Price list for the german market models here...

http://www.autobild.de/artikel/vw-golf-vii-preise-3573363.html

I went on to the German configurator and quite easily specced a Highline to well over Eur.30.000! They even charge for Tornado Red on there?

I pushed it to 40.000,-- € fully loaded (with way more than I'd need).

Tornado red ever was optional for standard Golfs, but the GTI came with uni black and tornado red as standard.

Likewise, I was prepared to be disappointed, but I actually really like it. I can certainly see me getting one next year, though it's unlikely it will be of the GTI variety.

Looks like this is what I'll be picking up once I pass with my pass my registration next year (hopefully) looks great IMO, agree with the too much silver though.... Wonder if they'd offer an all piano black variant...that would look rather nice...

....The downside of Piano Black is that it's very glossy and reflective. That's why the silver trims are invariably textured and not a chrome-like finish - Safety! You don't want any blinding flashes of light while driving. It's why I wear prescription shades and a baseball cap - Sorry to disappoint you but I'm not a drug dealer. A sudden sharp reflection can induce double-vision followed by a migrane. Fortunately it's now years since I have suffered this but largely because I take care in this respect.

The fact is though that bits of silver and fancy trim help sell cars to the masses who just want a car to get from A to B and don't much enjoy each mile like most of us do.
