From what I understand, the ABT car is Granatrot red metallic, which audi offer as exclusive on the RS6 and a cheaper standard colour on other models. It's a lovely colourhlbeckley wrote:This looks awesome to me!HYFR wrote:is this Misano red, or Brilliant red .... it looks awesome !
50% of the ones I have seen have been red, rest is Suzuka which just doesn't pop for me and then sepang which is niiiice but....
I think imola will look hot too
If you have the cash and patience, how about this ABT red off their RS5-R Looks great with optics

Re: Torn on what colour to order
Question, can Audi guarantee delivery with exclusive paint in the required time scale?
Re: Torn on what colour to order
Ah, so how's that going to work? Can't see dealer wanting to be left with an Imola or Java car! Asking for extra deposit?
Re: Torn on what colour to order
Think in terms of several months for exclusive; mine took 7 and it was an Audi colour.doodlebug wrote:Question, can Audi guarantee delivery with exclusive paint in the required time scale?

I'd have changed my mind at least half a dozen times in 7 months

Re: Torn on what colour to order
I chose Nogaro more because I'm intending on keeping it for a long time,
but if I was like you Dave and was only going to keep it for the duration of the finance term and then give it back, i would have had it in either
Java green to be totally different or Samoa Orange but i also think Imola yellow would look the nuts, gotta have the black optics too.
Whatever you choose i think it'll look awesome.

Clearly you cannot read, no surprises though.carsarecool wrote:...If you are looking to sell it anytime soon. Sepang, Black, Ibis, Prism will be easy to shift.
Java, you know you want to...
No matter where you go, there you are.
Re: Torn on what colour to order
No car or build date yet Silas only ordered it late december so looking around April time.
Would be great to see a java green RS4.

Not sure on java, reckon that would be a nightmare to sell on, looking forward to seeing yours, what spec you gone for ?No car or build date yet Silas only ordered it late december so looking around April time.

Re: Torn on what colour to order
That seems optimistic even with standard paint. I reckon you'd be looking at June.Outtlaw wrote:No car or build date yet Silas only ordered it late december so looking around April time.

Re: Torn on what colour to order
For all you Noggy lovers I was in my stealers today and this was in the showroom


It's up for sale as a stock car but have no details on price other than it's got a good spec. They wouldn't do a deal on with me for a couple of months until the RS6 arrives. They also told me that they have got an S3 in Rivera Blue on order as well for stock and well as something in Java Green, not an RS4 I might add.
