It looks a lot more purpley in natural light, :biggrin2:
I'm guess at £2300 extra...

Dave, if I cut you in half with a samurai sword, would "VAG" be printed around your spinal cord?

I don't like it :) It's not remotely an "RS" blue like sprint or norago.

Much prefer the white. Good decision.

I don't like Mugello either.

Great choice of colour; classy.

Blue (and green) RS-es are for the - shall we say - subtler look and all the better for it in my opinion.

Racing mica IMO looks amazing under showroom lights and or sunny day. But on a normal day looks like a dark blue IMO. I do have pics of it in the normal outside light. IMO doesn't look very special at all then.

Haha this reminds me of a mate who said "Ian_C - born with a B6 S4 brochure" after I FINALLY bought the V8 beast I'd wanted since I saw it at the motorshow back in 2002.....

Wasn't special order 'Cornflower blue' a dead ringer for the original Nogaro 'RS Blau'. Saw an RS3 on Pistonheads recently advertised as Cornflower, didn't manage to save a pic before it was sold.

Edited to add - here we go
