Well, it's finally here. After waiting 8-ish months since placing my exclusive color order, my 2019 RS5 Sportback has arrived and I can finally start taking part in this thread

Picking a color I've never seen in person was a little nerve wracking but I couldn't be happier with my choice now that it is here. I really like how it changes in different lighting.

Modifications done so far:

• F1 Stratos tint
• Full SunTek Ultra PPF with a few sections using their new Ultra Defense PPF
• Euro rear headrests
• Removed the RS5 badges from the front and rear
• Replaced the chrome rear rings and side badges/wings with the gloss black versions

I personally don't like the gloss black rings on the front grill but I think I might try and plasti-dip the front rings to gun metal or something along those lines to tone down the chrome some.

The only other things on my to get list right now are some all weather mats up front and in the trunk. After that, my wallet really needs a break and some recovery time hehe.

As long as they approve it, you can order pretty much whatever color you'd like via the Audi Exclusive program assuming exclusive options are available for the Audi model you're wanting to buy (Typically S and RS models). You can also do custom interiors via the exclusive program too.

To add an exclusive color to an RS5. you would have to add $3,900 to your build. Interior customizations have their own pricing schedule on top of a exclusive color cost. If you selected all the available exclusive customization options for a RS5, you're looking at adding almost $13,000 to your build.

The car looks awesome!!! Good for you showing the patience to wait for exactly what you want, most of us don't have that will power anymore.

Glad I was able to help you out with the pics of my Garnet Red Pearl S7, it is an amazing color. And you will probably notice that our color cuts through the wind much faster due to a lower coefficient of friction

@heymoe Gorgeous color, hope you enjoy the car for a long time in good health.
