Ian_C Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 not a fan of carbon fibre unless it is serving a purpose. stuck to the dashboard it aint serving a purpose Carbon is a no cost option, so you could go with the default carbon, buy the piano inlays yourself, swap them, sell the carbon privately. There would be plenty of takers, the central piece around the gear selector is huge, a full set would be fortune from Audi, even on the B7 RS4 all the pieces total about 1500 from Audi. One way of looking at it would be that this would pay for ticking a few more options you might be deliberating over Jon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet if you checked the parts prices there will be bugger all on it. with my cack handedness it would take me hours to do, and I could make a lot more money in that time selling insurance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Assume the iPhones lack of SAP still causes a problem.... Well Volkswagen have been releasing info on the iBeetle!!!! Which is a fully iphone 5 compatible car apparently, so it is possible Audi bothered to get off their ars3 and make their car work with old hat technology as well! I couldn't order the RS6 in grey, it just looks plain drab, worse in fact, and Matt would look worse, plus you need to rely on the Matt at the expertise of your local Audi Retailer - lets face it they struggle with pearl and metallic, imagine what they could do to Matt!!! If I were ordering something like this (and at 85k it'll be a good while before I am), my colours of choice would be Volkswagens Lemon Yellow, Audis Citrus Yellow, Audi Papaya Orange, there also used to be a Lifestyle colour which was a kid of duck egg blue which would look quite cool, I know it would destroy resale, but so what i'd rather have looks good (in my eyes) that blend in with the masses!!!

shao_khan Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Thanks. I think it would probably suit something like Alpine green - not quite as in your face as java. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Oh, and I'm also not a fan of the 'quilted' look seats - I think the seat shape is wrong and looks a bit odd - I get it on luxury cars with the 'non sporty' seats, but I just don't see it on the sports seats.

patently Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I'm with SK. Grey is dull, get some colour in your life. OK maybe not yellow for a big car like this, but something nice at least. Not Accountant Grey or Undertaker Black. I tried to get the Disco in red, settled for green in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shao_khan Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Yeah so in order to have a nice looking grey RS6 it needs you to spend 14hours per weekend waxing it. alternatively have a nice colour RS6 and it looks good regardless of wax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insurance Jon Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 unfortunately it needs to be a safe colour as i'll only be keeping until the new ffrr starts discounting. which will be about 6-9m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One identical to this on a 13 plate flashed past me yesterday. Certainly eyecatching, but my thought was what a tool you'd look stepping out of it wearing a smart business suit...which I suspect Jon does regularly. May be a lame reason for not chosing the colour, but looked too chavvy for a top end motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
