Default i remember reading that an audi designer described it as the whitest white of any car available

i think it was in one of the A5/S5 reviews, where they happened to briefly interview a female audi designer in Italy.

Default They had a used white/silver Veyron there also

I saw them taking off some plastic wrap but the car had brake dust in some wheel spokes, so I'm assuming it's used.

I don't know about all that, but it is a very starkly white white.

Default Ever seen the Arctic White on a 996?

It's a very PURE and brilliant white.
