HA HA HA. I must resist going to check!!!!

Actually, I did just go check and there is still no way the holes would line up. Maybe its just variation in the molding process. Who knows. I am just happy it looks good.

Installed mine last night and the right two middle holes didn't completely line up. I think it could've worked out but I simply don't have the patience to be down there for another 45 minutes. Fitment is an 8/10 i would say

I don't think there is anything wrong with this height, looks fine to me. I agree that in general, a lowered car looks better in a picture (so from an art perspective really) not going to argue about it but it doesn't look like this height is really bad or 4x4 'ish looking to me.

It makes me happy to see this picture really, I'm ordering a F36 and I'm not planning on changing the height while I have chosen M performance parts on it

Yep. 2 months at best

Guess it's a reasonable trade off for a very mild climate and lots of green trees

Very nice Audi . When I was looking at buying my F36, I was also looking at the A5 Sportsback S-Line (very similar shape and looks awesome with the stock 20" rims). The only thing that really made me choose the BMW over the Audi is the extra 15kW and the fact that I was already in a BMW E92 323 M-Sport and was familiar with BMW and extremely happy with my local BMW service centre (or should that be center? ) In other words, "if it ain't broke don't fix it".

Thank you. If Audi had a nice hatchback I would have stuck with Audi. Alas, us Americans don't get all the cool cars other countries do. I actually prefer Audi over Bmw but the F36 suits my needs for now. I see another convertible in my future!

I'd thought about a S5 Coupé or a TTRS before it was finally the F32...oh, did I mentioned to you, that my kids are already outta the door and I have no need to hold a family lunchhatchbox?
