Second that. I've yet to see a GTI with the other grey paint code.

I wonder how they come up with the name for paint codes. (The united part, not the grey  :P)

LA7T is called 'Steel grey' in Europe and 'United grey' in the US.  As for who picks the names... :rolleye:

Great colour though!  Looks great in the sun when clean and hides the dirt well in this weather.  :happy2:
