On a couple of Audis, I noticed that when they use their turn signal, the LED of that side turns off as long as the turn signal is on.

Wow, how Ironic to see this thread pop up the day we received several 2011 IS's. I have a few pics to share. These two are the new F-Sport "trim" level IS's (no parts more of a gimmick).

I think you see them one side on only when they have the signal light on the other side...

OP thanks for sharing Pics...

My understanding is that the LEDs on the Audi headlight go off when the driver puts on his/her turn signal. IE: If you are approaching a driver from the opposite direction and he/she is waiting to turn left, you will see LEDs on the passenger headlight and an amber turn signal on the driver's side. To me, it looks a little odd and unbalanced, but I like the way they look when all LEDs are on.

It seems in order for the front bumper to look decent, you will need to have the front lip spoiler (as shown on the F-Sport models compared to the base models). Without it, the front nose sticks out too far from the fog lamp clusters.

Actually, when I saw the wheels in the brochure, I thought they looked so hideous that I considered not buying the car. Now that I see these pictures, they don't look so bad! I'd prefer the F-sport wheels, but I won't buy that package because of the "microfiber" seats.

Hoovey, do you know if there's any way to get the 18" F-sport wheels without the package? Or, how about getting the F-sport package without the "microfiber insert" seats? Any way to do that via special order?

Hoovey,

Do you have any pics of the 250 with F-sport and pics of the window sticker as well?
