+1.

The dash looks like the interior designers gave up, glued two LCDs together and called it a day.

Not feeling it for the dash.

Outside back look sgood.

Front's okay.

I very much prefer the current gen A8 and the future gen A8.

I agree with everyone about the dash, it seems they did not even try to implement the screens at all. I mean, the defined rectangular edge of the screen in that swoopy curvy dash panel. I think it will look alot better if you cannot tell where the screen begins and ends when the car is off, and once powered up, then you see the screen light up...

If the whole thing was flush with no borders, it will look alot better in my opinion! (somewhat like the 2013 Jaguar XJ interior dash), when the jaguar XJ dash is off, i think all you see is a black void.... where the instrument cluster is... not a rectangle border with a black screen in a swoopy hole...





lol there goes my 0.02, even though i am defn not their target market so what do I know lol....

Now that's what I call a panel gap.



Even though I'm not a potential S-Class customer, I hate touch screen function in cars. Give me a good analogue switch any day. If the panel happens to fail part way through a long drive, I'd like to be able to still control basic functions like... y'know, turning on the heater or changing the radio station.

I actually really like the ford touch... Maybe it's better on 13+'s?

I think Lexus really nailed the digital gauge.

It got actual hardware panels that move along depending on setting. Creating the illusion of a multi-layer digital dash without looking boring.

I saw it on a new Lexus IS and it was really really nice.
