need lighting advice............
just got my 05 avant last night and really hate the headlights(stock). I had xenons on last a4 and am wondering what may be my options? Can i upgrade to xenons? I've heard you could but they will not level like my old ones did. How much for a decent kit? Is there a bulb for my stock halogens that may be comparable to xenons and less expensive.? I did a search and can't figure out peoples views.

I replaced my stock halogens with Hoen Titanium bulbs.

I agree. I felt bad seeing Ford Focus and Toyota Echo with Xenon when I had Halogen.
Its retarded for them not to be standard equipment. A4s are luxury cars (they're certainly not fast) and Xenon is a luxury, so what part of that equation makes them not come with xenon as standard?
However, do you feel like you have any problems with the Hoens? When I had them I realized that they were nowhere near as bright as the stock Halogen bilbs. You can see in that picture how the stock bulbs is reflecting more light than the Hoen bulb.
