Question Audi - a new logo

Not sure if anyone else has seen the new Audi logo?

This one is the new one



And this is the old



For me, as seems to be the general concensus, the rings look great but the new typeface stinks

I agree the rings are better but the new type sucks the old type is miles better, so a combination of new rings and old type is best - ur poll doesnt have that option tony haha

Not fussed about the new one, but the rings do look more robust.. The typeface is a bit cack though.
