What colours did the S3 come in?

[MikeA3]

Browsing the bay and saw this ad, i've never seen an S3 in this colour before so i wasn't sure if it had been re-sprayed or did it leave the factory like this?

Ive never seen one in that colour either, although mettalic paint was an optional extra so it might be a factory colour!!

Just forget the name of the colour...was it blueberry something??

But it was a special order colour from one of the other range of cars...i'm thinking it was the A4

There is a post somewhere on here with a full list of standard colours - tried to search for it but couldn't find it. I know later in the model life (2002 onwards?) you could order one in any colour you wanted provided you were happy to wait for it to be specially made.

I Believe thats "Hibiscus Red"
Its the same colour as my s4:

I remember there being hibiscus red amongst others on the A3 colour palette, you could also order lifestyle colours for a £1000 premium
