Audi has been coming out with the best looking car models over the last 5 years hands down--

The R8
The R8 V10 Spyder
The S5/ RS5
The A5/S5 vert (which kept the rag top--letting you have a trunk too!!)
The S4
The new TT RS
The A7/S7 (Compare that to the BMW GT)
The new A6
An S8

Have you seen the new ALL LED headlights on the new A6, A7, A8?

Just talking headlights....BMW use to OWN the cool head light segment with Xenon plus Angel eyes...Audi came in and took over the WOW factor by INNOVATING with LEDS....where was BMW....out designing the GT...while Audi was designing the A7.

In comparison BMW has been struggling to get back to designing cars that had pure, bold, GERMAN, holistic design....with the right hint of aggression..

Remember the SHEER BEAUTY of the E46M3, the E46 330i with ZSP, the Z8 (in its own way as gorgeous as the Audi R8), and in my opinion the last 650i vert. Heck the simple GERMAN beauty of the E 39 Five series.

Cars where EVERYTHING about the design just works...then, now, forever.

I think Audi is closer to that today with the R8, A7, S5 vert, RS5 than anything at BMW.

Look at the new 6 series...does that really get your blood pumping?

Look at the GT

Perhaps its a Bangel hang over...

But BMW has to get back to designs that make you salivate ala Z8.....or the E46M3!!!
