Hey everyone, I think the title says it all!
I'm placing an order for an S3 saloon tomorrow, and still haven't decided on a colour!
I'm strongly heading towards one of the blues, either ara or navarra but can't pick between them. On one hand the Navarra blue cars I've seen in person seem a little flat/dull. Dodgy english weather contributing? Probably.....but since I live here that's what I'll be seeing most of the time! Ara blue I've only seen on an R8 so of course it was bound to look good, but that was under showroom lighting too. My concern for Ara is that it's too light!
Doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to work out that I'm hinting at a colour in between, but sadly thats not an option. I even asked him to look into getting Sepang blue on it as an audi exclusive, and apparently it's no longer possible. Not sure if this is some avoidance tactic to stop me messing him around or the truth, but they disappeared to call some head office, and according to him future UK orders are standard configurator colours only, so even if you're willing to pay exclusive you can't.
I appreciate it's all personal opinion but if anyone has seen plenty in person feel free to give your two cents!
I'm aware these look nothing like in person, just thought I'd show the colours against the spec I'm lining up as a guideline!
