What color is rs2?

[TM]

Per,
You are wrong about the S4 color options. In the US, the S4 was introduced
as a 2000 model year car, with production to 2002 only.

The color options, if I can remember them all:

Casablanca White
Pearl White (special option)
Cactus Green
Hibiscus Red (only 2000)
Light Silver
Black
Tornado (?) Red
Imola Yellow
Santorin Blue
Nogaro Blue

That's it. Santorin Blue and Nogaro Blue are two distinctly different
colors,
they are most definitely available. Nogaro Blue and Imola Yellow are S4-only
colors in the US.

As for the other blue- there was a "Cool Shades" Pelican Blue that was an
option
on the early A4s- I can't tell you offhand whether this color is still
available.

If you decide that you still think I'm wrong about the S4 colors in the US,
go to Audiworld and scan through some of the posted photos- you'll see S4s
in
both Nogaro and Santorin Blue.

I could not find any traces of the Nogaro blue in the Euro FA, but I know
100%
for sure that the '97 S6+ had the Nogaro blue as the most significant color
option. Now, when I open the V-pages for the 97 S6+, I find no Nogaro Blue,
only
RS Blue. This has got to be the same color.

The A4 and S4 never had the Nogaro, only the Santorin blue. There is a third
color that can be the one you talk about, Taka. In the US FA I find the
"Blue
Pearl Effect Paint", LZ5T, for the 96-97 A4/S4 and the Santorin Blue for the
98-00 A4/S4.
