I'm going to stick with the masses of Daytona Grey and Carbon Optics... happy with the final choice!

The Black, carbon with extra black badging does look fantastic but keeping it clean would be a nightmare...

The Prism in low light pictures of the RS4 does look very impressive. My spec is now locked in (in my mind anyhow). Orginally I did want estoril, but we know the story re: estoril ;-(

Cheers

Good choice - like I say you can't go wrong with Daytona - it has a lovely purple tinge in the sun when clean...

HOWEVER, if you felt curious - go and have a look at the red one at Newbury - I thought it was just fan,bloody,tastic and would be my choice

good luck

Nardo, it's a bit "airfix grey".... not really keen.

Misano Red was an option, quite in your face.

Red does look good... I'll give you both that... Grey for me... disappear amongst the masses rather than stand out from the crowd.

I just couldn't drive a purple car. It'd be like a massive bruised <beep> hurtling around.

Daytona is nice, but not special enough, or rather once everyone orders it in that spec it won't be
Except that cars is exclusive Titan Silver..... :wink:
