Default OEM air filter after 25K miles

Actually, I thought it would look worse than this.

What your air filter looks like all depends on where you drive.

Default would you say this one looked dirty, or was it OK to still use it?

The reason I replaced it is because I thought that the 40K mile air filter change interval suggested by Audi was a bit much...
