It was the afternoon before Christmas and left work early, I headed down to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! to take care of a few things. I had brought my camera bag with me (which had my Nikon D800E, AF-S 16-35mm f/4 VR, AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 VR II and a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art) in the slim chance that there was something unique down there.

Well, my hunch was right and I had found out that they had a matte Daytona Gray Audi RS 7 parked in the back.

Additional photos of the matte Daytona Gray RS 7 and several other cars at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! can be found on Flickr in the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

There must be at least 2 miles on this thing, since I see brake dust :) Good shots though, love this thing

I didn't get to see how many miles are on there either. Would love to see what it looks like clean and pristine :)

The only thing better than Daytona Gray is Nardo gray.

RS7 is easily my favorite Audi.

Nardo Gray definitely trumps Daytona Gray on an S or RS model, hands down. That said, I would choose Oolong Gray over Daytona Gray on a non-S or non-RS model.

Loved doing a photo shoot of this Nardo RS 7:

Hate the front grill, why is it manufacturers are adding acres of plastic honeycomb?

Audi has used the honeycomb design on the RS models ever since the RS 2 Avant. It's just that the size of the grille has grown. I think Audi chose the large grille not only as a design thing, but also it's a larger, relatively flat and vertical surface probably makes meeting pedestrian crash requirements a wee bit easier.

I know, but as the honeycomb grill expanded it looks very much like a Toyota or a Mazda. It looks cheap in my opinion, and at the price Audi wants for a RS7.. ya know. BTW, I do like Audi Wilsonville, I bought my Cayman from them.

If you press the left front fog light 4 times, the mirrors come unfolded.
