Got to be hasn't it? The only other colour I can think it might be is Cornflower as on early 8L A3 1.8T Sports and the infamous special order RS3 that DK Engineering had for sale - edit now owned by 45bvtc on this very forum - JOhn I think his name is.

I bet that RS4 is Noggy though, and yes it looks stunning!
You're right Ian his name is John ,heres a photo of that special order Cornflower Blue RS3 {Bluey} when they came to see me today.[URL=http://s898.photobucket.com/user/r ... .jpg[/img]/url]

Heard it was an £8,000 premium for the nogaro edition. Anyone figure out where that goes? Is it seriously just the paint and blue fabric inside?

No power... No options included with it... Just some blue? Weird.

I guess this is why nogaro was banned from exclusive orders for a while.

I'm missing it a bit, i enjoyed owning it and the ride was better when i put F1's on it but was still to hard for my back.I love the S5 the best bit is being able to change the set up of the car at the push of a switch its like having the best of both worlds.Audi really need to put adaptive suspension on all their RS models why they didn't do it on the new RSQ3 baffles me,if the next RS3 has it i will be first in the Que as i don't really need a large car.

Audi has assumed "limited edition" makes it more exclusive = more desirable. But it's a hefty premium for nothing more than colour and blue alcantara.......

Plus you can spec red brake callipers (about 400 quid) as part of a base build, so even less of a special edition....

Didn't know this. Wonder if they'd still allow Cornflower.....

I spoke to a senior Audi UK person at an event recently and there are 37 RHD Nogaro editions for the UK, so pretty exclusive.
A lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Just "keeping it real" - I've ordered a Nogaro Blue car for the showroom display. It's got the sports package and V-spokes, but not the red brake callipers or buckets. Why? I don't think it needs ALL of the gear featured on the Ltd Ed to sell in that colour…

In essence you can have the drive and look of that car for around £63000 (more if you really need the buckets and so on) which becomes better value for money.

Agree with that. The Nogaro RS4's paint at Goodwood was fooked. Regular correction required.
