Would you think the Magma Red and Black interior would be better or would the Tuscan Brown and Black be better on a Red Cab?

If you go to the website you can build models with the various colors and interiors and see what you like.

Default 3 good combos

The Cinnamon Brown is a classic, natural tanned leather color that looks classy and should age and wear well. Of course, I am biased, as I have a A5 Cabrio in Quartz Gray with the Cinnamon Brown leather seats and Laurel wood trim. Deep Sea Blue is beautiful with the Cinnamon, but cars I have seen in this color seem hard to keep clean - every bit of dust is very apparent.

2. Meteor Gray with the Milano Cinnamon Brown with Laurel Wood Trim and Nav
3. Deep sea blue with the Milano Cinnamon Brown with Laurel Wood Trim and Nav

Price wise they are all similar. I am leaning towards the deep sea blue followed by the quartz gray.

What do the color fashionistas on here think?

Thanks!

I'll say this about Meteor Gray . . by the photos, it looks NOTHING like the color shown in the Audi catalogue. And it sure isn't gray by the pics, either. It looks either blue, green or a purplish hue, but certainly not gray AT ALL.

Default What about this combo?

I may trade my S5 Cab early next year for an '11 model. I'm thinking about going Daytona Gray with Tuscan/Black leather. The other option is to go all Tuscan with the Comfort Package, but I think I'd miss the great Sport seats? Any comments on that combo?

I ordered a White/brown top with Tuscan and Black seats. I sat in the comfort seats and really liked the stock ones better. They don’t have the S5 on them either. I never had a problem with German cars in the winter with the top down.

In TX it's more the cooling in the summer. We're at 100 degrees right now. I drive the car with the top down when it's in the 50's and it's still comfy. Thanks for the input on the Comfort seats. I like the look of the Sport seats much better.

The comfort package has a sport seat but it's not the typical S5 seat. They are better bolstered and have a longer bottom cushion. They look real nice.

Deep sea blue with cinammon milano and wood trim is the classiest color combo and a real head turner.
