The Hyundai design teams tends to crib off successful models. The Equus and Genesis have borrowed heavily from Mercedes and BMW.

Honda and others are equally as guilty.

Makes me appreciate the unique design of my A7 even more.

Ditto! But I did trade in a Cayman S for an older person's type of 4 door A6 3.0T... Maybe I am getting old(er)!?!?!

I dont know how old all of you are, but Im 22, and I dont think the A6 is an old mans car. Of course, I started cancelling all of my birthdays 30 years ago. I find that I seem to have a lot of aches and pains for a 22 year old.

Ewww..not a fan at all of this change. The older model was at least halfway attractive, this (exterior) is not my taste at all. That brown doesn't help it though.
Looks like they were trying to do too much with the refresh.

Interior is ok...lots of button on that center stack though.

MB was way low on my list when we were car shopping, mostly from reviews and partially from my own perception of it being an old man's car.

Haha!
I'm only 18 so I'm a bit younger than you. I refuse to grow up ever since I turned 18 several decades ago and my wife seems to agree with me as she tells me 'grow up' every day!
