Andrew--
Have you ordered the car in Hibiscus yet? Have you seen any Audi in person with the Hibiscus color? I ask so as not to offend if this is your absolute favorite color.

I haven't ordered. . . yet (more, long)
just thinking about it. I have seen a Hibiscus A4 and I really like the color.
I've gone through the colors I don't like and do like and then thought about what interior to match. It doesn't seem like there are enough interior colors to go with the exterior ones. My first choice is a Dark Blue. The Santorin doesn't do it for me. Not dark enough (I want the Europa which isn't offered for the A4 anymore).
I've got a Pearl White A4, it wasn't my first choice either and a far cry from Dark Blue, but the ecru leather really goes well with it. That's gonna be an extra $1300 on the S4 and I don't really like any of the interior combos with that either, silver ot black.
I'm torn, really. I love the S4. Was great in the Test Drive, but I don't think I could buy any of the Exterior/Interior combos!! Maybe I just need to see a Psychologist and get over it.

Some reds better than others
Andrew--
I just got my S4. Went with Silver with Silver interior (total stealth) and it looks great. I was going to order the Hibiscus until I saw it in daylight on an A4. I thought it looked a little too dull in full sunlight.
I agree that most of the colors are not great. The Nogano blue looks like a matchbox car, and the yellow is pure Police bait! The black/blue interior would be ok for a time, but I question its long term appeal. I almost went with the black leather/silver seude combo, but with a dog and 2 kids, the seude inserts would not have a long time before lookly fairly seedy!
Make sure that you see the Hibiscus in full sunlight before making your decision.

Re: Hibiscus Red - Silver Leather interior.
The quality of the paint job (color and depth) along with the silver (very light gray) is quite dramatic when first seen.... especially in direct sunlight. Everyone says "Wow" or some unprintable variation. The only caveat is - See the interior in person! It is much lighter than the picture in the brochure. Also, keeping it clean has NOT been a problem.
