Audi has reached a new level of confusion with this thing. It's pretty much an A4 with a hatch, or an A5 with a hatch and 4 doors ... which makes it an A4. Audi decided to call it the A5 Sportback.

Way to go Audi!! Beautful designed car!! I get excited looking at Audi designs as of late. (ex. A8,A5,A6,TT) look great.
Lexus designs as of late = sigh.. another breath...sigh.. hoping for more.. sport package..
Oh well the new gen of cars are a coming. Hopefully Akio Toyoda will kick some asre in the design dept.
Audi designs =
Lexus designs =

Fantastic. Love the wheels. The roof does confuse me. It's glossy with an embedded standard moonroof.

Wanted to update this cause the Sportback really is a great looking vehicle that will never be seen on our shores. That is all.

it's too bad. audi has been wanting to boost sales in america for a while.
an a5 sportback could probably boost sales a lot here.
