Default Deep Thoughts Question of the Day: Does Imola Yellow not "work" as well on the B6s as on the B5s?

I dunno, on the B5s I like Imola more for the Avant, and Nogaro more for the sedan (don't know why, but I do).

But for the B6s, I think I might like Nogaro better for the Avants, and Imola better for the sedans. At the very least, I don't think I like Imola as well for the B6 Avants and I do for the B5 Avants.

Discuss.

Default Answered below, but I agree.

The Nogaro Sedan was hot, and the imola avant was awesome. But I'd really like to see an imola avant in B6 form before I 'dis.

Regardless, I saw a nogaro avant earlier this month. Came down to chill with us in Raleigh for a GTG and it was such a purdy sight. 3 B6 S4s, 1 Nogaro Sedan, 1 Nogaro Avant, and my Black Avant. So hot...

Default Thank you! Been looking for an Imola Avant pic. Come mm, have to admit, it's hot!

But those door sills need to be paint-matched. Still, one hot ticket.

Colors do look different. Newer looks brighter, but might be because of lighting.

Default That B6 S4 is European and may not be Imola but another yellow offered over there

Imola isn't THAT bright no matter what the lighting.

Default The better question is where are the pearl avants, dangit

Oh well... guess I'll learn to be happy with Nogaro.

And to be on topic for the thread, I never much liked the imola on the B5. Haven't seen a B6 imola yet so I'll reserve opinion.

Default I am happy with the Imola sedan.

Probably would be happy with an Imola Avant as well.
