Default Imola Yellow- A Disappointment

I ordered my S4 in Imola Yellow- have a Brilliant Yellow A$ now. Saw a Imola Yellow car last week- it was nothing like the paint chip or photos-- butt ugly! Looks like the Checker Cab yellow. Or traffic sign yellow.

Audi screwed this up-- I would MUCH RATHER have BRILLIANT YELLOW.

Major bummer- not sure if it's worth having now

Re: Brilliant Yellow has way to much lime green in it, Imola is great!

Default Jim, if you feel that strongly.....

don't get the yellow. Get your deposit back and buy another S4 off a lot. You may have to work to find one, but you'll otherwise regret keeping a car whose color turned you off so much on first sight. Personally, I think the silver/onyx-silver alcantara is killer!!! It looks absolutely fabulous inside and out; BTW, those are my colors. Good luck!

Default Silver/onyx-alcantara (pic)

<center><img src="http://www.ajdcomputing.com/~alan/interior.jpg"></center><p>Let me know if you have seen one or if you have any pics of one. I ordered this from my dealer, but he said they had none on order (even after I told him 8 months in advance to order it this way.) I took a black exterior w/onyx alcantara interior. This looks very nice also, but I think I would have liked the silver better. My salesman was pretty cool since I was 9th on the list and no car in sight they gave me right of first refusal on the third S4 and on until I settled on this one.
