C5 RS6 Plus Sprint blue / seat colour combinations

Post by hislophorticulture » Tue Jul 04, 2023 9:01 pm

Hi everyone I’m new to this forum and have just bought my first C5 RS6 plus in sprint blue. I am considering having the seats re-trimmed but rather than replacing with the cream alcantara centres with black bolsters, thinking of having dark grey alcantara centres (the same colour as the head lining) with black bolsters. I have seen Silver RS6 Plus with this colour, but was it ever an option with the sprint blue cars ? Was there any other fabric / colour combination options from factory with sprint blue paintwork ? I want to keep the car looking as genuine as possible when Replacing tired parts.

Also, does anyone know if the Plus’ exhaust tips were Matt or gloss black finish from factory, as mine are slightly corroded and need renovating / repainting ?

Thanks for any help / comments 😎👍🏻

I am surprised nobody has any info on these 2 topics as I thought everyone on this forum was an Audi RS encyclopaedia.. 🤔

My plus is in grey & has the black interior, sorry, can’t help you there, I also bought it with the after market milltek exhaust already fitted, so no more details there for you. Sorry. (I reckon the exhaust would have been matt, to match the rest of the black optics pack)

IIRC, all the Plusses were on the Audi Exclusive scheme so you could have any body colour in the Audi catalogue and an extended set of interiors.

If you want to do the grey alcantara, I don't see a problem with this since, as you say, it was one of the interiors available.
