I don't know, but I see a lot of the BMW E92's influence in the car, especially the rear end treatments. And that is not a good thing.
Like the E92, I think this car looks too big. Again, not a good thing for a Sports Coupe.
First new design from Audi that I didn't like. 
Thanks for the pics!

Uh. "Leaked"? Whatever. Yay for automotive espionage!!!
Well, this is disappointing. Where's the Nuvolari gone? All I see is an A4 with the A3 front and 3-series arse. And that style line is weird. Strange curves. And ewwww. That weird style line treatment lower down, that's so BMW! What's the world gone to? Audi with a flame-surface treatment.
HOPEFULLY, this is a hoax. Some very good photoshop pics. And I'll wake up from this nightmare. :cry:
PS: Wow. I keep looking at it. It's so ugly. How can they go from the A6 to the TT to the R8 to THIS? Hopefully, those fools at Audi realize what a big mistake they've made. Nobody buy this!

It's like an ugly version of the E92 3-series.

Somehow the rear reminds of a E92 3 Series coupe. Especially the rear lights.

I quite like it, but then again I am an audi nerd. It promises a lot for the S5 or RS5. Why do they have 2 different placements for the MMI controls?...
It would be perfect with a RS5 with an inline 5cyl Turbo....

Looks like an A6 with 2 doors, huge rearlights that don't fit the car that much. A bit boring look, except for the front.
I see that the Benz CLS has nothing to worry about. 8)

It just looks like an 14 to me with some refinements. The orginal concept pics looked great.

The interior is great as usual but the front end is quite dull Looks like a two-door sedan...

i'm glad im not the only one who thinks the back looks abit like that of the 3 series coupe...i was expecting it to look more like the nuvolari concept car...and whats with that gearshift it looks the same as the one in the golf gti...oh well they say the engine is placed behind the front wheels this time so maybe it will drive slightly better
