Default 2014 RS5 (JUST ORDERED TODAY) exclusive color opinions

Hi all,
I just ordered my new RS5 today and this is the exclusive color I got on it. Apparently its not in the states yet on any audi so that's great news for me if true! What do you guys think? This is the only good representative image I could find online. I also got the black optic package as well as exclusive interior leather colors.

Hard to tell from that light. But it looks like meteor gray. I had that on my 2011 avant.

What is the color called ?

I like it. A very nice change of pace from black and the array of silver/gray on most.

Yes...It's Northen Blue Pearl. Was an A8 color many years ago. Very nice color from what I remember.

Just kinda pricey @ 3900 bucks. But for an 80k car, you might as well get what you want.

Thanks guys! appreciate the feedback. Those were my thoughts exactly. I see so many grays and blacks on the Rs5 and other Audi's in general, I wanted my Rs5 to stand out. The audi dealer told me most people that order the Rs5 don't even look at the exclusive colors and just get the grays or blacks, which is a shame in my humble opinion.

Reminds me of a late 1990s Mercedes color called Smaragdschwarz. Very nice

I LOVE Northern Blue Pearl. I told myself that if I ever ordered an Audi Exclusive car, it would be in this color. I would order it with either a dark brown leather or Alabaster White.

What color did you do on the interior? You MUST post pictures when the car arrives.
