Here's mine (57 plate).  I've seen a few GTi's and a Pirelli in this colour but there doesn't seem to be that many about.    :happy2:

My Gti is graphite blue, I got it as you dont see too many gti's in that colour. Looking at selling it soon, just looking for my perfect 330d m sport

to be honest I don't think the colour suits england very much.. it's a very nice colour but in england its 90% rain and when it rains it makes the colour look depressing

Maybe its .just this.forum. but back in the day 05 to 08 graphite blue was the.most  popular  blue by a long way when the cars were new on a couple of mk5 forums red robin and.myself were on.

I had a Graphite Blue 05 gt

Lovely colour but it didn't really suit my car. Looks so much better on a gti or the facelift gtsport

Graphite blue looks great in these photos, but of the few I've seen in the metal at VW dealers they all look grey to me. Did the ED30 come in graphite?

The first mk5 GTI I ever saw in the flesh was in Graphite Blue, it looked fabulous in the showroom. My personal favourite is Laser Blue.
I think you can or at least could order a mk6 GTI in Graphite Blue too, seen a few on the forums but never in the flesh.

No it didn't but the colour was available for the Pirelli version.
