I'm coming from a Volcano Orange metallic 2015 Audi Allroad which I ordered and I have not seen another one like it in the Dallas area.

Any thoughts on what Aventurine Orange Mica would like on the A5 Sportback? Or should I select one of the reds or blues available under the custom paint program?

I actually looked into ordering an Aventurini Orange Mica for an S5 SB, but I wanted red magma leather and thought it would be too "red-ish"... so I opted to go Daytona Pearl. I think "orangey" would look good in the S5...for reference: (2018 Audi S5 Sportback First Drive ? Review ? Car and Driver).

The downside w/ Audi Exclusive is the wait as it adds another ~ 8 weeks on top of the regular ordering process. I placed and A.E. color order for an Allroad on July 2016 and the car was delivered on March 17. Beautiful color ->Sepang Blue. which is another great color for the S5.

Hi Fdvigna - I love your Sepang Blue Allroad. We ordered that color over rock gray as my wife's next car. Super excited about it.

Thanks

Order placed 05/12

S5 SB Prestige
Daytona Gray
Black w/ alcantara inserts
19" Cavo Wheels
Driver assistance
S Sport Package

Actively looking for in-stock before order arrives. The alcantara is making it difficult as most have the nappa leather option

Where did you order yours? Were you able to negotiate discount?

I ordered nearly the exact same car.. except Mythos Black and no drivers assistance package. I tossed and turned over the choice between black and daytona gray.

Put in a S5 order on May 8 and received a production date this week.
Production week: 30 S5 should arrive in Seattle sometimes mid to late Aug.
