Default phantom black s5...any pics guys?
I'm pretty curious about this color. I'm in Canada right now and Audi dealership doesn't have this car for display. Just few of them. So, im wondering how the phantom black pearl looks like. I have no idea in my mind. I appreaciate if you all can give me the pics.

Thanks

Default If you live in Toronto you may want to drop by Queensway Audi.
They have a Phantom Black A8 and an A6 on display in their show room, this may give you an idea.

Default 08 S5, are you in the Wilmette/Glencoe area?
Just looks very familiar in the background, saw the Illinois plates.

Default greyish undertones in the phantom
they look different in person for sure. brillant black is a deep black. The phantom almost has grey specs in it that gives it a very different look.

Really can't go wrong with either.

Default If you are looking for a deep black, high gloss finish, go with the Brilliant Black.
The Phantom black is metallic and can look "dusty" in some conditions, but I believe (but not sure) that it won't show swirl marks as easily as BB.
