Silk Blue, I often see a tidy local Polo GT in Silk Blue and it's also available on the Polo GTI now.
I'd love this colour on a Golf GTI and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks the fifty shades of dull we have on offer in the UK is somewhat lacking in choice for the GTI models and even worse on the R where there is no Carbon Grey or Tungsten Silver (the R Lapz blue either looks really dull or absolutely fantastic depending on the light with no in between)

I'd have loved a colour like Silk Blue to have been available to order on my GTI.
The Leon Cupra comes in a nice blue, the Octavia vRS comes in a very nice blue but the colour choice for the Golf just leaves me feeling blue. (OK I do really like the white but... )
In fact seeing as my GTI is sat outside 24/7 getting sandblasted from the building site right opposite me I'm half considering changing it to a Polo GTI anyway - my garage has an opening of 2030mm and the GTI is 2027mm wide so there's no way it's going in there without a huge drama and I'm sure what the Polo lacked in the handling department it would make up for in the fun stakes.
Edit: Balls, the youtube embed didn't work
Yes, the available colour palette for the R/GTI/GTD is pretty depressing. Thus, one is directed towards three colours (in fact two if one is being pedantic).
So order your performance Golf as a Red Post Box, a White Fridge (White Goods) or a Black Hearse (these are mostly Black but some are Dark Blue). Simples.
Lapiz Blue is odd and a bit Tarty, Carbon Grey is ever so boring, Night Blue is neither here nor there, Limestone Grey is Boring Beige in most lights, Oryx White is so Toyota Prius or a tarted Fridge, Reflex Silver is being safe and possibly sorry, etc, etc ......
Oh well, just my contentious opinion and ETTO.
