I like the new A6's front, but not the rear. I like the A7's front and rear and the side. Therefore I don't regret getting the A7. LOL!

What I meant with everybody was they don't regret chosing the A6 over the A7, and then I mentioned different opinions (ugly, not worth it) etc, you are right there is no reason to start a forum war, but in my opinion the A7-S7 is the most beautiful Audi besides the R8.

Yes indeed. See the resemblance of the A7 to R8?

You also wrote "I am sure lots of them wish they could get the A7 but they just do not accept it." That's what prompted my response to your post. Not only is there zero substance to that statement but frankly, it sounded like something one might read over on the BMW forum.
You are certainly entitled to your opinion and as for me, I am totally satisfied with my well thought out decision.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
'Nuff said.

Good for you!!! I still think people will regret of not getting the A7 but not willing to accept it openly, myself I regret a little bit of not waiting for the S7, those diamond shaped seats are beautiful. (besides the engine etc), Do I regret of getting my car NO (same as you) do I regret a little bit for not getting the S7? YES, Would I regret getting an A6 instead of a A7? HELL YEAH.

I' guessing this summary would also apply to the A6/A7?

"The S6 has a base price of $71,900 while the S7 starts at $78,800. Based on our short comparison, if you're not interested in the S7's form factor or trunk space, we recommend the driving enthusiast should save $6,900 and go with the S6."

Talking about regrets, has anybody regretted the color of his car after seeing another one? And also which do you think are the best looking colors, my guess is black, white, silver, Daytona grey and Moonlight Blue, please dont say Savana Beige it was even discontinued for 2013. I saw an Estoril blue S7 didnt impress me.

Projecting what you feel does not necessarily translate to how "all" A6 owners feel. Again, I do not regret one bit not getting an A7. Not even a "little bit" and I'm sure I'm not the only A6 owner who feels this way - hop on over to this thread on the A6 C7 forum and read the posts - they are as passioate as A7 owners about their car (and frankly, some of the comments there make no sense either).

The A7 design just wasn't for me. BTW, I feel the same way about the S6/S7 - while I admire what they are, I have no desire to own one either. Or a Mercedes or BMW for that matter. As I've stated in other posts, while the cars are both great and very similar in many ways, buyers will prefer one or the other for various reasons. The "mine is better than yours" thing for either A6 or A7 owners just doesn't work for me.
Enjoy your car!
