Default Which model year A5 had exhaust on both sides?

I recall seeing A5's with a single exhaust on both sides, I droce by the audi dealership (I am in the USA), and all the non-S models have dual exhaust on the left. Which model year had the single exhaust on both ends?

Thank you!

P.S: Looks like it's the 2008 and 2009 year models. What a pity they changed that, the whole look looks lop sided to me

I never noticed that, good point. Was it dual (one on each side) with just v6s maybe? i havent looked TOO close but i don't really recall seeing any 2.0Ts with dual side exhaust

I'm about 95% certain that every model year has had dual exhaust tips; it just depends upon the engine.

The 3.0 liter V6's have tips on both sides, think they ran from 2008 to mid 2010. I had one so I can confirm it.

Thank you all

I got myself a 2009 V6 with the exhaust on both sides and love the vehicle. The only issue is the jerkiness when it comes to complete stop (More to do with transmisson than the brakes I think). Handles very well, this is from a guy who is driving a Porsche 911 (actually for the last 8 years). A nice handling and much more comfortable cruiser for me....love it!

I have an 2009 A5 S-Line that has dual exhaust pipes, on both sides of the rear end. The A5 2.0 T engine version has two pipes, but are on the left side.
