All was fine until about 60 days before they started to build the car, when they informed me that they couldn't do what they agreed to, because there "wasn't enough time" Keep in mind, I ordered the car a full year prior to it's being built and the shade of silver I picked was a current Audi production color.

****ers.
I didn't know that you could do that w anyone but Porsche. I sold new Porsches, (and Audis), many years ago and at that time I remember hearing that Porsche and Rolls Royce were the only companies that painted cars custom colors or "to sample". I know that Audi didn't offer it then, maybe you have a close connection to them(?).
