Hehe. Anyway, this 3 door facelift still looks kinda dated. Why haven't Audi do anything to the rear? csv was right. The Sportback's butt does looks better. I'm still a fan or the RS4 though. mitlanevo, I see your point there. Hehe.

According to a survey carried out in EC, motorvehicles outfitted or with switched on headlamps, actually reduces the numbers of accidents, whether it is foggy or in twilight condition. Similarly,our G adopted such good practices on our motocycle users. Unlike some of our local car assemblers and manufacturers, some cosmetic features are just as it is named - cosmetic only. No added value. Take for example the super ugly rear spoiler of the accent, or its comrades - the sonata and elantra, with painted over red strips on their rear spoilers, or the blue backgound light of the Iswara aeroback..which have no function worthy except for cosmetic purposes.. Nvtheless, since the consumers here are so easily bought by such things, the local car boyz will continue to reap in profit from them.. Offer + Acceptance= Deal.
