Audi Q7: The anti-Mercedes R500

Very nice blog post here from Inside Line stating that the Audi Q7 is the anti-Mercedes R500, in all the good ways!

With that in mind, I can't heap enough praise on the Q7 for being everything the Benz is not. But as these blog posts are supposed to pinpoint a single item, I'd like to refer to the Q7's rearview camera. Our R500 does not have a camera (it's doubtless available in a package), rather a series of beeps and dash lights that somehow indicate how close or far you are from something. Annoying, but not that effective.

The huge Q7 has great sight lines, but the camera's there to help. It also has this cool animated deal that, depending on how you turn the wheel, shows you the line you will be following when you back up.
