Official Dakar Beige Thread!

[B6Lovin]

yeah. it's 5am and i cant sleep.

this is gonna be an empty thread. lol.

i really wonder if there's anyone out there who got the "champagne" a4 and modded it. that would be a sight to see. hahahaha

[B6Lovin]

bump. i know that SOMEONE out there has a modded beige B6 A4.
or atleast knows someone who does..

or has a picture of one.
or something.


p.s. -- i've only seen ONE a4 this color in my entire life, it was a CVT (auto, fronttrash) pre-04 (unpainted lowers) and driven by a 17 year old girl at the highschool i graduated from lol.

let's hope someone can raise the bar above that...

[JerseyShoreA4]

she's gonna be the only one that posts on this thread.

raises hand sheepishly.

we should change the thread title to canvas beige as that's the actual color (dakar beige is the b7 color)

2003 1.8T quattro tiptronic. yes tiptronic sucks but my wife also drives this car.

Mods:
- USP front upper and lower
- painted lowers
- single Xenon blackout e-codes
- blackout grilles
- smoked side markers
- 18" ASA AR2 with Kumho Ecsta SPT
- tint, don't know the percentage
- sport suspension (again can't go too low due to wife factor and Canadian winters)
- S4 rear sway
- GIAC stage 1+ with TT225 injectors
- 710N DV
- AVIC D3 with Sirius and iPod
- Podi boost gauge

Putting summer rims on Saturday so I'll throw some pics up then.

You either like the color or you don't - I like it but it wouldn't be my first choice second time around.

[AudiA4Turbo22]

^^i think with painted lowers that he has the color wont be too bad! it might be pretty! on a B5 A4 the beige is one of the best colors!

[B6Lovin]

^^wait, really? you really have that color? (p.s. - sorry for getting it wrong)

dude, PLEASE post pictures. I really want to know what it looks like w/painted lowers, usp, and non-16" stockers.

I'm genuinely excited to see pictures of your car. I wasn't really making fun of the beige a4, i just didn't think anyone on the boards actually had one - so no need to raise that hand sheepishly. get that shit up and be proud! lol

[A4ringedONE8T]

This is one of those odd colors just like the light baby blue whatever its called. Im sure done right, it would look killer. Beige with gold wheels, hmmmm .....

[scorneil]

ha ha, yes i really do. weekend i'll get up some pics. right now my winter 16" stocks are on and it looks gross.

[B6Lovin]

hahaha i hear ya. i rolled on the stock 16's while i was slammed for like, 5 months.


and x2 on beige with gold wheels

[Capt. Obvious]

I would totally rock a beige A4 with a black interior. I think my current mods (wheels, suspension, chrome mirrors, body work, etc.) would look incredible on beige. MMMM, a beige AVANT with my mods... yummy.

[B6Lovin]

darrick, you're such euro-trash. lol

[A4ringedONE8T]

haha I posted that for you, knew you would say that!

[AudiA4Turbo22]

now the only 2 colors i don't like are Everest Green, and Baby Blue! especially with unpainted lowers! but the beige i've seen one and it was NIIIICE!

[B6Lovin]

you hate green??? REALLY???? lol


i LOVE green. actually, its my favorite color right behind my fav above ALL others -- the hybiscus red pearl (i think that's the name anyways.. it's a burgandy) that comes on b5's. why the fuck didn't we get that option? Burgandy w/black interior and black/grey accents looks AMAZING (think cf hood with teh sides painted, blackout grills, ecodes, etc etc etc)

and shawn -- i had a feeling you did.
when are you ever gonna get your bling? i know i know, after the engine... but YOUR CAR IS RUNNING! QUIT YAPPIN AND GO GOLD!

[A4ringedONE8T]

REALLY???? DUDE!

My car might be on the chopping block, might have found its replacement! Time for some power!

[AudiA4Turbo22]

^^ u like forest green?????? ur high! but burgundy with gold or gold chrome would look awesome!

[Sleepy 1]

12 hrs and still not one pic...

[B6Lovin]

12 hrs and still not one pic...

he said this weekend lol. i'm as excited as you are though hahaha

My car might be on the chopping block, might have found its replacement! Time for some power!

....you know you'll regret it later on if you sell it. it's such a nice car man -- just don't make a downgrade. (that's all im gonna say lol)

green rules when it's done right. there was a SICK green a4 on the forums for awhile, i think the owner parted everything out and sold it though
and yes - burgandy with gold looks amazing... and i still dream about my car being burgandy one day lol

[A4ringedONE8T]

Looking at picking up a MK4 VR6 GTi, and of course making it worthy. That should easily get me in the 500's on pump! To be honest, my personal $$ is lacking these days as everything is staying in the business, and my car is not want I want it to be right now. Being that I dont have the money to put into it anymore, it would be nice to bank some money off selling/parting my car, pick that up and have it done, with power, for less money. Especially with my wedding coming up in a few months, it would be nice to have some free extra money. Sometimes you gotta make choices, I stuck alot of money into the business and its going great, however a new business needs capital more than I do! Gotta do what I gotta do, bigger better projects will come for sure but I think this is the right path for the time being!

[jcg05c]

your just power hungry now and want a car that isnt so fat:) Have you found one yet? A guy i met in tallahassee when i was there last time was trying to sell his red mk4 vr6 gti which already has a supercharger on it too.

I saw a 04-05 b6 in the burgundy with black interior in my local Home Depot lot. I was walking to my truck and was like "WTF!!!" Looked good with the painted lowers. But when the lady driving pulled out behind me and didn't have xenon, I didn't feel so bad.

[Pete4 1.8t]

Here's one from ebay, it looks pretty nice, I'll stick with my silver though!
clicky!

I want a Goodwood green one!

[lorvar]

This is one of those odd colors just like the light baby blue whatever its called. Im sure done right, it would look killer. Beige with gold wheels, hmmmm .....

It's called Crystal Blue Metallic and it's my wife's car also. I'll have pics up at the end of next week once the exterior mods are done.

[michgo]

I have yet to see beige....

/cry

[lorvar]

I've only seen one and it was being driven by a woman.

[scorneil]

Teaser (crappy from my Blackberry pic). More and better quality on Sunday.

[AudiA4Turbo22]

What A Nice Car!!!!!! Needs Off Colored Mirrors Though Like Black Or Chrome!

[scorneil]

no chrome, black mirror covers would be tight

[B6Lovin]

dude. that looks awesome!

[skeeball]

Goodwood Green rules over all.

[scorneil]

thanks man.

you might want to hold your opinions until you see my wheel gap and my neglected rear (I still have debadge and installation of my Vibrant exhaust tips on my to-do list)

[scorneil]

here are a few more. if this is going to be an official thread, can we change it to the actual name? it's pretty great telling people your car is "canvas beige"

[AudiA4Turbo22]

^^ it looks pretty good even with unpainted lowers, i'd still paint them though!
