Looks awesome! Well done on the purchase. Now get out there and have some fun, then when you get home just sit on the drive and take in the ambient lighting. It looks unreal at night!

It looks like a mean cloud ready to piss rain all over you and zap you with lightning.Very nice. One of those colours I like to see but wouldn't own myself, like a Viper Green Scirocco (couldn't be chewed cleaning it twice a week. I seem to religiously clean my cars every week for the first year and get lazy).
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

When you say louder, do you mean the road noise is worse? Or the Engine itself is louder? I'm sure I read somewhere the engine noise is supposed to be reduced considerably.
In the cabin the engine sounds more sporty when you give it some it roars louder

Does the GTI have a sound actuator?

I think mine was on before this with pisspoor pics. Will post better ones at weekend weather permitting.
One downside(or possibly up) with CSg, is pana roof blends in and not so two tone as the black and whites

Go back a few pages on this thread (bottom of page 83) - there's a prominent pic of a Nogaro wheel from my car and you should see the caliper. If I were to paint my calipers, they would be gloss black to match the shadow detailing of the Nogaros.
