Check the downloads section of this website.
There is an RS6 price list with options.

They are more like BMW's now, have to pay for everything as an extra!

Not so.
Nav, leather all standard. You only pick extra what you actually want and value. Seems good policy to me.

It was the types of leather (nappa or natural), optics, sunroof type and trims that decided the prices, the rest was standard. When buying now the specs only extend or reduce the desirability. If you have a good spec then you can punt for a little bit more but not much. Its all about the taste of the buyer, not the seller.

All RS5s come White as standard, any other colour is an extra. Bit extreme init?

I think the new mat paint will be the stuff to go for. Not a wrap, but actual mat paint!

Is it all colours or just black, any pics?
There's an R35 I've seen around Old St London a couple of times now, it's wrapped matt baby/sky blue! Looks crud IMO but hats off to him for doing something different. Not that it really matters, the car sounds the bollox and he'll paste you off the lights, around corners or even on the motorway!
Angry cars those.

I think in the long run you'd regret a matt car. After all, you can never wax or polish it.

Just get a normal car and never wash or wax it. It'll look the same as a matt finish.
They look like they've been painted with cans

Lol!
The only reason I know about the mat black one is that it's at Autoglym at present so they can work out how to advise customers to clean / maintain the finish. Allegedly if you wash it with a SPONGE it scratches...
I'll wait until I see it in the flesh, but I think it will look cool.
It's also going to be on the R8 GT in Suzuka Grey mat effect.

Audi logbook looks interesting anyone got that?
Can't say I've ever seen it on a U.K. car.
