I gave myself some time to dwell on the car. It doesn't do anything for me. Uncool.

looks like a mini Aston Martin.
Looking at this car is like watching grass grow. How dare you insult Aston Martin!

Now now, Mattk. Blindness is a serious condition. Give everso some slack.

Well.... I couldn't find the other thread about the Audi A5/S5 so I am posting this link here just in case some people haven't seen it yet.


It's a video of the S5:

I voted cool but my heart votes between cool and uncool.

It's seriously uncool. Saw it at Geneva and it's as boring as a japanese Infiniti.
Too late to change my vote but I'll take your word for it. I always thought the car looked boring, but i'm admittedly a bit of an Audi fanboy so I tend to not hate anything they make.

voted uncool. blandest coupe design ive seen in years! and ROFL at whoever it was that said this looked better than a 3-series coupe! i mean, the 3 series at least has some curves, some interesting surfaces, and some downright good looks. this looks bad from the front, horrible from the rear, and dont get me started on that ridiculous "accent line" running along the side of the car. a 5 year old could have designed a better and more interesting car!

of all the german cars released as 2 door coupes, this is BY FAR the closest to a muscular shape...
To be honest, I don't think any car in this class was ever intended to look muscular. These cars are supposed to be classy, elegant, reserved, refined. This car is no exception. I'm sure it's nice inside, but outside, it just looks boring. Boring cars are uncool, even if they are not ugly (and this one is).
