… I like the Nardo and Suzuka Grey, but when I saw the Daytona Pearl with The Black Optic Package and Red Stripe wheels… well I went loony.
All the colors look beautiful - the Daytona always looks good - even with dust…. in the picture below, the car is actually filthy, having done over 100 miles in the mountains with dust and gravel.

Anticipation is part of the joy! How cool… I was giddy when I picked up my RS5. Still enjoy just staring at it in the garage, more so driving it in the canyons...

Congratulations… actually those wheels you have are beautiful. What makes the striking statement is the flash of red. You can replace the wheels or:
1. Red lug covers (as I did on my S5): ColorLugs - Home
2. A red pinstripe along the lower panel
3. If you do consider new wheels, check out the HRE website - they can do any tint you wish - the brushed copper is nothing short of seductive, although my wife is starting to lose her patience
Do an epic road trip to LA - we will show you some great roads and wonderful people.

Here's what I did...
2. Window tint
3. Clear half nose protection (lot's of gravel flung on our mountain adventures)
Keep us posted… yahoo!
Does Audi make an RS5 Stetson ;-)

How cool - life is too short not to be thrilled...
I eagerly await the images! Let's see the beast… my mom was big sports car lady. In the last days of her life, she still used her walker to get out to her 300ZX… she would drive it around, pick up some take out somewhere, go to the beach and watch the sunset. Then drive home - hobble back into the house. I always waited for the call to know she was home safe. Sometimes, i had friends go look for her. Sure enough, she just fell asleep at the beach. She was always passionate about the sport.
When I got my RS5, I was so overwhelmed because I knew she would be overjoyed and want to drive it! My wife, who was my mom's nurse in the last year of her life, has picked up the flame and we go on our drives every weekend…
Enjoy the great privilege we are having to be car folks in this era….
