That seems to be the "magic" of the crystal effect paints. EBC looks quite dark in the shade and dim lighting, but it really pops in the sunlight.

Man that looks hot! The facelift has turned out to be super modern with the new LED's upfront. WOW. The look is going to be copied by many others in the next few years.

That Estoril looks great!

I ordered mine last week (in Estoril). I really like the color contrast with the red tail lights (vs. little contrast with a red car -- although I did consider Volcano Red!).

I too like the contrast against the red lights. I also like the contrast with the red on the "supercharged" and "S4" badges. It's a very minor detail, but it's what swayed me towards ordering the blue. On the red car the red badges disappear.

Red looks it has abit too much orange in it but the Car looks like it is under florescent light. Would like to see what the red looks like in the sun/day light. Would also like to see volcanic red also. Personally, I Never make a decision on any color (house paint, car color etc) under flourescent
