Sven Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Nice enough colour methinks. Looks a bit like Paul's no? Is your's cashmere Paul? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulW Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Mine is Cashmere Mica Gray..... It's a great color, changes from brown to grey to almost a weird purple depending on the light. Pretty unique too. Now if I could only find it in a S8! Okay, okay, I'll stop now.....love my car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser647 Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Mine is in Cashmere. A fine colour. I did not want a silver one, as I think A8's do not look good in Silver. Silver seems to change the shape of the car? Dark colours are good. The burgundy is great. So for me, it would be a toss up between the burgundy and the cashmere (but not silver and not the light metallic blue). As always, just my own opinion!

rterry Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I'd have to disagree on the Silver thing (well someone had to ), I think Silver looks really good on the car, and also hides the dirt pretty well, which is a bonus ! Having said that, I think it's the complete package that makes the car - it's not just the colour, it's the wheels and the window tinting as well. Anyway, attached is an image of my car so you can see what I mean and draw your own conclusions. Ultimately it doesn't matter what colour you choose - the car seems to wear all colours extremely well ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulW Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I love the Burgandy.....here some pics of a S8 on ebay.com right now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botang Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Sorry to hijack your post but can somebody tell me what colour mine actually is, it was described to me as saphire blue metallic, is that really an Audi colour? Its a Blue/Grey metallic colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Below a chart with all the Audi A8 colours between '95-'99 Look up the code on the sticker and you'll know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botang Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Still confused On my sticker it says; Paint No./Interior LYZL/LYZL N3Q BT But cant find LYZL as a paint colour? N3Q BT relates to Anthracite Leather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Drop the first L, that means nothing (just "Lack"). Couldn't it be Y7L? The print on these stickers can be confusiating... YZL is not to be found at all in Etka ("paintcode unknown"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 See if I can find Agate Grey, but it doesn't sound odd IMO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Hmm, no four rings, but it's got the same engine... Agate Grey Spyker. Well? Obviously the light conditions are very different, but it could be no? Spyker web page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botang Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Yeah it certainly looks similar, but its deffinately LYZL look linky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 How odd! It's not an existing Audi colour in the entire model range, I did a search for all Audi models in Etka, and no deal... (see attachment). So either a misprint, or a special order I guess? Maybe check with the dealer how they ordered or mixed the paint for the respray?
