Default New A6 color, Burgundy Red Pearl?

Where can I see this color? Iv'e had Ming Blue twice and want a different color when lease is up. The dark Gray also looks good.

Default It's the same color as has been available on the allroad.

If you get to Rector, ask Carter Tyson to show you his demo car - it's an '04 2.7T in Burgundy/Beige.

I personally don't care for the Burgundy; it has too much brown in it for my taste. The Dolphin Gray, on the other hand, is killer on the A6.

BTW, I think I saw your 2.7T in a Rector service bay a couple of weeks ago. Everything OK?

Default I used to like the old Andora, which to my eye was pretty close to maroon. Liked the brown in it.

Mike, haven't seen the burgundy red pearl on the road. How close is it to the old Andora? Would really like to see how it looks on the new A8. Saw a new A8 with the light interior, and was surprised at how nice it looked. Also liked the Ameretto with Alcantara. Would like to see how they looked in the burgundy.

Default The burgundy is actually very much like Andorra.

It has quite a bit of brown in it, making it kind of "rust" in color. I'd love to see them offer something like the Hibiscus Red that was once available on the A4. To my eye, that was a great color.
