What color did you do on the interior? You MUST post pictures when the car arrives.
I absolutely will post pics! Seats are "cloudy gray" nappa leather and the contrasted stitching on the seats are "smokey blue" same colors apply to center console and steering wheel. They really do go well together. 3 months would have been the wait time but Amanda from VIP sales at AoA is expediting it so 2months is what I'm told.

Looks great! Nice to see something refreshing added to the typical black/white/grey palet.

Nice... I had my 2005 S4 Avant custom painted the same color.

Most people confuse it with the standard dolphin gray from a distance, but in the sunlight, it is a more visible dolphin "blue" with flecks of purple and blue.

Northern blue in foreground & dolphin gray in background.

Another B6 S4 sedan purchaser had also custom ordered (2) of his S4's in the Northern Blue Pearl effect color as well.

It's good to be different, but the pricing has gone up from $1500 to $3900. I wonder if you could custom order a manual transmission on U.S. cars that were only released as automatics...

Snopyro, thanks for these. I appreciate more views of the color. Yep as with most things Audi that price has gone up. It looks like it has held up pretty good for you! I love how it looks in the sun, I'm pretty excited and will probably stare at it in the garage all night when it gets delivered!

I like the colour.

That said, I ordered a RS5 2014 with Sepang Blue sight unseen. I'm willing to take the gamble. It will be the second one ordered in my city...and will look uber rare. Oh, and I got the Beaufort inlay with lunar silver seats and the titanium package. All in all, I know it will be beauty on wheels.
