very nice! I think theres some one on here that has had there A3 resprayed Suzuka Grey and theres a couple of S3
jamiekip has a very nice looking TTRS in suzuka grey
Quite agree wesley i love it,has a lot of comments from nabours as to what colour it is and why it changes colour so much in different light. but is it worth the extra dosh? read here somewhere that a forum member was pulled by police, and as you know at night in headlights the car looks white but the police computer shows car as being gray!!, don't need that.
I had the same problem with the photos, i've just purchased a polarizing filter for my Nikon camera as this dose help eliminate the problem, will upload results when i've washed the car next.

Suzuka is a great colour - under rated in my opinion and a shame it's reserved as standard spec on RS only and is Exclusive across the rest of the range.
What products are you using on the car?
I've been trying some different products and have come back to Werkstat Acylic (used this on my Sprint S3 too) as it really brings the flake in the paint alive, lots of pop, lot's of shine and lot's of definition,
One thing I have found (after only 2300 miles) is that the paint can stain quite easily, bird cr@p, tar and god knows what all had to be lifted with autosmart tardis and a clay bar.... not going to enjoy doing that so frequently...
The dealership in Nottingham had a white theme going and every car was ibis but the TTRS, that was in the Suz Grey and stood out really well, i'm a huge fan of all things white but would not moan about having the exclusivity of the grey.
one thing though, if its a black edition where is your flat bottom steering wheel? don't you get that if you have the premium leather set?

I should have some final results pic's from Inters this weekend
You are correct Richy, the flat bottom steering wheel is standard on all black editions models unless you have the premium leather upgrade, this worked out ok as my wife wasnt keen on the flat bottom one on the demo model. As you can see in my pics the seats, steering wheel and gear stick and door inserts are all dressed in the same nap leather.
(smells great).

What Willmac said - contact Polished Bliss for the Werkstat stuff and for advice - they always have time to help and point in the right direction and are completely honest in recommendations rather than pointing you to the most expensive stuff. They'll tell you all you need to know
The perma shine is probably autoglym 'life shine' which is basically the stuff you can buy for £30 in Halfrauds... it's won't last for life and can be removed pretty easily.
EDIT - I should have some final results pic's from Inters this weekend
Also you went for the Alu look inlays not the piano black, looks really nice, like the silver stitching on the wheel.
As for the clay, looks like i'm going to have to purchase some of this also now, dam you guys your making me spend so much more money!! lol
Hi RichyId go with this, there was a post on here where someone had it applied and its looked shocking and took 4 hours to polish it all off again himself. The more layers the better in my mind.
Hi Richy
it looks fine, great shine, having said that Ive only got the Audi salesman's word it was done in the fist place as he said he couldn't give me any paper work for the 5 year warranty on the work as it had been done for me f.o.c.( aren't i the lucky one, when you spend £28000 its the least you'd expect). how can i tell?
cant work out why i cant upload photos now-
