I am one who likes solid paint finishes, I don't like metallic at all. This is a car that I would like to buy in silver, black, or white and they don't offer any of those colors unless they are metallic. Getting the car painted of course is not an option. Do they offer more colors if you special order? I know some companies you can do that, but I am not sure if they are willing to do that.

Default You need to get your dealer to show you some of the real paint chips in the sun.......

I was going to get Sprint Blue until I saw the Daytona 4x4 chips in daylight. I picked up the car Monday it looks amazing with the silver leather and carbon.

Default you can special order any Audi paint color.

in your case, brilliant black or ibis white would probably meet your needs. it's now $3000 for special order paint, IIRC.

Default I really wish mine was Brilliant Black but I couldn't stand the wait and ...

the Brilliant Black is a swirl-mark and minor scratch magnet.

Default Frankly, Phantom Black IMO is almost Brilliant Black. I had Volcano Black, and prefer 'metallic'

I prefer Metallic blacks personally, and I don't find Phantom to have much metallic fleck to it at all under most circumstances.

Have you seen it in person? You might find it close enough to your liking..
