You can see how much lower the new plate mounts versus the stock location.

i didn't mind the German plates but the fat US ones kill the front end look.

If you look here, the 3rd picture in the slideshow shows an Audi with the plate mounted down low...looks so much better:

I don't drive the car daily so I can't believe I've logged over 3600 miles on her already. Of course a 1000 mile tour from Denver down to Albuquerque and back is in the mix, as is a 250 mile tour of the Colorado Rockies. I've used her to commute the the 90-miles from my house to office and back a dozen or so times

Thus far the car is flawless, aside from the driver's side wiper blade leaving a small splat of water in my vision line when it's raining. I've fiddled around with it but the problem persists. I plan on addressing it at the 10k mile service with new blades..

So, Audi Denver had a photo contest for 2017 on their blog, so I submitted a couple entries and wound up being one of the Top 5.

Looks like I'll receive a FREE car wash, detail and a VIP Goody Bag from Audi Denver. Sweet!!!

No, that is due to the A5's extremey peppy, yet efficient, 2.0L TFSI Four-Cylinder Engine
