All of you probably have figured out that Audi is my favorite car manufacturer. I mean, it’s even in my icon! Alright, back on track, here we go.
Has Audi ever made an ugly car?
I like the Audi SUVs (Q7 & more) which may surprise some but it’s normal for me. So, bring out those Audi pics. Lemme see some “ugly” Audis.

Well, OK, but I mean we didn’t get the A2 in the USA.
Did we?

Probably couldn’t get more ugly than the car nicknamed the Ugly Duckling, Audi prototype 1933 penned by Paul Jaray back in the 1920-30s.
The car above is a faithful replica and was used is an Audi A5 advert a few years ago.

It’s amazing for a lower-level Audi! But it totally looks like a rebadged version of the Buick GNX. No clue why.

My Brother-In-Laws Q5 just shit it’s timing chain, destroying the engine in the process at 80k miles. They gave him an estimate of $12k to fix it. That’s pretty ugly!

Something like this is curious and interesting to see where they were going with it.

It could be that I just never took the time to figure it out. The alphabet soup of names sure doesn’t help. Maybe there’s a really simple, elegant, consistent system to each number and letter that I just haven’t picked up on yet?
The TT and the R8 are the only modern ones that I can easily recognize.

That’s pretty bad. Did they skip some oil changes along the way?
I had 150k on my q7 before I sold it off. No major issues, other than a failed fuel pump at 100k plus. I’m hoping my new to me S8 goes as well. The S4 I sold off to get it was dead reliable from the 40k the 80k interval I owned it.
I’m surprised theirs puked the chain without some neglect or freak failure.

He bought it new, and followed the Audi recommended change interval. From what I read on the forums it’s pretty common on the 2.0L. The forums recommend changing it twice as often. Definitely makes me not trust extended change intervals.

Pretty busy with school, stuff like this brings me back in. Switched my concentration from product design to furniture design and picked up a marketing minor, so I really don’t have time for Oppo right now.
How’s it going with you?

Good, I’ve won a couple more awards recently, including an AIA design award. I’m working on a hangar/museum for Doc the B-29 in addition to a couple school bond issue projects.
Good furniture design is both rare and extremely difficult, so good luck. I hope you’ll improve the market for us Architects when we have to pick furnishings.
Marketing is a lot of fun for design majors (I was a couple credits short of a minor). It’s amazing how bad at graphic design/layout most of the people in those majors are. I hope you find those classes as fun and relaxing as I did.
