshutlines.com .....")

 

[klier]

Sexyshutlines.com sounds like something I would like!

 

[tristatez28lt1]

I was very excited about this car but now I don't know. The little bit we can see looks like a more elegant Ford Fusion...

 

[Merc1]

Either that or a 4-door Mustang, going by that pic. Still can't wait to see it though.

Although the car is veiled, it appears to exhibit proportions that I have always wanted to see in Audis.
