Shiraz Red - Yes or No?

[ScottishA4B9]

Hi all
So my search for an A3 continues.....
I came across this A3 which seems nice but is Shiraz red.
What’s everyone’s thoughts on the colour?
I’m undecided as it’s quite close to maroon.
I’ve attached a pic below of the exact car:

Not a colour that suits the A3 IMO. More the sort of thing you'd see on big old Jags or Mercs. (Not that I can see yr pic, but I googled it).

Can't see a pic either but also have to agree per the above, not sure it's a colour that works on an A3. Seems an "older" kind of colour.

I think it looks nice and not everyone has it.

I think its great if you're 70+ as its a bit plum beige

However, running some black accents, Black edition pack, Black wheels (18 or 19's) window tints, it could look a bit better...

Refined I think you meant LOL
I do think it looks really nice, but my best flavour would be a gunmetal grey type

Not something I see often but I have had a couple in this colour here and I have to say it’s a really nice colour, but one you have to see in person.

Not nice, looks brown / purple colour

I like it, family member had one in that colour & it does look good.

not my cup of tea, but agree with dubjam, with black edition kit , wheels and badges it will come to life, has the rear tinted window pack so probably not a bad spec either.
