Default Best Color for the A6 Allroad?

Hi all,

I'm thinking about ordering a 2024 A6 Allroad. All the colors on the website seem very bland.

It would be helpful if this community could share photos of your A6 Allroad. I'm leaning towards the Florette Silver Metallic.

Thank you!

Wow, it only has 2,000 miles on it. If you don't mind me asking, why did you sell it?

Check out my build thread. It is a one of a kind and much better than showroom condition. The roof rail swap alone was over 2600.00 and i dont know of another Allroad with them. Painted calipers. 21" wheels on new Michelin, etc. etc.

I go thru cars like water...but i had planned on keeping this for a long time. I had been trying to get one for a year before I found it...had to fly to Boise to get it. But I am now doing some more Doberman rescue work (along with having 3 Dobies and a standard poodle myself) ...and I needed a bigger car.

Did not want to do a truck - and we have a 21 Q7 - so i just got another.

This is my new Q7 4 days after - already have new wheels and other stuff you can't see. lol

my personal opinion is this is the best color. I might be biased, though.

I had no idea there was an orange option on an Allroad. I have a black one now, but am considering ordering a 2024 if I can find someone that has an allocation. If this orange is a stock option, I'd definitely want that color. If not, my next favorite color is the light green option, then black, then blue. Not interested in white or silver (won't be able to find my car in the parking lot).

unfortunately all the 2024 colors are very dull. I'm planning on going with the black optics package and putting on some black OEM wheels. Light colors like white or silver should complement the dark trims. That's the only reason I'm considering the silver.

I feel black on black will be way too dark/stealthy.

Wow! that's an expensive option--but you have exactly the car you want, and definitely one of a kind. It is beautiful. I had "ordered" (been put on a wait list) for a Lexus NX with a similar, but not quite as dazzling burnt orange color before buying my Allroad.

Yes, it is really unfortunate that they only offer black, white, many different grays and silver and blue now. The only one I'd want is black, but if I had a choice, I'd rather have that light green they'd been offering.
