#LAAUTOSHOW: First REAL LIFE Shots Of Audi's STUNNING A9 Prologue Flagship!

It looks just like every other Audi. Ford Fusion front,2008 Audi A6 rear. The interior is a Spartan disaster, I'm sure the trim pieces are top notch but it's just soooo bland. The S Class coupe has absolutely nothing to worry about

I don't like Mercedes products but the Mercedes S Coupe is one nicely done car.

+1. You took the words right out of my mouth.

scenicbyway12: Taking like that will get you banned from autospies. I happen to agree with you.

Agreed

It's stunning only in the sense that it makes people vomit.

Would people pay S Class coupe prices for what looks like a Fusion coupe?

Audi's new slogan is: Audi...the German Lincoln.

Matt, let us not get carried away with this. Lincoln is basically the absolute failure that had to even re-launch itself on the commercials saying "Introducing Lincoln Motor Company". Practically no one wants a Lincoln, and no one recognizes Lincoln as anything.

On the other hand, Audi is still widely recognized as the status symbol all around the world, and Audi still has cars like an R8, A5 and A7 which are very popular among athletes and celebrities.

Basically no brand in the industry is as invisible as Lincoln right now, even Hyundai/Kia.

And what can I say, this is the truth.

I'll be the contrarian say that I think it's a striking design that bodes well for the next A8 and Audi's future line up.

Just like the S class coupe, this car will be incredibly popular among celebrities all around the world like any other Audis.

And not to mention Germany now has become the most respected nation in the entire world, beating out the United States.

And look how many European countries are on top 10. Correct, there are 6 of them in top 10. If Europe functioned more as one country, you'd see the U.S. never being able to beat the European Union forever and ever.

Yes because the Anholt-GfK Nation Brands Index is the world's recognized authority on ranking the greatness of nations. Lol. Moron.

The U.S. was on the first place for the past 4 years. Oh, I guess that doesn't count too, then? Lol, what a third world country moron.

By the way, this is also on MSNBC.

Woo go cry me a river.

Third world country? The average American makes $8k per year more than the average German. We're talking about a country with almost four times the population of Germany. So even if you shrunk the US to the same population - it would still be a lot richer than Germany. Lol. Moron. There's really no comparison - on any level. Moron.

The American middle class, no longer the world's richest. Woo, go cry me a river. Oh, you want to bring out the population card now? Woo, is that because you believe the U.S. is just generally too poor, now you felt the need to bring out the population card now? LOL! What an idiot. But I agree. I think this is because the U.S. in general, around 80~95% of the country is pretty much bankrupt and too poor to do anything. So I agree, most likely it is wiser to just bring out the "population" card, just to make yourself feel better LOL! Go cry more.

“It’s an enduring irony that the U.S., allegedly the home of innovation, is absolutely block-headed and backwards in this one respect,” former Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, now the president of Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, said in an interview. “America needs the upgrade and modernization of our infrastructure, and I don’t think you’ll get there if you keep excluding, or at least discouraging, private capital.”

Infrastructure? Third world country level. Woo, cry more ;)

And what's even funnier, the rich Americans? They don't support American brands. So what happened to the American manufacturing jobs? Oh wait, what happened to Detroit? LOL!

Wow. I feel like I'm making fun of a natural fool, it makes me feel bad :( I apologize :(

Lol! What kind of America hating dream land are you from?

The US Economy dwarfs the German economy. They're not in the same league.

Not only is the American economy almost FIVE times the size of the German but it's also growing at a much faster pace!

Just in the next year, the American economy will grow at a rate that's 300% greater than the German! 3% GDP growth vs. barely 1% for Germany. That means the US will create almost FIFTEEN time the wealth that Germany will in the next year. Lol!

The EU as a whole wishes they were in the same position as the US. Don't believe it?

You've heard of Bloomberg haven't you Timberlake? Time to cry me a river. Ha!

Why is America so superior? Because it's a land of creativity and innovation. A place where you're not taxed at 50% like in your beloved Germany and where new enterprises are encouraged to flourish. Why do you think the world's greatest corporations are American? Apple, Google, Microsoft, IBM, General Electric, Johnson & Johnson... The list goes on and on...

Where are your great, innovative German corporations? Bet you can't compile a list of world dominating German companies that compares to this short one can you. No, you can't.

Now buy yourself a schnitzel and a beer and go drown your German loving sorrows away.

He drops the mic and leaves the stage.

BTW - nothing against Germany. Just love calling that clown out.

Just ignore JDMus.....the reset of us do.....he's been spewing his crap for so long around here it's comical...

Lol. I hear ya. New to this site.

This car will sell well. It has an aggressive front end with a clean (if a bit plain) rear end and utilizes the best of Audi's trademark 3D grille and technology. People need to remember this is just a concept car.

This car is boring but its a large, luxury coupe. So, now BMW 6, Mercedes S & Audi A9 Coupe are all to compete so clearly the El Miraj needs to be built. That car is simply stunningly gorgeous, this car is simply not and for the $100K+ it will likely cost it will be a very, very low volume car. VW is trying to use every platform it can multiple times ....which platform is this one?

Not fully baked yet. There is some promise and some new ideas for Audi but overall it's not a fully coherent design front to rear with some unnecessary elements.

Strangely enough, Audi has managed to make a car that instantly makes me think of the Toyota Avalon. Not a fan of these 4 door shoe horns.

Nvm, its only a 2 door. Still too big for a 2 door, need to chop a foot or two off of it.
Why are there 20 pics of the passenger side dash? It's not that remarkable to even warrant 1 picture.
