Default It's hard to tell what color that is...

Looks like Black or a very deep Red/Purple? If it's the Reddish Purple I've seen it before. I think it's called Zycalm Red(?)HTH

P.S. There should be a listing of what colors where available in the Historical Model Guide...

Default I thought it was black, then gray, I still don't know. There is no list in the historical guide.....

I thought that maybe someone repainted their Audi to the A8's Cashmere gray, which I really like.

Default I think it's stock...

<center><img src="http://www.s-cars.org/S2/images/S2-sedan1.jpg"></center><p>This photo isn't proof, but it does appear to be the same color on a similar car. The color looks to be a dark grey, probably close to Volcano black(?). I have a '95 brochure at home which will confirm the US colors for the '90.

The color is not Zyclam, which is aka Cyclamen Pearl Effect. That happens to be the color of my car, which is pictured in the post linked below. If the photo doesn't show, just refresh. My site is on the fritz lately.
