So, what do you think about....... the A5/S5 Sporstback?

I was imagining an A5/S5 with an avant styled rear end when I first heard of the A5/S5 Sportsback, but this is just a beauty to behold. It seems Audi's interpretation of a "Sportsback" in the Coupe/Sedan segment is a lift-back type four door coupe. I already think it looks stunning from the sketches, I will check tomorrow for the release date, I think that it is midway through next year. What I really want to see though is the S5 Sportsback. I love the feeling you get when you are expecting something to be crap and it turns out to be amazing.

I like it a lot. I would buy a cool hatch like this but not a wagon. Funny that way.
I am one of those weird people that will not buy again a van, a SUV (or a wagon) but this is one cool looking and practical sedan. Call it what they want but call me the owner of one in a few years.

But the front end looks exactly the same as the A5.
As far as I can tell, the front end of this sketch is the same as the A5. The article I took it from also had a picture of two other cars, the D4 A8 and the A7, apparently. I assumed from their article that this is the A5 sportsback. I've added the link below. I assume that the second last picture is the A7 and the last picture is the A8. I really do hope that the cars look the same as the pictures. That A8 sketch looks phenomenal. So sleek, sporty and futuristic. Something like that would surely dominate the upper luxury/sport segment. I really can't wait to see all of these cars for real. They never disappoint.<ul><li><a href="http://www.motorauthority.com/gallery/audi-future-lineup-official-sketches/audi-concept-sketch-a8-001.html">http://www.motorauthority.com/gallery/audi-future-lineup-official-sketches/audi-concept-sketch-a8-001.html</a</li></ul>

Its basically just an A5/S5 four door coupe.
That is what it is, I checked the site again just to be sure. The thing is, what would you choose out of the 2 door A5/S5 and the 4 door A5/S5 sporstback? As far as I can see the car has lost none of its beauty and flair in the transformation to a 4 door coupe.
