Rumor has it that Audi will delay introduction in America due to hostile reaction to styling...

That is GOOD NEWS! Hopefully that will cause a shift in design.

This way Audi will have time to make some much needed changes to the new A8's styling/design. Or a "shift in design" as ultradub suggested. As much as I like the new A8 I have to admit it resembles the Phateon too much. Maybe the "shift in design" will distinguish the new A8 from the Phaeton almost completely. Let's keep our fingers crossed, I guess.

Default hey good for them, maybe they will come up with a worthy product

I mean, damn, can I get some chrome twinkies on that ride? Atleast give me a chance at making it into the next Jay-Z video with A8, yuh heard. You all know Jay-Z video's played on MTV are the gold standard for what's cool ... whatever he's pushing is the epitomy of cool. The Mercedes Benz S-Class, CL, and G Class have all made it into a Jay-Z video, what up with that A8. Damn't Audi have goals.

Well said Tonic Man! I certainly hope so, as I have said before, the car is not ugly, it simply needs the proper branding to set it apart from the Phaeton and hopefully the rest of the luxury brand market!
