I have it in my S4 and the closest I can describe it is similar to the color of a terracotta clay plant pot but a couple of shades darker. The audi.com photo, or the one in their A4/S4 sales book is a close representation.

I agree that most photos I've seen represent it falsely as more orange.

Not sure I would go tuscan interior with quartz exterior, but to each his own..

Tuscan with ibis, deep sea blue, meteor, phantom, and black would be okay. Not even sure I would like it with red. Red just begs for black nappa or black alcantara, or maybe magma/black if you wanna be daring.

mofsteel, I love your A4 Avant. I think that's my wife's next ride.

I wish the S4 Avant was still made US spec; I'd be driving one.

I ordered a deep sea blue with tuscan interior. You are the only person to say so far that this combination would work (beside me of course ). Honestly, I am still a little nervous about it. The 2-color seats make this a more daring choice i think than an all tuscan (like the a5/s5?) would be.

No way dude. It'll look nice. I actually considered that combo, but it would have been a carbon copy of my outgoing 335i (monaco blue with terracotta). Getting aluminum, carbon, stainless or other for trim? I probaby would have gone the carbon route with that color selection.

I just took delivery of my Deep Sea Blue / Mustang brown S4 this weekend. I'd not see the brown interior in person before ordering either but I love the combination, as do the few other people who've seen my car so far.

The blue seems to change according to the ambient light, looks more black in bright sunshine, but at dusk / night / in the shade, the blue tones really come out. I think the brown is the perfect match with it, hope you do too when yours arrives....

Good to hear that. That makes me a less anxious for the choice I made. Thanks!

Thanks for all the input, everyone. I think I will go with meteor grey on black/brown Napa. Very exciting!

Damn - I never thought I'd like the looks of the brown interior. Definitely better than I thought it would be.
