I got a red one. No regrets. The colour makes it stand out a bit, otherwise easy to mistake for an s-line.

Go for the colour you like.

Also got a red one (avant) no regrets at all, just wanted to get away from black and silver for a change, would have gone for white if I could have found one though... as above go for the colour you like the car is great

I know it's a photoshop but those wheels on that suspension height look pathetic.

I have black but prefer the bright colours. Black is quite dull but in fairness they are quicker in that colour... :D

Why "pathetic" out of interest, not that I have any interest in changing my wheels or lowering my car but I don't see it as pathetic!?!?

Bought red one 07 one month ago, looked at two on the day, a daytona grey and Misano, grey looked so boring in comparison, well pleased with my decision......Go for it...

Thanks for all your support and.. "honest feedback"?! I went and had another look on Sunday.. I was passed on my way by both a black one and a grey one on the A14/M1.. Made my mind up!! Red definitely stands out!

Picked it up last night.. I haven't got out yet.. drove 800 miles to find a wifi hotspot...

I have a Misano pearl red RS4 Avant, bought it new from Dundee Audi in March this year. Personaly, I love the colour and it certainly seems to get many admiring glances. Everyones choices are different, I'd never go for a yellow one, but others do - so the choice is yours.

I've got a red one with privacy glass all round. I love the colour to be honest as the blacks etc are just to dull for me. But as what people are saying, everyone is different and you'll know in your gut when you see one if its right for you.

Personally Im delighted I went for a red one - had been looking for sprint blue but when I seen the red, I got the feeling...in the gut...ye know? :lol:

In hindsight, if I had to choose again, I'd pick red. Just love it!

Enjoy!

Hi there..

I was thinking about tints, have you got a pic of yours?, and was it from the factory or done since purchase?

Perhaps reading through this again 'pathetic' was the wrong word to use. I just think carrying out these type of modifications to an already perfect looking car is totally out of character to what the RS4 is all about. I honestly feel by doing this you are ruining the looks and making the car look like something out of the 'Fast and Furious'.
