I am considering re-painting my Black RS6 (because it's not really black), and wanted to know if anyone has repainted their RS, and what color they've picked. I am considering a true black, a deep maroon, maybe dark green, and would black out the chrome trim around the windows.

If you have any pictures, please post them.

Any suggestions?

Thanks Guys.

One vote for black.
FWIW, I may be one of the few around who love the ebony pearl. I had bought the car thinking it was black (didn't know "ebony pearl" from Adam at the time), but when I picked it up, I was floored! I really love it.
About 10yrs ago, I had spent a rather large pot of money on spray-ups trying to find just the right paint for a 911. I wanted a black paint that had just a hint of iridescence in the right light. It was next to impossible to get the right mix without it looking cloudy or over-done. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the RS6 gleeming in the sun, in the color I always wanted. Must be fate. Plus, it forces me to keep it clean!
