Ordered an RS6 Performance

[MikeFish]

Still based on standard version as far as I know.

You can see the trim here to some extent:

Thanks Paul
That doesn't look too great in there.

More importantly, that car has only 2 rear seats!!!!!

And that titanium trim is much lighter than I thought. Looks no where near as nice as it does on the configurator! Might need to change the exterior trim! Bugger.

Something had blue carbon inlays before, C6 S6? I cannot recall. As with the seats it's a marmite finish.

the wheels are the same as the R8 LMS

I also speced the car at the dealers and to my disappointment, delivery in may!!!!
As mike i also speced the titanium, looked very nice on the web but now, im going for black trims instead.
How come though that all tze germans already have the cars and us poor scandinavians have to wait soo long time?

I wanted black trim but we aren't allowed to have black trim with black cars in the UK. We have to pay for carbon instead. I don't know what to do now!

Note; the carbon pack is about £3.5k with the performance model but 4.5k with the normal one.

B5 s4 had blue carbon weave, I think it looks good

Weird that they dont allow black trims. Consider the carbon but dont go for blue carbon inside.

Noticed that on the german site they can spec complete set of winter wheels and tires for a really reasonable price, around 3900 euros (same wheels as the cars summer set) this is something not available in sweden...
Getting a bit annoyed about the deliverydate, to wait til may, what the heck, when i asked for about two weeks ago, delivery was around w2-3 of january...

Mike. Stratford Audi have a Nogaro B8 Rs4 for sale and it has the blue carbon in it. I have seen it in the flesh and I actually really like it. It's quite subtle it's not really in your face. Why don't you go over there and have a look. Ask for NIGEL Spragg he's a top man. Drop my name if you like.

[HYFR]

like the blue carbon !

[Eddie555]

If it was my choice. I'd have the blue carbon. Also I'd keep the titanium trim but if I didn't like it I'd get it wrapped black. I wouldn't pay £3,500 for the carbon trim. Also I reckon have the brake calipers done in blue would be a nice touch to go with all the blue interior.

I noticed that the exhaust tips aren't black as the Sport exhaust is on the normal RS6. Isn't that a little bit strange?

I was just looking at that too. The other one for sale has black exhausts.

It could be that the Sports exhaust is optional in some markets on the PE so the photos show a standard spec car? Audi sell a pretty basic spec car in mainland Europe, with much that we get included being optional fitment over there.
