    Hi guys, I'm about to order my Q7, and this forum has been brilliant in helping me make my mind up about things, and learning about the car, so thank you!

    However the one thing I cannnot make my mind up on and I'm going around in circles trying to decide, is the colour. I know it's very subjective, but I'd love to hear your views, and what you ordered, and ideally photos

    I had decided on the Daytona Grey, but then thought perhaps Graphite Grey looks better. Then once I've decided it's between those two, I start wondering about the Sepang Blue again, which is where I started when I first decided to buy the Q7!

    I've seen them all in the flesh, but not side by side which may have helped! (and sometimes I think the Ink Blue would look good, although not seen one)

    Arghhhh

    Welcome to the forum and you'll find we all have our views on colour as per one of the other threads!
    Whichever colour you choose make sure you're happy with.

    I went Daytona and am happy with it.

    Sepang is great and I would've gone for it but at the time i got my car I couldn't see one in the flesh.

    Graphite Grey is also nice and better set off on some of the two tone wheels

    Here is a tip I used, as you cannot see all cars in all colours at a dealership. I went to the Audi UK site, searched for used cars and filtered on the current Q7, once done you will see a variety of colours, spec and wheel combinations to give you a better idea.

    I've gone for the Sepang Blue, most car orders seems to be grey, black or white but Sepang is rare in comparison. Don't forget there is the new Garnet red which is on the SQ7 if you look around for images/youtube but its an Audi Exclusive paint so a bit more expensive.

    Just been through the "Sepang or Daytona" dilemma myself and I've plumped for Sepang. Saw an S Line in Sepang up close the other day and it looks magnificent...I've not seen a Daytona one in the flesh yet though. That Garnet Red that Bathurst mentioned is stunning in the pictures but you can forget it at £2,155! I'll stick with Sepang which is still a great colour.
    MY17 SQ7, Sepang Blue, 22s, and lots of toys.
    MY16 Passat Bluemotion GT, Reflex Silver, 19s, only a few toys.

    Happy with my Daytona and when I collected, dealer had a graphite grey in the showroom. Quite a subtle difference but Daytona is darker

    I use the same showroom as srbsq7 and looked at the same car. On YouTube etc the Graphite looked great but in the flesh had a brown tinge. I travelled around local dealers to view colours in the flesh. Saw Daytona and went for it, no regrets.

    For me when I saw the 21" titanium wheels on the demo that they had I was sold. I was not a huge fan of the new Q7 looks at first until I saw one with those wheels. Wheels can make a car. Needless to say now I love the look of the Q.

    I originally wanted Sepang blue but at the time it was more expensive and the other half talked me out of it saying it might be too bright on a big car.

    I settled for Daytona grey and liked it alot. Had problems with my original Q7 and the courtesy car they gave me was florret silver. Over the time I had the courtesy car I fell in love with the silver (also looked cleaner for longer) and when they couldn't fix mine I opted for florret silver on the replacement which is due next week!
