What a beautiful design! Clean but very aggressive while retaining the hallmark large Audi single-frame grille and LED headlights.

If this is the direction Audi's design is going to go in, watch out BMW and Mercedes-Benz!

Stunning design! However, I still like the Model X more =)

Acura? Except for the "gaping hole" grill, it reminds me of the styling language that Acura has been exploring on their NSX.

Not bad at all; little edgy but not over the top.

It seems that Audi and Ford grill/headlight design is converging. See Ford Edge concept from NY show.

That one picture was as insightful as reading the article. That's not nearly enough to form a real opinion on, at least not for me.
