Not a great deal of choice is there? They're sure to add more colours later on which will make it even more annoying for early purchasers.

 

Brochures/Catalogs are famous for being inaccurate representation of the real deal.

Hope Audi introduces more colours really disappointed with what appears to be their initial colour range

And the swatches in the showrooms aren't much better. Ideally you really need to the see the car in the actual colour you want, outside in different light conditions. Some colours can look brilliant in bright sunshine but look rubbish on grey days.
I fancied a Scuba blue but as I'd only seem an A3 convertible in that colour I shied away and got white. 12 months later and I still haven't seen a TT in the flesh in Scuba blue :?

 

More pictures that claim to be Nano Grey, these seem to confirm it is a very light almoust silver colour as seen from EvenTT 14.

I seen this red one tonight. It is metallic with red flecks, slightly different to Misano as the flecks are more noticeable.

 

Expect this is Tango Red Metallic which is the most frequently seen launch colour.

Is the mark 3 the most trailed pre-launch car ever? It seems everyone is going to be wanting the facelift to appear before the car goes on sale!

Liking this colour a lot.

:lol: my thoughts exactly.

 

I am a little obsessive when researching my next car; so I welcome the constant trickle of information.
Really smart of Audi too, to build and feed the interest.
The unfortunate thing is we have no firm idea about when it will come to Canada, so I may be in this mode for a while.

 

Screen capture from AudiUpdate shows previously mentioned Vegas Yellow.

"Tango Red metallic is an intense, vibrant red that emphasizes the contours of the Coupé particularly well, Nano Gray metallic is clean and pure, while Vegas Yellow screams sportiness."

 

I wonder if the color of the car in this video is Nano Grey Metallic:

It's either that or the silver.

Nice colour but IMO you can with sepang blue which just so happens is posted above. Very nice indeed!

Now all that audi need to do is not overprice the car!!

 

Sepang is beautiful; but I have had blue for a while now. Looking forward to better pictures in white, especially Glacier.

Purely based on the colours as shown on the configurator, glacier white is streets ahead and this from someone currently driving a Volcano Red Mark 2!! However, truth be told the yellow of the TTS is my favourite but in its absence and the rather close comparison of the Tango Red with my current colour (and by the way the configurator does not do TR any justice!), nothing else comes close to the Glacier. Looks particularly good with the S-line and 5 twin-spoke 19" alloys.

 

Tangible red disappointingly is not metallic. Its akin to misano.

Martin, very interested to know why you say Tango is not metallic, Audi says it is, and charges for it.

Thanks

 

In the flesh on the preview car I made a point of examining the paint and it was in my eyes a flat colour. I could not see any evidence of flecks like a normal metallic such as Daytona has. It could've been the lighting conditions but this was during the daytime in a well lit dealers.
I was disappointed with tango and as I said it is very akin to misano in its flatness. It's far from the marketing blurb description....

 

Might be similar to Glacier White which is metallic too, but doesn't show any flecks...

 

Misano red is pearlescent while Glacier white and Tango red are supposed to be metallic - so there should be a difference and you would have thought showroom lighting would have shown that off to its best :?
