Do Kinetic Blue 6MT Ebony/Silver's Exist?

I can't seem to find any dealer within 5 states of Texas that has a 6MT Kinetic Blue Type S with Ebony/Silver combination. This is nuts! Does anyone know of a dealer that has one of these? If I can't find the combo that I want, I might (gasp) pick up a used Audi S4.

I know that it's available in Canada as I dont' think we have to taupe option. Also, I do believe the KBP tested R&T was with Ebony/Silver.

I'm sure it's available, but I can't find a single dealer (I've called at least 12) that has one of these!

if you want speed, pick up the used s4, and make sure you get an extended warranty. My friend picked up his S4 (2000) in Nagaro blue for about 23k, dropped another 15k into it, and bam, he's at 500 awhp. (then again, he did 99% of the work himself) It's insane....

April's the wrong time to buy. High demand in the spring.

I bought my 2006 in almost exactly 1 year ago. I wanted a 6MT WDP on Ebony with Navi. NOTHING om the east coast for 3 months+.

I couldn't wait as i need a daily driver, so i went for a WDP on parchment. With a small amount of mod work, I still love it...

But my advice, if you really want that color combo, hold out or special order.

It's not that I'm looking for a car for speed. I have a 260+whp turbo street bike, and a couple of cars to drive (05 M3 and 06 GS430). I'm looking for a specific car, and I'm tired of driving auto's or SMG cars. My good friend has a 05 Nogaro Blue S4, and I've driven the car and liked it a lot, but it's the non-turbo V8 6MT. For the same money as picking up a used S4, I can get a New Type S with nav, factory warranty, and unmolested. It's just frustrating since Kinetic Blue is a Type S specific color, and they don't have any 6 spd's out there. Just doesn't make sense to me.

ooh ok. Alrighty, i guess w/ those toys (especially that bike), you don't need the S4 hahaha. In that case, just wait it out. As Kennedy said, now is not the right time to buy a car. If you wait, it'll come to you

I just ordered exactly what I wanted. Took a couple months, but only had 6 miles on it when I took delivery.
