So I tagged this guy, kind of against my better judgement. The orange paint is sprayed directly on top of the original Tungsten Gray, which I know because it is flaking off on the trunk lid. There's a black rubber-looking small lip spoiler on the trunk, which actually looks kind of good.

The color itself looks nice on the car, but with overspray on the mufflers and tailpipes and the peeling part, it looks amateur. Maybe a re-do with primer would make it look better.

Still, I tagged it. Obviously likes his Mazda. Just wanted it an Audi color.

I actually like the color on the 6...just not the paint job itself.

Space village, right outside PAFB's north gate. There's a place there to park your car and take the bus to Schriever. It was in one of those spaces.

I would bet that this guy didn't paint it- he bought it off a used lot that way. I'm basing that solely on the dealer badge being still on.

That could be a good point. Maybe it was traded that way. Saw the kid driving it out to Schriever today on Hwy 94.
