Default Custom paint/audi exclusive color?
Hi - has anyone strayed beyond the standard paint colors, and gone with an audi exclusive color or custom paint for their Q5? I am considering this, and didn't know if anyone had any Q5's in neat colors! (I am considering velvet purple....)

Also, not sure how much it costs?

We briefly considered it because of the limited standard color options, but in the end my wife decided on Ibis. It's not cheap ... I think it's $2,500.

Since we had to custom order anyway, I went ahead and got Lava Gray on my Q5. Sadly, it's available standard on other Audis, but not the Q5. Love that color, and glad we got it.

I wonder if it would be possible to do this with Panther Black?
That's a *beautiful* colour IMO.

Can you find Audi's paint palette online? Or does the dealer have it?

Interesting how things change from one country to the next, Lava Grey was a stock standard option for me in S.A.
