i don't think it's an e92 alternative though, i've read it's as big as an A6!

Nice....now I understand BMW's decision to offer x-drive on the E92s.

Thank you, i though i was the only one thinking that... The back, the side, the screen position, ... My God EVerything is like the e92... I thought it was a photoshoped e92... I SWEAR i thought it was a e92... That is straight up IDENTICAL to e92. The way the rear lights are desined, and the side looks very identical, the inside... I'm not hating, i think that audi looks very VERY good but it looks very identical to the e92.. more that the g35. BMW has set the benchmark

look at this...

Overal Shape, front grill, headlights, TAILLIGHTS, 5-spoke wheels, doors and door handle... notice the curve line on bottom corners on both cars its like if I tried to draw an e92 from memory, it would looks something like the a5...

from the profile shots, I do prefer how the A5 has more of the wedge shape, with the kick up at the decklid.

Crazy. I'll admit that I dig the look of the new Audi, but I'm shocked with how similar it looks to my 335 coupe.

That pic of the two side by side really drives it home.

The A5 is kinda like Drew Barrymore or Reese Witherspoon.



The E92 is kinda like Angelina Jolie or Chalize Theron.

Pics of A5 leaked, kinda looks like E92

The A5 is supposed to be shown at Geneva, but pics were leaked, i think it looks very similar to an E92.
