Colours - not black or white

Was having a look at current cars for sale (looking into one of these early next year to compliment my B5 RS4) and it appears there is very little in the way of colour choice.

Was there a limited number of colours as most are black or white (which I dont want) and the rest are seem to be either silver, red or blue?

On that was Sprint blue only available for a short period as again there are very few and there all early cars in that colour?

There one at Fountain that would tick all my boxes (bar the black optics and wheels) and Im very very temped.

Oh and one other question, do S5 peeler wheels fit these cars okay as I have a set on the RS that I would probably look to use on the B8?

Mine is grey (not sure what colour grey) but I think it looks good (but then I would!).

I have 19" peeler wheels as a factory option, but I have no idea if they are the same offset etc as the S5 peeler wheels. So that probably doesn't help much!

Factory ones wont be. S5 are 9in wide and Et33. Factory wheels are 8.5in and et43 I think.

Yeah Ive see the grey's as well. Just not sure on black, had a black car before and it always looked dirty and showed up every little scratch.
