    Market Find: (Believed) Cumulus Blue Audi RS e-tron GT

    We ran a check on this car and drew a blank. No information was available via our first check source. And while we can go to a contact at the factory for additional information, we try to only do that when we’re stumped. In this case, we’re not really stumped and are fairly certain the car is Cumulus Blue.

    Dear Audi, can you please put a color code on your Monroney window stickers? The dealer in this case has the Monroney in the listing and so we include it below, but not including that information on the sticker doesn’t allow dealerships to know what they have… sometimes even Audi franchise dealerships… which seems like something a brand would want to fix. And don’t even get us started on taking the time to purchase or find an Audi exclusive car only to find the CGI rendering in your My Audi app is boring silver, while your boring factory colored Audi ins the same app are as-delivered correctly colored.

    Okay, rant over. We think this car is Cumulus Blue. Fortunately, there aren’t a lot of colors in the Audi exclusive portfolio that are remotely close to this color. There’s also a Cumulus Blue Audi in one of our staff’s garages so we think we’ve got a better understanding than most about the many shades from white to Gulf Blue that a Cumulus Blue car can take.

    Whatever the case, this is a handsome RS e-tron GT, so handsome in fact that Audi recently included this color on its own German market Audi exclusive information page. And while they car on that page is of the facelift J1.2 variety, it’s effectively the same car as this visually… all the way down to the wheels.

    It’s a great spec. The apparently factory agrees. If you are looking for a really unique tailored EV, we’d add this one to the short list.

    There’s something about a low mile and recent year tailored build from a top luxury manufacturer. Letting someone else pay the premium to make something spectacular is a great way to get a shrewd price on a modern offering, and we think this Isle of Man Green X6M fits the bill.

    Inside, is a handsome and equally tailored cockpit. The main leather color is BMW Individual Ivory White, contrasted with Atlas Grey – a $3,500 option when ordered new.
