    While Audi’s Dragon Orange Metallic is, or rather was, a standard color on the Q8, SQ8 and RS Q8 crossovers, it wasn’t offered on the Q5. So, you might see another Audi in this color, but that doesn’t make this Q5 any less unique.

    The original owner of this car chose to compliment that orange exterior with brown interior, a standard interior color that fits well with the warm earthy tones of this car.

    Some final thoughts, this is a Prestige package Q5, the “Best” level in Audi’s Good-Better-Best content grouping schema. That it’s logged just over 20,000 miles also makes it a total find for someone seeking a unique daily driver.

    Color Check: Audi exclusive RS 6 in Dragon Orange

    We’ve got one last car from German Audi dealer Scherer Sport to highlight their mix of RS 6 performance wealth… at least until they share a few more. For this particular RS 6 performance, the specification turns to a color introduced with the market arrival of the pre-facelift Audi Q8 range.

    That color is Dragon Orange Metallic (drachenorange; metallic Uni; LY2Y / Y4; Audi). This was a stock color on the Q8 range, meaning that even though it had a relatively low take rate it still can be found with some regularity on Q8, SQ8 and RS Q8 specimens.

    However, it’s rare as an Audi exclusive decision so finding it on an RS 6 is a fresh take on a familiar hue. It’s also not Samoa Orange, Ipanema Brown or Solar/Glut Orange, more typical amber hues from Audi exclusive. By our measure, that makes this RS 6 performance decidedly unique.
