Essen 2003: Pics of Goodwood Green RS6

[Erik]

This color looked great in the spotlights.
However, yesterday I drove an S4 Tiptronic in the same color and it looked more like military green in the darkness.

Note the audio / visual options.

I would like to have that... I wish someone would put it on Ebay.

Saw a Goodwood Green RS6 Avant in Milan during my visit last month. Here is how it looks in natural daylight (overcast skies). A bit dull I must say, but carries the understated look very nicely. :trans:

Like black it seems to need constant cleaning.

And direct sun- or spotlight is very helpful to help the color.

Btw, here's the Champion Racing RS6. Notice the side pipes.

Oh god I love that interior... That color combination and full leather package is incredible..! Thanks for the pics Erik..!

Ah Audi and it's infinite wisdom...

Floor mats would be nice.

So would the 19 inch wheels.

And for me, at least, front spash guards, though apparently those can't be had anywhere.

The video setup certainly looks cool, though it would be wasted on me. No kids, and the view up front is much better. While I'm complaining, the better Euro Nav system would have been nice. That I would have paid for.

How hard can it be to figure out that you don't tell people who paid plus or minus $90K for a car that you won't sell them stuff that would otherwise be legal in their country, and that you have already gone to the trouble to fit to the car for everyone else?? The Recaro seat option would fall under this category also.

Those complaints aside, I love my RS6.

Usually i hate green cars, but this one looks nice...
kind of like M3 green(i think oxford green)
looks black in dark and green in day light...

FWIW, This car is not Goodwood Green. I have a Goodwood Green RS6 and I've seen this green on other Audis. They are not the same. The Goodwood Green is closer to British Racing Green in overall hue with a gold metallic.

When was this show ? The RS6 went out of production years ago so why are they still "showwing" it ?
This is an amazing example though, i love the leather combo.

An RS6 is an RS6! Throw me one in polka dots an I would still drive it!

Just look at the date when Erik posted this thred. 4th December 2003. Might give you an idea.. ;)

Somebody just lifted a pretty old thread.. :boring:

[+44 Dave]

Wow yeh, thanks for the heads up.
Wonder why somebody was viewing such an old thread ?

[BLITZEN]

Sorry for resurrecting such an old thread. I was searching Goodwood Green for photos and vin research. Since this thread has been used for a few guys who were considering the color, I wanted to give them a "heads up" that this (beautiful) car is not quite it. The Green in Bingocaller's Avatar is closer to Goodwood Green in reality.

It's a shame but Green has grown unpopular in recent years, because it is a truly beautiful colour, especially on anything remotely sporty.

theres a green Rs6 driving around here, it looks black when it cloudy and dark but when the sun is out, it's nice deep green.

It is almost like the deep purple audi had/has looks black half the time and purple the rest. (which by the way is a nice colour to, but nothing beats daytona and phantom)
