100% Mikeru. EVERY time there is a new generation spotted even in minor camo, seems EVERYONE says it looks like a, pick your manufacturer, ALWAYS looks worse than previous generations, Wait until the reveal, wait until you see it in person and actually drive it, THEN make your decision.

I also am seeing the inner and outer sections of the headlights and tail lights are covered too.

The whole front bumper is covered in a single piece of cladding and judging by the huge gaps around the headlights, it looks the front fenders are too.The rear bumper and hatch are too. Plus, black is really good at hiding body lines.

Not a fan based on the shots posted here so far. Looks very blah, nothing in the design that separates it from the crowd and makes me want to do a double take.
I realize that not all trim levels are expected to be head turners, but they are going to have to make some major tweaks to get an RS version looking like it is worthy of the RS badging. Can it be done? Sure. Will it be done? Only time will tell.
That said, I'll reserve final judgement until it's actually released.

I still miss my 02 S6 but not enough to buy an RS6.
Not that I would ever want / need / desire a station wagon type of car, but that styling does not “offend” my eyes. It certainly is more appealing than some of the offerings from other European manufacturers.
As always — YMMV!

The base B9.5 A5 looks pretty good, and I would say better than the pics of the B10 posted so far.
I feel like a base B9.5 A5 just needs the right wheels to make it turn heads while I think it would take more than wheels on the B10. The B9.5 has sharper (more pronounced) body lines while the B10 looks softer to me.
I am also looking forward to seeing a non-avant format too. The '78 Pontiac wagon my parents had while I was growing up ruined wagons for me, so maybe that is impacting my opinion.
Obviously, I may change my mind on its exterior design once its released in all its glory.
