It's SO hard to find pics of this paint but I've finally found it and knew it would look so perfect for the car! I found the pics on the link above which has shots of every A5 and S5 colours. All shots are real-life shots and from same angles which makes comparing them really easy

Top pic looks kinda like Interlagos Blue, bottom pic looks kinda like Laguna Seca Blue. Either way, it's hot.

They had this car in the new Hitman movie. It was badass.

Too much grill. The front end is so massive and the lines front to back just doesn't flow nicely for me.

The fact that the electronics will fail within a year?

IMO, Estoril and Laguna Seca Blue are both nicer.

My 328i lasted 148k miles until the tires decided to stop working, and my 330i will last just as long, thank you very much.

Seriously....I see so few repeat Audi owners, and so many repeat BMW owners.
