Blu_Ray_UK2007 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I have been searching for a 2012 R8 GT to acquire, with the intention of subsequently doing a manual conversion on it. However, this particular one is causing me confusion: https://www.phofnash.com/inventory/used-2012-audi-r8-gt-5-2-fsi-quattro-2d-coupe-wua9nafg3cn900310/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blu_Ray_UK2007 Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 The ad indicates that the colour is "Suzuka Grey Metallic/Ice Silver," nevertheless, it seems to be silver in my observation. I believe the object is covered with a matte wrap, which might be altering its colour to some extent. Could someone please determine the precise colour of this automobile based on either the VIN or the pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpaco45 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 The information is included in the advertisement. Exterior colour The colour of the car is a combination of Suzuka Grey Metallic and Ice Silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blu_Ray_UK2007 Posted July 10 Author Share Posted July 10 Indeed, they are two distinct colours that were offered in 2012, correct? Is it possible for the automobile to have both Suzuka Grey and Ice Silver colours? I am attempting to ascertain its identity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrishazle Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I believe Ice Silver is referring to the frontal grilles and rear bumper segments. I am sceptical that the current colour is accurate, nevertheless, it seems to be a shade of silver or a deeper shade of grey. The primary paint used is Suzuka.

drummer Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Indeed, this is Suzuka Grey. The interplay between light and colour is evident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carBlacken Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 The misunderstanding over the identification of color(s) in the for-sale ad is likely caused by the combinations of colour options available for the MY2012 5.2 quattro Coupe. Each paint colour is associated with a certain sideblade colour. (Furthermore, customers have the option to select each paint colour with additional sideblade colours or carbon fibre.)

Trevorseaf Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Undoubtedly, the Suzuka Grey colour is the only option available for the GT model. It is quite unlikely that the Ice Silver colour was offered for this particular model. Suzuka Grey appears white in direct sunlight, but takes on a grey or silver hue with a subtle blue undertone under gloomy conditions.
