guys,

im 90% gonna press the button on a RS 3 order .... outright purchase, factory order

spec will be the standard essential stuff

but its the colour I need your help with

there is only 1 free colour, Ibis .... the others for £500 odd quid are Suzuka, Daytona, Phantom, Misano

BUT, I want to go Audi Exclusive

so, suggestions please ....

the only caveat it I will be sellling it when its 6 months old, so need to protect residuals ... so no Lambo orange please !!

any help appreciated

IMHO - Usually best to go with the colour in the press launch or brochure. For a more creative style, look at special editions, i.e. I saw an A1 the other day with Audi Sport decals and orange and black stripes.

Daytona for me but then I would say that.

You loving the sound of the 5pot??

It's awesome isn't it.

The RS3 is the perfect RS for me, now its time for some tuning tho!!!

I'd say Racing mica, but I am biased as mine is being built in that colour this week

I've ordered White but just picked up a TT-RS in Daytona and with the Titanium wheels wish I'd gone for that instead.

saw that too Phil

I recall when we were ordering the old S3s new from Germany back in 2002, there were a few goign special exclusive colors - Ferrari Rosso Red was nice - IIRC you could have any color from any manufacture, at least back then.

After seeing a TT RS in sepang i like that. Clearly you like blue, but i recon suzuka with carbon mirrors, the titanium wheels and black optics may be pretty cool

Just been for a look at mine at my dealer.... roll on Saturday

It is the same spec as Steve's Daytona with Black Optics

They also had

Misano with Ali Pack
Sepang with Ali Pack

IMHO The Daytona looks the best when compared to the above.

I would suggest you get the black optics as it tones in with the wheels and I'm not conviced about the ali pack after seeing it in the flesh for the first time

The Sepang looks excellent but would either be better with silver wheels or the black optics.

im thinking play it safe with daytona and save a grand

You given up on the C6 then?

You getting buckets too.

Paul he's only keeping it for 6 months! The C6 will be after that and by his history it won't be a keeper either

Steve

Then a R8.

I'd say ur spot on with ur prediction.

Mug blue from me.
