RE: RS4 Colour Comparison (56K - make a cup of tea)
Nice one fella.... makes it easier to judge..... black or possibly yellow for me, the red is not as vibrant as the B5 colour but that may be a photo thing......
Chose Daytona Grey
Though about red but dealer put me off mumbling something about resale value.
Fancied yellow, a bit garish I know, but put off by the thought of it being covered in greenfly etc in the summer.
Black, Mugello and deep green out as I can't see them keeping clean for long and light/Avus silver out as my last 3 cars have been silver.
Sprint blue looks nice in the brochure but too light in reality.
Grey it is then

I found that the Red at Geneva under bright lights faded the shape a little. There are quite a few threads on the forum discussing the low key nature of the body work on the B7 and the red seemed to dull the arches too much for me under the lights. While I want a low key announcement of power in the shape of the car I felt the red went too far.
I also think that the choice of colour changes for me when looking at Avant vs Saloon (not quite sure why). I have gone for the phantom black avant even though I think the mugello blue RS6 avant is fantastic to look at - the same colour just is not working for me when i try to see the RS4 avant in mugello.
The black B5 always made me want to buy the B5 and I have stuck with that first impression for the B7. Horses for courses.
