Default Wow!

I was at the Fort Worth Auto Show today. I am a "coupe guy", although I've realized over the years that I need something more practical like a sedan. There was an RC F-Sport there in Atomic Silver/Rioja Red that blew me away. Somehow the exterior color really pops on the RC, and the interior looked nice as well. I recently traded in a '15 Audi S5 Coupe for more utility, and I keep telling myself that I can't be drawn in by a sexy coupe again, but if I was it would be the RC in Atomic Silver.

On another note, the Infiniti Q60 is stunning, but the interior carried over from the Q50 is a bit of a letdown.

No, I actually traded the S5 for a '17 A4 and it is plenty of car for my purposes. Quiet, fast, handles well, more utility, updated interior and tech. Feels plenty fast and handles as well as my S5.

My friend has an atomic silver with red guts and I envy him. The colors go so so well together.

Felt the same way when I first saw the Rioja Red/ ultra white at the philly car show years ago. The RC is really hit or miss from what I've seen from other peoples opinions....either they really like it or hate it.
