I wouldnt change any options since its fully loaded, but I love my brilliant Red S5. It always looks clean, looks great on the road(but all S5's do) and women absolutely love it, BUT if i had a chance to get a different color I would definitely go with either Quartz Grey, or would have ordered Suzuka Grey IF i knew it existed at the time i ordered my car.

+1 Brilliant Red... it's wicked!

+1 Suzuka Grey... I saw a tuned S5 in a parking lot the other day in this color with black ext. trim and black front grill. Very cool and unique.

I don't think RED is color to even consider these days, A5/S5 in red don't look so good. RED was a hit in the 80's/90's but we all got bored of it.

I can't comment on Brilliant Red, since I have yet to see one in person, but I have seen a fair number of silver, black (not sure of the mix of Brilliant and Phantom) and Meteor Gray A5 or S5s rolling around.

Since my order for the S5 is going in with Sprint Blue and Black/Silver Alcantara, the only thing that I might have remorse on later is the two-tone seats. To me, I just don't like an all-black interior (sure Aluminum or Stainless Steel inserts would help, but not enough in my opinion), so I'll have to suck it up and deal with it

All S5's look great. But the ones that I saw on the road that really impressed me was ibis white and meteor grey.

im going to have to politely disagree with that comment.

Last time I checked red still looks good on cars.

I was also impressed when I saw an A5 3.2 S-line in Meteor Gray, but I did not like the color combination with the S-line seats. Now, an S5 in Meteor Gray with either white or red interior would be nice.

Then a beautiful thing happened, I saw a Sprint Blue S5 in person and it took me a while to get me jaw off of the ground.

Everyone will have their own preferences. I am at the point that I would prefer red, blues and yellows over shades of gray (Meteor Gray is the exception, since the Pearl Effect can alter the shade and hue depending on lighting) or silver. I won't buy another dark colored car due to the maintenance level required to make it look awesome. S5 in Ibis White looks good in pictures, but I'm reserving judgment until I see one in person.
