Pearl White photos anyone?
 
I'm thinking of getting a Pearl White S4 with silver interior, but I have yet to see any actual pictures of one. Does anyone out there actually have a Pearl S4 that can download some pictures onto this site.

Also, I've been getting mixed signals from different dealerships here in the SF Bay Area regarding the availability and additional price of the Pearl White. I've heard that it's an additional $1200 MSRP. Is this true? Thanks for any help.

Pearl white is a $1200 option - I'm in so cal but have a pearl 2.8 in for service ;-)

I have one (pic)
 
Nobody seems sure how many pearl white S4's are being imported, but they definitely exist. My dealer (who I don't believe) told me there were only 10 imported. Others have said 20. But there have been too many reports for that to be true - but there aren't very many. It still doesn't show up in the catalog or on the web site.

I got mine in mid-Oct, the first one reported on this board. It is definitely a $1200 option. I'm looking at my window sticker as I type this.

A few people report they've been able to order pearl white from a dealer. A number of unordered cars - "they just appeared" - have been reported at various dealers. Almost all have had onyx interiors, but at least one has been reported with silver leather. I've never heard of a pearl with an Alcantara interior, however.

Supposedly, the dealer cannot order pearl white directly. He has to go through his zone rep, and at least at the beginning, not all the zone reps knew about the procedure. I would assume that they do by now. The order code for pearl white is available on the Kelly's Blue Book site. Look up the S4, and they show it there. They also say it's no extra charge, and that info is WRONG. I was told that if you order, it will take one week longer because of the extra work involved in the paint job.

I have a pearl white/silver. It's a beautiful combo. My dealer had a pearl/onyx as well, and I MUCH prefered the silver interior. If you can find one, go for it. I get lots of comments on the color combo. It's very sharp in person.

DMoore, thanks for the picture of your Pearl White S4. It is a beautiful color and I'm definately leaning that way. If you have any other shots from different angles, I'd love to see them. Thanks again.

<center><img src="http://131.107.68.28/AudiWorldPics/1999/pearlS4_2.jpg"></center><p>Here's another photo. This is my sixth white quattro, the fifth pearl white. I've had two pearl white Coupe quattro's, '90 and '91; a '94 90S 2.8 12v, a '96 A4 2.8 12v, and a '98 A4 2.8 30v. I drove everyone involved crazy in my quest for a pearl white S4.

The wheels (if you care) are Ronal R-7 17" with stock Bridgestones. I'm running 16" R-28s with 205/55-16 Pirelli 210A snow tires for winter.
