Audi Shooting Brake concept

Audi has unveiled a new sport concept car at the Tokyo Auto Show.

thats a ugly jaws re-incarnated front end! Feels like the car is going to open it's mouth and swallow a few pedestrians.

err isn't it the Audi A3?

Shooting Brakes, usually are stationwagon-ish versions of cars having 2 doors, sometimes 4. So I guess this is a A3 Shooting Brake. I like it though.

I love it..I think its a fresh take at making such small cars attractive and its very sexy...Audi's have been great cars, great lookers, but somehow i have never looked at them as prospective buys, but if they use this kind of design platform it would probably come in my future car purchase wishlist as long as they can translate this to the next A6 or an RS version..

but Audi really needs to learn a lesson or 2 from lexus/infiniti/Acura on how to make interiors, audi interior are not all that nice..

This could kill the BMW 1 series. The car looks much better as compared to its rival BMW and Mercedes B-class. Interiors are sporty, love that steering.
