Default Who has spotted their clone?

Today I was driving south on I-5 in Irvine and saw an exact copy of my car. I realize a lot of the RS5 guys on here have Nardo but it’s the first match I have seen in the wild. I had mixed feelings...while it was cool to see the car from another perspective it wasn’t as unique as it once was.

Post your clone sightings here.

I guess the price one paid for uniqueness also depreciates as the car has been out longer.

I’m always noticing other B9 A5/S5/RS5 coupes on the road but I have yet to see my clone — another A5 coupe non-S-line in floret silver with the 19” multispoke wheel option. I know there are other ones out there but haven’t seen one yet. Coincidentally I did see a black one yesterday and it looked amazing — normally I do not like black cars.

I have yet to see my clone. Of course since I have a 1 of 1 in the US it is unlikely that I will see my clone

I have yet to see another 2018 RS5 in the 1 year that I've owned mine. Have seen an R8, TTRS, tons of Q5/Q7. and lots of A6/A4s.

I had my fully optioned 2018 Daytona Grey RS5 for almost a year. Live in Toronto.

In that almost full year, I have only seen 1 RS5 Coupe (Mythos Black) and 1 RS5 SB.(Daytona Grey)...

Small numbers in a very large city....feeling a bit special!
