why is it in some pictures of the car it has the orange amber on the headlights and on others it doesn't? I hate that orange!!!!!!!!!!

All the new 3 and 5 series have removed the orange amber in their headlights and they look so much cleaner.

North American market vehicles usually have amber side markers. DOT regulations.

These people that like the IS-F more than M3 or S5, why do you like it more? What is it about the IS-F that you guys like more? Have you driven an M3 or S5?

I went on the Audi site today. Didn't know the A5 started at 39K. That's for the "slow" 260 hp model. 0 to 60 in 5.8, that's fast enough for me. This car is definitely on my radar.
