Default Audi A5

Today when I was driving to work I spotted a Audi A5. That car really looked nice. It looked even better when I got to see the front of the car where the LED lights were. All I have to say is WOW! It looked really cool; Sexy, sweet, and stands out. It's too bad this wasn't an option for the 370z cause it would of set up the bar a little higher in the looks department. Not that the 370z doesn't look sweet but with a hint of the led lighting it would of made it much more appealing. Hopefully in the future there will be a good professional kits for the 370z led lights. If they make one. If they do and I get the 370z I will for sure get one, unless it's unreasonably priced.

LOL - I also saw an A5 on the way to work yesterday and thought the same thing. Def one of the best looking sport coupes out there. I just wished they had little more power in the S trim. RS5 was supposed to address that but it doesn't look like it's going to be released anytime soon.

We considered this automobile, but parts of it are awkward. Our favorite combination was the S5 in red (gas mileage...don't ask). I do love how Audi has the turn markers in their mirrors.

That's good. Hopefully it won't look cheap and look as good as the A5 and R8.

It looks cool. It needs go vertically. But it's in the right direction. So what if we copy audi. All it matters it looks good. There's a lot of car manufacturers copy from each other. I think it really looks nice and give it a nice touch to the car. It will defenitely set it apart from other cars. Hey at least we're copying audi.

Are you talking about the strip that goes front to back, or just along the bottom like in the Infiniti above me?

If we customize to install vertical or horizontal LED lights in the headlight part, aren't we basically copying Audi style?

I mean what are you going to say when Audi folks accuses you of copying their front LED light?

Its always going to be regarded as step below Audi because we copied them.

Was Audi the first to production, or the first with the idea?

The car is real, he's a g37 forum member and that's no photoshop, the pic was taken using a HDR cam.
