What Colour RS3 Have You Ordered?

[M7]

As we know, the RS3 hasn’t been great for choosing spec levels, and the choice of colours on offer are no exception to that either…
My current S3 8V is Navarra Blue and it’s the main thing i’m going to miss when i get my RS. The colour is amazing when i’ve detailed it. It regularly gets compliments when it’s popping in the sun!
Just interested to see what the most common choice of colour people have opted for with their orders. I myself have gone for Kemora Grey and to some people is an awful choice, but hey, style is subjective right? Lol.
To those who say “you could have ordered custom”, yes you are right however, i like the Kemora enough not to warrant spending another £2400.
I did consider Daytona, but for me it’s just such a generic run of the mill Audi colour on all of their models. Wanted something at least a little bit unique i suppose.

Is a good colour choice.


The resident hater will no doubt have something derogatory to say.

I haven't ordered, because I'd rather not have one than go mental waiting for a year for a Vorsprung to arrive, but if I was to order it'd be Kemora. Like you, I like Daytona but wouldn't get it because it's been rinsed by Audi (and every other car manufacturer in their own version of it).

I’ve gone for Daytona. You’re right that it’s a very generic Audi colour, but it looks really good in some sunshine and I think looks really good on an RS model in general.

Would I have chosen something like Mica Racing Blue or a purple if it wasn’t exclusive? Maybe, but as it stands I didn’t want the additional cost.

I think the sport back would look great in Mica Racing Blue. If I was getting one that’s what I’d be ordering.

It was between Kemora & Tango for me and eventually decided on Kemora. The pictures of Billy picking up his car sold it..!

I went Porsche Riviera Blue. Probably a "common" exclusive colour choice but I just love it. Turbo blue didn't quite do it for me.
If I had to pick out of the standard options I'd have gone Tango red for sure.

 

[RSt3ve]

Turbo Blue for me (on standard spec sportback), I know it's not the most popular of choices but for me it strikes a balance of being nice and bright without being too much.

If I'd gone for carbon black, which I would've done but for the hatch spoiler, I would've considered daytona.

I had Java Green once on an 8P S3 FL. Loved it so so much! Hated some of the attention it got though. I would love to get green again but i prefer to be less seen haha. Nice to see people are ordering it though!

I think turbo is the only color that suits the silver trim!

You’re biased towards Mica though.

Kemora , I like green but looks.to bright

Yes I agree, and in bizarre fashion (IMO) I think Turbo suits the black trim the least.

Kemora Grey

same colour as @jassyo06 has ordered so 2 riviera blue cars to look forward to and will look amazing I’m sure.

I think the saloon looks good in any colour Mythos has really grown on me as well ....l had a fight with myself over colour choice ...had Turbo on the TTS had a very similar exclusive colour Voodoo Blue of which Audi tried to clone with Turbo and initially ordered Turbo for the RS3 just for the sake of a potentially shorter waiting time but we know that's not the case now??? I wanted a bold colour so f@@k l just went for Riviera...first colour that entered my head whilst typing the colour change to the salesman.....seen it many times over the years on Audi's and BMW's....whether I'll love it or loathe who knows

 

[Add_Profile]

Kemora currently in the lead - doh! Such a "common" colour choice LOL

In the last 6 months I have seen only 1x RS3, black with silver trim, and it was parked up when I went for my booster last Monday. I don't think any of us have to worry about common colours pmsl.

I think it will look great & I wouldn’t have any concerns whatsoever. There’s even a possibility you might get it sooner if supply issues start to improve.

Ive not seen a single one lol ... mine will be the first, so yes hardly common and probably won’t be for quite some time if at all. I didn’t see many 8v RS3’s to be fair.

Here's hoping supply chains improve anyway hope all have a good time today

Yes I’m sure they will and at least with you ordering an exclusive colour it kinda soaks up some of the wait and will certainly make the end car feel more special.

Indeed have a great day everyone.

@T-1000 think you missed the boat with not staying with Venetian purple

you could always revise to this colour

Nope. Decided I wasn’t 100% for it.
Prefer the Mica Blue.

Not much in it between RMB and Sepang....Violet/purple colours always look special/exclusive looking more than metallic blues as they're so many metallic blues out there now

Maybe, but I see the blue as more desirable when the time comes to move it on, purple isn’t to everyone’s taste and in certain lights / pictures I wasn’t convinced, especially as it could be a Cadbury car

id agree with that. As good as the purple looks, it’s not to everyone’s taste. A striking blue would be my choice too and mica would be top of the list.

Choosing a paint colour is subjective l know that and we're all different ...l was always a fan of the Cadbury milk tray man.......lol but I would never be distracted by car forum opinions on anything

 

[Jassyo06]

Purple colours are old fashioned..."something" posted...really wtf do you know? anyway

For some reason this takes me to the start of the thread, same as last time. No idea why it doesn’t go to the post you’re trying to link.

totally agree & you have to go with what you like personally regardless of what others say. I do think the purple is a touch on the statement colour side though whereas blue can get away with being bold and not edging towards being too over powering.

I did say "apparently", but we needed to hear it from the master I guess post his virtual signal dig at me. Doesn't heed his own advise and just call me out, need me to link that post too?
