Guys
Its hard to tell from photos as computers reproduce colour so unreliably, but I think that colour is called Speed Blue. It was at Essen on an A4 1.8T and looked really really good. It would be worth specifying this colour!

Take a look and judge yourself. I'd say it's the same color, Sprint Blue.

[s6plus]

Yep almost 100% the same color...

[Orjan]

It is indeed Sprint Blue! You'll find it on http://www.audi.nl/models/hetmerk/re...7748,0,00.html - then go to De Audi-modellen op de stand and click on the second car from the left ->RS6 Limousine - Sprintblauw

[s6plus]

hmmm A red and a blue one.....

long time ago. somewhere in 1996...they introduced the s6 plus...in almost the same colorz...

nagaro blue, and signal red....

????

[Orjan]

The S6+ came in two exclusive colors; Nogaro blue pearl and Misano red pearl. Misano red is also available on the RS6.

Here's the S6+ brochure http://www.nordicaudi.com/arkivet/broschyrer/s6plus.htm

Hello Orjan, nice co-incidence isn't it...
the mother of todays rs6(the s6plus) came in almost the same colors....
greetings...

Some more pics of the same RS6 on the Autorai 2003

Oh poor modem guys...
You who have ordered a RS6 with Daytona Grey, do you people regret your choices now that you can get it in Speed Blue? I know I would...but then again I haven't ordered one..:vsad2:

[Benman]

that color flat out rocks!

if it were coming stateside it would make my decision much
more difficult between that and daytona grey.

[Erik]

Benman, IF doesn't exist in my vocabulary sometimes.

I suggest you collect the name etc. of the color when you go to the dealer and say "Hey I want this color! I know it's 1500 USD extra but I DO NOT care, just fix it. I want my RS6 to be special."
Don't leave until you are satisfied.

Good luck!

[Benman]

erik thanks for the support.

the problem is not the dealer, the problem is my government.
when i had the opportunity to visit germany last summer i had
the priviledge of speaking with a spokeswomen from audi who
was one of the people incharge of the north american sales
distribution (i loved visiting the factory!).

she explained to me that although audi desperately wanted
to bring the quattro gmbh option to the u.s. it was not as simple
as that. with the u.s. government their are several hoops you
must first jump through before you can proceed with a program
like that (mostly money).

of course the u.s. gives many reasons for this but one of the
real reasons is that program would make the u.s. manufactures
look even more inferior than they allready are. for example take
cadillac. they do not have any custom program in place and they
are supposed to be the [premier] american auto manufacture.
now you have outside car companies offering that service
(which i really think is great) and now cadillac and other
car companies really look bad (after all if a company in germany
can offer u.s. residents custom packages then why the heck
can't u.s. car companies).

the spokeswomen i spoke with said audi is allready working
on bringing the program here but that it would be very
doubtfull that it would be in place by the time of the RS6
deliveries.

so the bottom line is that yes i'm a little dissapionted that i
will not have the option but in the end daytona grey will still
definately do just fine!
