Anyone else find the A6 (and Passat) roofline reminding them of the neu beetle?   Not that that is bad, mind you.
Remember the old beetle and all its customized incarnations- dune buggy, chopped hot rod, etc.  I forsee a similar
future for the new one.
But for a $40k plus "luxury" car, it is maybe not the best visual association.  I didn't really care for the looks of
the A6 before I made this connection to the Beetle, and that further reduces it's appeal to me.  Not sporting enough,
IMO, the A4 is a better looker.  But then to me the CQ/S2 is the stylistic high point for Audi, which proves me to be a
real screwball anyhow.
Just remember, opinions given freely are worth every penny.
