My deepest condolences. It breaks my heart just looking at the photos...can't imagine how you feel. I'm very sorry this happened to you. Hope nobody was hurt.

Friday was a long day and as you said we both have our health and as you can see in the second pic she's even smiling.
As for the color absolutely beautiful and I had received quite a few comments about the color.

Unfortunately it does show wrinkles well....
Slid down a long hill to an embankment at the bottom. Then it was hit by 2 more cars while waiting to be towed. The last car that hit it was doing 30-35 went through 2 officers and 5 people missed everyone/thing to hit the S4 with my wife inside. Did I mention it had 250mi on it....

On the thread topic, I have Estoril Blue on my 2013 and it seems fine from a durability standpoint. I got the car from my dealer completely unwashed with only the protective film removed.

Yes they were, I picked the car up Monday night and got caught out Friday am. We went to the gym at 4am no snow. In the 65-70mins we were at the gym it snowed and covered everything. Being Seattle area it's all hilly and snow hits, melts and freezes.
Never had a chance to get snows put on and would have taken a second car had we realized it was going to snow as it did. Also being Seattle they can forecast snow til they are blue in the face and we'll get rain.....
Thanks for the well wishes and we'll be back shortly with another car. Adjuster looked at it today should have a ruling by Friday.

Thank God y'all are ok. I see you still had your summer only tires on. They do suck on the snow and ice and I bet they are 100% the cause of your wreck. When I had my S5 I went for a spin around the neighbor hood to see how summer only tires were. (My dealer made me sign a waver about the summer only tires in snow). I knew right then they sucked. I could not even put the car back in the garage. It would not make it up my slight incline driveway. When I bought my new SQ5 with the 21 inch summer only tires I ordered a set of 20 inch Hartmann wheels with Blizzak snow tires. I did not want to have a issue. I did run high end Michelin all seasons on my S5 but they were never all that great for stoping in the snow and ice. GET SOME WINTER TIRES!! Your life ain't worth the savings of a $2000
