Audi A5 Sportback caught free of camo
Two things come to mind when I saw these pictures:
1) The side profile reminds me way too much of a Chevy Malibu
2) What is the point of this, in comparison to the A4 and A6? It doesn't even "look" like a 4 door coupe whereas the the CLS carries very unique sheetmetal and a very different overall shape.

Strongly resembles an "x" in a little square box, not a Malibu...

I personally like swoopy 4 door rooflines (CLS/CC/IS/LS/ES/XF, etc.), but at first glance this A5 roofline doesn't look good to me.

Now, I've had a few mimosas this morning but I think I'm not out of line w. the following ...
wtf? I don't get it ... ugly A4 / A6 (depending on overall size)
