I may have an addiction. Been quite a while since I’ve posted, but following a work computer upgrade, I can now use Kinja again! I replaced my E46 M3 with a 987 Cayman S a month or so ago and with the addition of my A4 Avant back in October, I now have all hatchbacks along with my wife’s GTI. Added bonus is all three can use the same oil!

Perspective a bit since it is further back. But I think it may be taller and wider than the A4.

Awesome!  Atlas Grey is a great color.  Almost picked up an Arctic Silver a couple years ago, but couldn’t make the numbers work with the P-car dealer.  I also wasn’t a huge enough fan of Arctic Silver.  Had it been just about any other color, I probably would’ve done it.

My main color criteria was no black and no silver. Would have loved something a little more colorful, but atlas grey i s unique enough.

Hah - looked at a black one too - mechanically it was great, but it had so much road r ash I had to pass.  I like black, but it’s a massive pain to keep clean and shows every imperfection.
