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.

Wow never seen the back of a TT. I like it even more now.

Doesn’t work like that. You don’t get to pick and choose what proves or disproves your point.

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

Did we?

More often than not their cars are ugly.

Audi 5000

It is not exactly a pretty car

Early ones from 70's & 80's

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.

Say that to my face. And the sexy face of the RS7.

Say that to the Audi 5000 (top) and the Audi 100 Coupe. Even the lower-level cars are gorgeous.

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

I live in Buffalo, NY, so pretty close to Canada. I have never seen an A2 in my entire life.

“Ugly” is not the word that comes to mind...

Take that back or I will buy you a RS2 Avant just so you can admire it and love it.

To us. But Audi must of considered it ugly to use that car for the advert with that music.

It does not look good. If I took that badge off and replaced it with a ford badge you’d think it was a taurus.

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!

You got me on the coupe but I’m right regarding the 5000

Too much front overhang

Ehh, I’ll agree there, but they made a bland car look... less bland.

I know, I know, German stuff costs a ton. But at least it doesn’t go wrong that often!

Unless it is an Audis engine.

*shrug* I have just as much of a hard time telling BMWs apart as I do with Audis. Corporate grilles are boring. Not ugly, just boring.

I can’t tell the difference between Audi SUVs. Same with BMW. Just too similar. But all other models?

naw that’s a SUT he’s talking about the SHO (Shitty Horrible Ottomobile)

But for the period it’s from where everything was so staid and boxy.

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.

Could be worse, could be a BMW engine. Vanos anyone?

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.

Yeah, no doubt. I know I’m on a strict 5k mi interval for mine. Fuck that 10k interval BS.

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.
