BMW just played it too safe with the G11 and then overcorrected their mistakes with the LCI without putting in more effort outside of the grill. Audi is just bland to me, and the black plastic and touchscreen interior is an OCD person's nightmare, which is why I could never live with a modern Audi interior.

Audis in general I just can't warm up to lol. Nice cars, very solid and well built, but I can't seem to connect with them on an emotional level. I know this is subjective, but I'm sure that is why the A8 doesn't sell. It just has no pedigree or identity.
BMW's G chassis vehicles are very strong products and among the top in their respective segments, but they played it way too safe with the 7-series, inside and out.
