wow, that thing is hideous. out of proportion mutt of automotivdom. looks like the drunken mistake of a MINI, mazda 3, audi TT, , audi A3, VW eos Roman orgy. it has a pig snout that is too tall for the height of the roofline and just plain old ugly

pic for those who havent seen

Looks like Audi's answer to the Dodge Caliber, with those big tires and wheels...

No, it's just a concept that's probably closest to a production model so far.

It could be cool in person. I loooove the little Volvo hatches and the shape is a little similar.

I've seen a few A2's in person. Funny looking but cute.

From the windshield back, I like it. Audi should get of their giant grills, it has ruined the looks of all their cars. The headlights are just pitiful the way they wrap back, could be mistaken for any number of Japanese cars with bad styling.

I guess I'm part of the minority who likes it! I'd have to see it in person though. I thought I liked the 1 series till I saw it in person...
