I'm not sure what year the A5 I saw but I saw an A5 with LED tails. I couldn't tell if it what year or size of the wheels. Hope this helps.

you need to get the premium plus or prestige packages to get the led tails add the sport package and you get 19's or just get an s5... you get all of the above

oh... and if it were me i would choose a5 2.0t six speed. chip it drop it on 19's and call it a day oh damn just saw the 09... this is for 2010 a5's

I'm not sure but I'm thinking:
A5 2.0 TFSI S-line and S5 with 7-speed S-tronic (not the one with stick shift)

Lolz wtf?

That's like one step forward then two steps backward. I say that cause our old 1997 Nissan Sentra Series III has power folding mirrors. To hear that a premium car in this day-and-age would not have something that our old car has as standard (and 10+ years ago in fact).

I really can't believe that

thanks for the responses guys -- so all or most 09's have them?

to clarify -- I'm looking at buying a used low mileage A5(or a killer deal on an S5, but not likely) -- its hard to tell from autotrader if the tails are LED or not (none are illuminated in pics).

I don't really mind if its the 2.0t or the 3.2, as long as it has the 19's + LED's

you could check out how much it would cost to retro fit the LED's on a non LED car...might be cheaper than buying an 09 just for that

I did start checking on that....I don't think its an easy swap...requires a different harness + some kind of re-programming

As what I read here:

Quote:
2010 Audi A5 NEW LED tail lights.
These taillights will be on both A5 and S5 models as well as the sedans.
Not sure if it's true.
