    2021 District Green Metallic SQ5 - Update

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I bought the car back in April or May, and I haven't really posted anything since. A few random photos here or there, but a local blogger reviewed the car for his page, and he provided me with some great photos of the car from the shoot, so I thought I might as well share some with the Audizine family.

    Current mods are pretty basic:

    Integrated Engineering Carbon Intake
    CETE Lowering Module
    22x10.5 Rohana RC10 +40 with 10mm Spacers all around Powdercoated Satin Bronze
    Carbon Mirror Caps
    Audi Sport Black Exhaust Tips

    I may be biased, but I love how this thing is coming along!

    Real life pics of that green look miles better than the images on Audi's web site, where it looks full army olive drab. Not sure the wheels themselves are my thing, but the color combo is outstanding.

    For some reason Audi changed the color on the website in 2022. This was how it looked back when the ‘21 was on the website:


    If I didn’t know what DGM looked like I would never pick it based solely on the website configurator images they've shown since the '22 model.

    Thanks! The color was something I saw in person first before any online configuration image, so I knew immediately when I saw it, it was the color for me, and with this DGM, the satin bronze was the only option that made sense for wheel finish :) So pleased with the end result!

    Just a quick little update - I go on a lot of road trips for work and need as much space as possible for my marketing materials and tent/tables for our car show setup, so I decided to pull the trigger on a used roof box locally from a buddy.

    Am I cool now? Haha
