Default Close to ordering an A3, but really torn on what color to get...

I really wanted to like the Ocean Blue, but after I saw one it just didn't do it for me. Too dull looking. I did like the Red, but it may be too much, It's very bright. Screams boy racer. Thoughts? Why did you pick the color you did? Thanks guys, this is killing me.

Default BB

Nothing looks better than a black car after a good cleaning and waxing.

Default Red was my second choice after Lava (followed by blue and Dakar).

Think red looks nice and sporty, but not really over the top. Suits the shape of the car very well. Had a red coupe in the past, and didn't get any more police action than any other car I've owned.

Default Don't get me wrong, I really liked the red, and if I were

in my 20's I'd get it, but I'm a long way from my 20's and I can't get over it looking like "there's that old guy trying to look young". Well, you get what I mean. But I DID like the red.

Default I chose Lava, but from you posts...

I'd say check out the Dakar Beige. One of the best colors for the A3 IMO. Its classy and sophisticated.

Who cares what other people think? Those who know you will know why you chose it.
