Default I posted a thread on here a while ago trying to find out if anyone had ever special ordered an RS6

in Papaya orange. One of the people that replied to my thread had a red RS6 but don't remember who this was. I made a comment saying that red is boring. Well, I assumed the red on the RS6 is the regular "laser red" color as on most red Audis. I found out that it's not the case but instead, they used the "Misano red" as on the ALMS TT's. I take back what I said about it being boring. I absolutely love that color and would definitely be happy to have an RS6 painted in it.

Default It was me....and it is not the regular red ...it is special to the RS6...it is kind of

an oranger type red...with metalic in it...very pretty in the light. Audi does NOT have a touch up color for this color but I did find it elsewhere. Glad you came around..lol

Default He is correct that the TT ALMS special edition also had this color.

Avus silver was the other special TT color.<ul><li><a href="http://www.cars.com/carsapp/national/?srv=parser&amp;act=display&amp;tf=/features/mvp/audi/tt/popups/alms_425_popup.tmpl">Some more info.</a></li></ul>

ever parked near is the corvette....

Default Yup, sure was. My favorite is the Misano with the white interior. Such a lovely combination.

The Avus with the red interior isn't bad either, of course.
