Artic White of course, because that is the color I have..... Would probably answer another color if that was the color sitting in my garage. Better to be practical about these things.....

gotta be black, since there's a chrome trim in front, black makes it stand out more

I just polished and waxed my Lava Grey Pearl Coat and it is absolutely brilliant. At dusk it looks like a deep, deep, blue oyster. Other times of day it looks black or totally grey. Absolutely wonderful color that's not available anywhere else.

IMO,

Chef

Hmm...I've only seen three colors mentioned here out of a vast array: white, lava, and black. I've seen the car in all three. The white (surprisingly) was the only one that really caught my eye, from the aforementioned choices. Lava was a close second, and may or may not take the lead after a careful consideration. Black makes the car look good, but to me detracts from the upscale nature of this particular auto (i.e. it doesn't seem to accent the lines and nature of the car, from my perspective...seems to dull it up a bit). That being said, I ended up with Moro Blue Pearlescent with the beige leather interior and [personally] think it is the best color combination. It depends on what effect your looking for. My Moro Blue with sport package has an elegent, yet decidedly sporty look. If your going for the aggressive motif, particularly one complimented by aftermarket accessories (i.e. ground effects, HRE wheels, etc.), I suggest you look into the lava, black, or white.

Peace.

[Edit] If your putting some serious thought into picking one of these up, I highly recommend you look at colors in person. A computer monitor cannot do justice to colors painted on an auto's surface, for reasons I don't feel like listing. I hadn't given a lick of consideration to Moro Blue until I actually saw it in person. The moment it hit my eyes I knew it was the one. When it comes down to it, color choice is one of the most personal aspects of a car purchase. Go see them. Make the call then.

Well I think I'm down to the classic Black or maybe rather go with the lava.

I test drove the A3 SB With lava but the car was quite dirty, so i couldn't really see the nice shine on that baby. Today on my way to work a black A3 SB (clean) drove in front of me for a while. I thought it looked really nice, but to an extent the color is just too simply and dull (gota agree with poweruser on that).

I've seen it in RED too and I thought that was a nice color, but just not what I'm looking for.

Anyhow on the 15th of this month ill have to make my final decision, cause I have an appointment to lay down my order on the A3 SB

Hi
I have an Avus Silver s line sportback - would not change the colour for anything.
White and black are cool but only when just washed and waxed!
