I have a confession to make. I have finally now realized my allroad is atlas grey, not alpaka beige.

Default I have a confession to make. I have finally now realized my allroad is atlas grey, not alpaka beige.
...I had my suspicions it was atlas when I bought it since the taupe colors of the paint were only present in the right light, but pictures I'd seen of alpaka had me convinced that was what we had. I checked the paint code in preparation for needing a mirror repainted, and sure enough, it's atlas grey.

Below is the only pic I have loaded up that shows the paint at all (with what a long time ago were new 245/50-17 Dunlop SP5000's, and which as of about a week ago are again new on my allroad).

Well, that depends on whether he's driving towards you or away from you.
