This pops up a while ago, what I've been looking for since late 05 and now I can't jump on it. The aggrivation factor is maxed out. Grrrrrrr.

Cassisrot is like metallic pink

This looks brown like that golden brown. There was a salvage title 87 S4 on ebay too in i believe the same color

Or if by cassis rot you mean cause it needs paint you would paint it cassisrot then yeah i guess its the right color lol

Hey Doc:

If it needs paint, like this one says it does, why does the color matter???

Changing the paint color correctly is a many-hundred hour job. Sure, you could mask and shoot the jams and the hatch surround but the firewall, fender liners, inner fenders front cross member, and under-hood would all be original. To do it right, you need to just about disassemble the chassis and shoot everything that was shot from the factory. Much better to start with a correct color car and just redo the outside, and some of the trim spots if needed.

I sent a message asking about the color code, maybe it is brown.

There was an S4 for sale here in the DC area last year. I have some pics and can see if it is still for sale if you need. Or you can do it yourself. Check out the email addy on the attached image.

I'm not what you would call 'many'. Most don't like it, or think it's gurly.

Doc,

Did you buy the red 5 spd 86.5? If so, you got the better of the two
