Mk7.5 GTi/GTD colours
« on: 26 February 2017, 20:37 »
Isaac Blue or Indium Grey could be my next colour choice.  Any IT savvy member out there able to post up cars in those colours here for comparison?  Have seen some colours on various reviews, but they never actually tell you what colour you at looking at!

The mk7.5 GTD reviewed by Top Gear is Isaac Blue. IMO very similar to Graphite Blue that was a mk5/mk6 Golf colour. I think this would be the colour I'd go for if I was considering a new mk7.5 Golf. Looks particularly good in the 7th picture;

You need a good monitor - from the review above this appears to be an Isaac Blue GTD -



I'm not sure about blue with red, but Isaac blue looks good against the tail lights too...

VW media services - is this Indium Grey?

Edit: it has the same reg :undecided: - so Isaac Blue again? Note to self - don't do this on a laptop!

Must be my eyes or my screen, but that looks a lot like the old carbon grey to me.

Indium Grey looks just like Carbon Grey to my eyes. Not necessarily a bad thing but a few new vibrant  shades would have been nice.

Indium Grey looks considerably lighter than Carbon grey to me.
I like it a lot :smiley:

Can we get a pic of Isaac Blue & Indium Grey side by side posted up here guys - then we'll see a real comparison?

The cars are different colours and the reason they have the same numberplate is they're just press dept photoshops (brochure studio 'photos' heavily edited and fake backdrops)
