Ha! You're right though. I honestly didn't notice too much until you mentioned it. I only noticed the wheels which are damn near replicas of the Stinger GT wheels in overseas markets ( and a 1 year special edition in U.S.), but I now see a few other details.

I don't see the resemblance. I see Ford Fusion IMO

I couldn't care less what other car it looks like - why is that so important? Every single car in existence has some resemblance to another car, perhaps a very small detail or perhaps a bigger part. In the end, they are cars with 4 wheels, 2 or 4 doors.

More importantly IMHO - is how does the car look? Do you like it or not?

I love it! Awesome proportions and very muscular and aggressive. The only part that I think needs to redone is the hood and front bumper. Why is it so vertical/tall when there is no engine in there? Make it less tall and I think it will look stunning!

Is this above or below the E-Tron GT?

It's definitely bigger than the E-Tron GT. Price-wise, it could go either way depending on whether Audi really does plan to have this be an A6 replacement.

it's not important to me at least, it was just a gut reaction i had when i saw it.

More importantly IMHO - is how does the car look? Do you like it or not?
looks great! however...

that giant black block/wedge thing on the side looks ridiculous. i'm sure it's there to hide/disguise some of the vertical height from the battery slab underneath but to me, it's WAY over styled.

apart from that...
