Looks mean as hell! Not a fan of that style steering wheel tho, love the one in the RS3/5 but they don't have heating functions for the flat bottom ones in those vehicles.

Also not a fan of the dual screens but the exterior is awesome! Wish Audi's had better performance or else I'd have considered one more seriously

Definitely the best looking Audi in the lineup (other than the RS6), just wish they didn't change out the MMI scroll wheel for the touchscreen setup but it was inevitable. Also Audi, will you finally give your customers some real metal paddles?!? Even the ones in the R8 are weak.

Does the new RS6/7 have a regular torque converter or will it be a DCT? Audi's known for their poorly tuned AT's

Saw one in person today while my wife and I test drove an SQ7. It was incredible looking. A lot more pressence than any of the others in its class I thinks.

Have to agree. Not sure yet how I feel about the tails. Really nice looking front end for sure.

Don't agree, I really like the RS5 Sportback and RS6 Avant. I think those two have the best shapes. RS7 still looks a little odd from behind. The RS7 sportback is what I'd get for a larger 4-door in their lineup, in that it's more practical than a 6 or 8 with that rear hatch, but on just looks alone, I'm RS5 Sportback and RS6 Avant.

Audi pioneeed the lighting game. And they continue to evolve it with stunning and impactful designs. I love the head and tail lights equally. Like nothing else on the road...
They also must be commended on their stock wheels. I am a diehard aftermarket wheel guy! But I would probably leave these as is.

Looks very menacing in black and the thing sounds like thunder !
The Led lights entertainment looks like science-fiction , but the rear led bar has of course the Porsche 992 genes ..
In short : Audi nailed it again !

Eh, needs a bigger grille to compete in todays market.

I kid, I kid.

That thing is pretty impressive. Not a huge fan of tan seats in a black interior, especially with purple lights. Reminds me of a cowboy hanging out in a bar designed by Prince. I'm sure the interior can be changed up a bit, but that front end and those headlights, wheels, brakes, etc.......damn....

The real question is, RS7 or 850GC/M8GC?

Exactly. Was thinking this myself.

As much as I like the current M8... This Audi can not be denied in overall presence! 600hp all wheel drive is more than adequate.

I actually LOVE that interior! It's my favorite: Caramel, Honey, etc. Black inside would be overkill.

RS7, M8 GC, AMG GT, Panamera GTS.

All sexy as hell, difficult to choose which is the best looking.

That RS7 is beautiful, but I just discovered this today. Ara Crystal Blue RS6, and about $5k cheaper than an RS7 and so much rarer.
