- new "S" grille.
- rear diffuser is like the S5. I think BimmerLoyalist will like the strip at the bottom like he hoped for Infact the diffuser is exactly same as TT-S
- obviously sporting the S4 badge.

The new A4 has grown on me. The rear lights seemed a little lazy at first, but overall it looks better than its rivals IMO. S4 is too similar too A4 S-Line but it does look great, and if that engine is as good as we think it will be, it'll slot in perfect between A4 and RS4.

i like the front a lot, but the rear looks squished compared to S5 which they are trying to copy from. i hate it when they borrow pieces from different cars. the E90 M3 is a successful one though

what are you talking about? Porsche hasn't changed shit in forever. They all look the damn same.

BTW, is Audi redoing it's entire fleet of cars or something? giving an overhaul to each series?

The 3 series platform has an identity crisis. First the coupe and sedan were different. Now they are just mix and matching parts. They have given the coupe front to the sedan, but arent going to use the same rear on the sedan. Just weird...

M3 coupe - It's grown a lot on me. I know someone with a AW one, it's stunning. I love every colour except JB. It hides the bodywork. I'll need to see M3 sedan on the road.

Front looks very aggressive, I like it!

The rear could use bigger exhaust tips, but not bad overall.

Overall I am pleased too. It is similar to the S-line, but next to a 335i sedan M-sport I know what I'd take cant wait for final details.

That rear end is boring and on these pictures I would have to disagree with hkz786 and pick the 335i M/Sport ahead of it but once I opened the door and seen the interior and got to drive it the looks would take second place on my decision making and the S4 would still be my choice.

I think the back end looks a bit CLS'ish to me.
It doesn't give it enough of a muscular "bite me" look. Looks like a normal A4 look and the S4 should have more of a flared widebody look to it.
The front looks aggressive enough but I'm not sure about the LED placement. Looks TRON like.
I'm sure the inside will be very nice as all new Audi's are.

Overall I love Audi's big ass grill opening
