A5 Coupe?



	I'm curious. Audi is rumored to be developing an "A6 based coupe". That I
have read. Still, looking at the trends of others (Acura and BMW
especially) producing lower priced coupes than in the past (2.2CL and
upcoming 850 5series replacement. Do you think that Audi will try a catch
all middy coupe in between the A4 and the A6 coupe? I would bet yes, and
there is a perfect chassis that length already in production (VW Passat).
With TT based styling somewhere in between the A4 and A6 they might be on
to something.
	I think an A6 coupe is too upmarket for an Audi coupe and while an A4
coupe would be stunning especially in S4 guise, it's a little too close in
size to the A3 and TT coupes for someone as catchall in their planning as
VWAG. Just my 2 cents.
	Later-G (S5 just doesn't sound right. BMW's are odd, Audis are even.
(3,5,7 vs. 4,6,8) I see a pattern. I guess Audi will hopefully always be
one up)
