We give an example of a non‐trivial asymptotic representation of the reduced C*‐algebra of a free group. This example allows us to evaluate the asymptotic tensor C*‐norm of some elements in tensor product C*‐algebras and to show semi‐invertibility of the non‐invertible extension of C* r ( 2 ) considered by Haagerup and Thorbjørnsen.
