Carbon Grey  FTW  :happy2:- sexy version of steel grey  :love:

Every other car on the road is white, in a few years, they wont be attracting a premium come re-sale time, as there will be amply availability.

I've yet to see another white mk5 GTI in my area!

There's more scirocco's on the road than GTI's in central Scotland...

Sounds like the decision has been made, but my vote goes to carbon grey.

I was looking at a Scirocco in carbon grey with tan leather and it looked amazing. Great combination.

Lies! It was Indium Grey.

The word "overdone" comes to mind - imho ofc. The OP has asked for my opinion and I gave it, nothing more, nothing less.
