Hi there, just discovered Audi Sport . . . I've had an A5 Cab for 4 years and never knew this place existed!! So - hello.
After 4 years of the truly fabulous A5 Cab, I've just ordered / upgraded to a new 2017/18 S5 Cabriolet, I just now need to choose a colour within the next week or so.
When I first got the A5, I really wanted it in Sepang Blue but it wasn't an option or available at the time (or I couldn't afford it - I forget) so ended up with Scuba Blue. Now with the new S5, I'm torn between:
Ara Blue: the kind of bright and no hiding away (but lovely) Ara blue (which is an option - not standard),
Navarra Blue: the standard Navarra blue, great when the sun hits it but like Scuba Blue that I have now - somewhat dark without the sun,
Mystic Blue: the Mystic Blue (which has tinges of purple), really lovely when the light hits it and a little different, but again very dark out of the sun again a non-standard option.
Sepang (pearl): or indeed - Sepang, albeit it's been around a while (non standard - an option).
Photos attached below: S5 in Ara blue (amazing), the standard Navarra blue (though not on a cabriolet) and the Mystic blue on a shiny showroom R8.
I'm 99% convinced about the Ara blue as it looks stunning on the S5 Cab. It'll be getting a proper ceramic detailing once new to keep it shiny as possible regardless of the colour, but would welcome any other opinions on this somewhat subjective matter, I realise no amount of forum debate is really going to 'solve' the decision, but I'd be interested in others' views on the sportier Ara versus more corporate / reserved darker blues. All fabulous in their own ways.
Or indeed any other blues. It's got to be blue!!
Thanks lots,
Will.
