Default My new A5

This car is so ridiculously beautiful and drives like a dream. Once again, Audi has done it. Thought I would share a couple of pictures.

Default Totally blew that last one.

Didn't realize the pictures were sized to put on posterboard. Haha...sorry about that. This should be better.

Default Yeah..

sucks that mine came with that big, bulky license plate holder. i'm assuming that's a california standard for car dealers because it's "THE LAW" to have a license plate on the front?

are you in a state that doesn't require front license plates? wondering what i could do about this... probably have to replace the whole grill, at least that's what it looks like.

Texas requires a front plate as well but you can order your car with the non-plate panel. I did it with both the S4 and A5 with no issues.

Congrats on the new ride.

Great car...I'm partial to black Audis myself. Hope CARB doesn't go thru with their crazy proposal to ban dark-colored cars here in California.

Looks like Malibu to me. Coastal living at its finest...
