Anyways, several people latched onto my comment and posted the "YoU HaTe iT NoW buT WiLL buY onE AnyWays."

I ordered an 2022 Audi RS6 today in Glacier White on Cognac Brown. BMW has strayed into this gaudy territory that I frankly do not want to be associated with. Once my wife's X4M40i lease is up we're going to move on to an SQ8.

I hope it is worth it for them - bastardizing an icon and alienating the core consumers of the brand is an interesting way to take a business. Oh also, cancelling the ED program - fucking travesty.
I just read a comparison review in the UK's Car Magazine of the Audi A5 vs. the BMW 420i (I know that BMW model isn't even sold in the USA and the same may be true of the Audi). They deliberately ignored front end styling issues but ended up preferring the BMW for its handling.

There are pictures of the two facing the front and the Audi looks way better than the BMW.
