Default Panther Black Crystal

I am contemplating on what color to choose for when I place an order, but I came cross on Audi's website the RS5 has the color option of Panther Black Crystal. Does anyone know if there is an S6 with that color? I am only assuming that is a special order. Correct me if I'm wrong. It would look killer with the Black Optics package too!

IMO, not worth $3900 extra for black with slight purple hue in sunlight. Color not that nice in person. Have seen it several times. It has been a standard color for A8's and R8's in the past.

$2500 option. I think its an awesome color and the only black I would get to be honest. However, I think the A/S6 is too big a car to pull that off. I saw it on the SQ5 at the auto show and it looked great on that. I sold a TTRS that was this color and it was a perfect match.

There is so much confusion on exclusive colors. Not available/available/$2500/$3900.

I have seen posted in numerous threads that exclusive is $3900 for 2014 even including current VAG colors, and now you say it's still $2500.

Is this the definitive answer?

You know what, I stand corrected. Its on the new order guide that just came out. $3900, Dayum!

Yeah, you really need to know you want an exclusive color now.

That sucks. Audi must be trying to discourage custom colors?

I dont know about that, it used to be $2500 for custom Audi color, $4500 for any color in the VW spectrum(porsche, bentley, lambo etc.) and $10500 for any color a customer wanted.

I cant imagine what they are looking for in terms of costs for the latter two now.

I guess they dont call it "exclusive" for nothing.
