wanted pearl but ive heard bad stories
I'm fairly new to the forum too, but just have to ask that you don't make off-hand statements like this with no follow up. I don't suppose you realise how long it took to make that decision!
Only joking mate, good luck with that reversing camera
Lol, sorry, didn't mean to give you any reason to worry, for me the type of paint isn't a concern, just the look and other extenuating factors (ability to respray for damage, etc).
Pearl black looks the balls on a clean car, and I was very very tempted to go for it, but it was an extra, looks pretty similar to flat black when dirty, can be a pain on a panel respray, and just wasn't as deep a shade as flat black IMO (on the two mk6 golfs I compared against)
Again though, on a clean car, I envy you
Oh and sorry for drifting off topic
