Default Scuba blue metallic vs Moonlight blue metallic

Hi. I currently in process of searching fir my first Audi. I am leaning towards the A5 cabriolet and am deciding between scuba blue or moonlight blue. Both are nice and the moonlight looks to be more of a black while scuba is more flashy and a brighter blue. I sort of like the flashier scuba blue although the moon,igniting is classy. Anyone have any opinions between the 2?

Note I’d I go for the A3 cabriolet I really liked the cosmos blue metallic.

Thanks for any opinions.

Scuba blue is brighter, but I still wouldn't call it a "bright" blue. At night it might as well be black. I'm so frustrated Audi blue colors are always so dark. I abandoned blue for this reason and got red.

Thanks I hear you. I like the midnight blue but when I saw scuba, which is also more limited, I liked it since it was more bluish.

What ate your thought on the Cosmos blue the A3 offers.

I think the scuba blue is going to show less dirt, I have manhattan gray, I wanted a dark gray this time since I have had so many silver vehicles. And I do enjoy detailing my cars but , the darker manhattan gray and I think the moonlight blue are harder to maintain. The darker color also makes the car warmer inside. I vote Scuba, its fun and lively people can see it. In my case also my salesman found a car that was optioned exactly the way I wanted it in the manhattan darker color so between the vehicles in stock each different color also had different options.

Thanks. I am leaning towards that, This will be my first Audi and my first convertible and want it to be fun. I think the one available in it had atlas beige. There may be another one with different specifications with gray.

This car has everything with the exception of the upgraded sound system. My A3 cabriolet in Cosmos blue which is an option also had the premium sound system.

Thanks! I was thinking the same thing. I think with the blue it will look nice. My current car is black and it gets so dirty. Very nice but I am hoping the atlas beige is good. Appreciate the feedback. Just waiting for car to get in do I can proceed with the deal ( after I test drive).
