Default 2010 Audi A8 D4 Spyshots

Not sure how accurate they are, but I do like some of what they did with the interior. I still think the A8 has the nicest interior in it's class and it looks like this one may have one up'd it. Of course, who knows if they are real, but it looks pretty convincing to a current owner.

Not too sure I like the rear...

Side view, weird hood line being cut too low into the door

Front showing LED DRLs

I might venture to say that the current one looks better. Interior looks really plain, the exterior looks bland, and the overall package looks dated.

I say not real.

No steering wheel mounted controls at all? Don't know what it is but it sure doesn't look like it has much relation to the next A8.

You're exactly right, they all look the same. Although I do like the current A8, and I hated the previous one, even though they look like the same car. It doesn't make much sense

And this new one looks kind of like a Chrysler 300C from the side view

I love Audi Designs, almost like Porsche, they stick in one design.
