And FON.... :thumbs:

Welcome to the club. Daytona is indeed a nice colour, my TDi Quattro B8 was Daytona & would look amazeballs when cleaned nicely.

For some reason, I'm not so much of a fan of Daytona on the RS. I would however love to have a Daytona RS4 in the special matt finish paint, if it weren't such an apparent bitch to look after.
It's all torque talk.

It took me a long time to decide on the colour.
The one I test drove was Suzuka grey. Did not like it at first but it grew on me by the end of the day.

My last car was q7 4.2 TDI really liked it but sold it to build an extension and just used my wife's toyota aygo in between times lol. Also have a bike to keep me entertained.

I picked up my new RS4 last week with very similar spec and identical exterior options (daytona, black optics, titanium rotors). It looks great although I think a bit of colour from red calipers would have really suited. Might even get them done after market. A couple of pics for you...

Don't mean to push more options on you but I just realised you haven't spec'd privacy glass which I think is a must with the black pack

I called highland audi today to see if it was possible to change a couple of bits on my spec.
I fancied the Nappa leather seats and the garage door opener additional to my original order.
The original date for collection was week 4 2015, now with the changes It looks like I will get it week 43 2014
Delighted that the date has been brought forward.
