New A6 Styling--Don't rush to judgement!
I too saw the photo in Autoweek of the new '98 A6, and honestly,
since the US bumpers are larger (5 mph crashworthy) it does look a
little chin heavy, at least at first. It has the more sporty air
intakes which look to be a direct lift off the new Euro S4. Which in
my mind are very desirable.
When the first photos of the Euro A6 came out, I thought the two tone
bumpers were, at first, cheap looking and butt ugly, but the more I
studied the design the more I liked the style; it was just that it was
such a departure from the old styling.
Don't write off the styling of the new A6 until you see it in person and
can judge first hand rather than from a thumbnail photo in a weekly rag.
I predict that the Japanese and US makers will be copying the new A6
styling within two years!
