How’s this for awkward? A customized Audi S5 Coupe popped up on eBay recently with a host of upgrades making it a pretty desirable ride, even at a price of just over $61,000 – it’s $61,465 in case you’re as interested as we are. Now, in spite of all the tunings this particular S5 Coupe received, what really struck us was what color it came in, or rather what the color description was used to name it. “Porsche Lime Green?” If that’s not an ode to one of Audi’s fiercest competitors, I don’t know what is. Apparently, the owner of this S5 personally ordered this paint finish at a price of $2,500 and, while we think that the color isn’t that particularly bad, the lime green exterior/orange interior combination doesn’t catch our eye the way it’s supposed to. And using a paint finish named after a competitor certainly doesn’t cast a vote of confidence from us. But hey, to each his own, right? After all, colors – and the subsequent names of these colors – notwithstanding, this tuned-up Audi S5 Coupe is still one fine piece of road machinery. .
6 comments: Audi S5 Coupe being sold on eBay with "Porsche Lime Green" (...) I think the current 3-series coupe is pretty (the convertible silhouette with the top up is horrible.
fancy looking Audi a5, i bet bimmer users will definitely get jealous with it when they see it rolling besides them.
oh yeah, another great super car has ended on E-Bay. but the S5 looks great with a Lime Green Base Paint.
