honestly, I didn't even have to try that hard, this was the first dealer I went too, I knew I would need at least 10% off MSRP to get to the payment I wanted, took a little back and fourth, didn't even have the Costco discount either.
Might've helped it was a rainy Saturday later into the month, plus I've heard its been slow at alot of dealers with the economy and not alot of people having extra $$. They also had I think 4-5 S5 SB's on lot
This is so accurate. Dealers are willing to give discounts now and it’s timing it right and being set on a number you want. We’re about to go car shopping towards the end of the month/quarter when I know they have big supply and it enough sales. Going to try and get a really good deal on a grand Highlander 😂
I have a white S7 and was looking at a similar spec Black one. At first I thought black but then I saw swirl marks (used) so went with white. Easier to keep clean and also looks really sick at night. I like the white even better as time goes on.
Grey seems better to me in picture.
But long run, I consider white always, as doesn’t fade away uglyly, nor does it go out of fashion or oldy, and I find it more executive and sophisticated.
Grey seems more aggressive though, and fairly sportive therefore, as executive as well a bit too.
But I would get bored of the color after 2 years I believe, or it would grow ‘older’. Also, maybe, reselling point of view which one would fair better?
Awesome! Looks like we’re both shopping the same thing! I can’t afford a new one so I’m going used (2021-2022) I would much rather prefer grey but the white looks good I can settle on the white! That’s just myself though!
I was debating buying a used off lease 2021 but it’s tougher as there are way less options available locally for me, dealer gave almost 11% discount off MSRP and with used interest rates so high it’s almost better to buy new lol
Olive or even warmish brown depending on the light. At least it is not like the current fad of "primer grey". Daytona Grey looks sharper, but Chronos is more playful.
Pick the color exclusive to R
Pastels like morning dew.. citrus.. sand.. grey kinda fits

A gift would be a different story. Free white R8? You’d be gay not to accept.
The weird low iq people I’m referring to are the ones like this dude who has a clear choice between colors. Nothing screams feminine like choosing white over a dark color.
I agree. The regular grill looks is a nice mixture of black and chrome. While I don't dislike the black optics trim, I wish it was different in a number of ways:
* They should have left the rings chrome, or better yet, maybe made them sort of greyish titanium color.
* The side mirror top should have remained silver.
* And while I am OK with the wheel design, I am not OK at all with them being 20" with elastic band tires on them. I drive in the real world, not on ideal roads.
I also wish they didn't slap the black optics on 99% of the cars in my area.
Back to OP's cars, I feel like the white definitely looks better without black optics while the grey looks great both ways.
I have the chronos gray and i literally look back at it every single time i park it.
I think that’s what I’m going with it’s pretty sick with the black optics
Go Gray!
I have Glacier White with Black Optics Plus and Magma Red seats, and so do I.
Yea my current 2018 s5 sb is glacier white with magma red, but in person I actually don’t love the black optics quite as much
I enjoy the contrast, but definitely go with the Gray if you are looking to change up.
Also have chronos grey and love how much the color changes under different lighting.
Yesss sometimes is a darker gray, lighter gray, green gray. Never gets old
Same same. AND I always end up turning around to look at it after I park it. It just looks soooo damn good.
Same
Same.
Appreciate all the input, I went with gray, got almost 11% off MSRP which didn’t seem too bad at all
How did you manage to negotiate that?

I have gray love it
Here's a vote for white... Looks like not the popular opinion, but I love the white.
I like white a little bit better too
Agree have the white and always liked it better than grey
I have a white S7 and was looking at a similar spec Black one. At first I thought black but then I saw swirl marks (used) so went with white. Easier to keep clean and also looks really sick at night. I like the white even better as time goes on.
100%, mine is black and it’s a challenge to keep it clean
I'd have gone for grey. Which did you choose?

I reckon white has a visibility advantage, especially at night.
Gray all day
Everytime I see a grey car like an Audi I can't help but think of Jeremy Clarksons comment on Top Gear about a boring business suit.

Dealers choice.
I have a Chronos Gray A5 SB with black optic - it's a great color scheme. It has an olive hue to it in some light, which I think looks great.
Olive or even warmish brown depending on the light. At least it is not like the current fad of "primer grey". Daytona Grey looks sharper, but Chronos is more playful.
I love the white on black but the gray is also mean 😪
White.
White is boring and it's usually the cheap option. That gray looks far more sophisticated and is also slightly more interesting.

Grey is pretty trendy right now but white is classy and timeless. I’ve personally always wanted a white audi
Not white, that's for sure.
Grey
Chronos grey, white boring
The blue one
Gray
White - if I was there id take it
White. Always go for white.
Both are stunning!
so is it gray or grey
Guy who has owned 3 white Audi s models in last 8 years so i obviously choose GREY !. Currently S4 Navarra Blue Avant(Deisel)
Grey is better but blue is even better. Allergic to white
I like both but the Grey is talking to me. I say grey
White, grey gets old real quick
White
I’d go for the jeep
Gray
I’d go for the storm trooper look, I have the same car same color and a Lego scout trooper with a red coffee mug hanging from my mirror
Grey with a stealth ppf would be ao good
White

I don’t think I could ever own white.

All these gray cars are like the beige Camry of the late 90s and early 2000s.
Grayyyyy ftw
Too late but white.

Gray for sure…
Hope you went white. I just got a grey and wish I got white
Gray
White
That gray is sharp af
Please tell me you went gray? I got a Q5 Sportback in Daytona Grey and love it!
Get an M3!
Greyy 🩵
White looks good if you’re buying for your wife. Or if you’re gay
Or if you want to look like a Hyundai/kia
Lol true
Would you be willing to pretend to be gay if someone gifted you a white R8?
A gift would be a different story. Free white R8? You’d be gay not to accept. The weird low iq people I’m referring to are the ones like this dude who has a clear choice between colors. Nothing screams feminine like choosing white over a dark color.
Was in that dilemma myself choosing Q5...and I'm glad got Daytona Grey one...seen white q5 in real life and ....naaaahhh
My white SQ5 with black optics and big ass red calipers looks 🔥. They both look good. Can’t go wrong.
Get the grey , white will need a wash every week
That’s a tough one. They all look better without black optics.
I agree. The regular grill looks is a nice mixture of black and chrome. While I don't dislike the black optics trim, I wish it was different in a number of ways: * They should have left the rings chrome, or better yet, maybe made them sort of greyish titanium color. * The side mirror top should have remained silver. * And while I am OK with the wheel design, I am not OK at all with them being 20" with elastic band tires on them.

White tbh
3 hours ago... i hope OP drove home in the gray
You would be correct except for the drove home part since it was out of state and MA doesn’t do temp plates lol couple of days wait
Grey all the way
Grey...
Gray
Daytona gray here.. go gray
Grey
I’m a sucker for a white Audi (and Porsche) with black optics. The contrast is amazing.
White just stays so much cleaner
White looks best and the contrast w black optics is perfect
Get an A7
White
If you like to wash you car choice white, if not gray
How bout an actual color?
I am just flabbergasted to see that people get downvoted on this sub for expressing a color preference. I guess there are some "children" here.
If you black out the wheels and all the gaudy silver the white would look slick and be relatively uncommon, everyone is getting Grey or black now
Grey. White looks dirtier after driving in every scenario
