I am really interested in this color for my A5. Does anyone have pictures or ever seen one in this color?

I have searched the internet for this and have not found one. In person Lava grey is almost black. If you want a true dark grey with no hit of blue or green look at Graphite Grey. This can be ordered under the Audi Exclusive program for $2500

I would argue that Daytona Gray is also a true gray. Up close, it has the pearl effect with other colors in it, but from a slight distance it quickly snaps into a very attractive gray color.

Daytona Gray is also an Audi Exclusive option costing an additional $2500, that is, unless you buy a used one, like the one I have for sale.

Daytona Grey is my favorite color, but it does have a bluish tint. If someone wants a true grey that always looks grey then it's Graphite Grey

Ranger speaks the truth (he should know, he has a beautiful Daytona Gray S5).

This thread is funny as I was also looking for a Lava S5 the other day, but couldn't find a pic (but did find velvet purple, sepang blue, black cherry etc...).

I did have a Lava Gray A3 loaner once though. However, I wouldn't say Lava is almost black; it is a beautiful and complex gray with a brownish hue.
