My MK5 was in Steel Grey, loved that colour on the mk5 and love it on the mk6.
Classy, understated and discreet.
In fact I've only seen two mk6 GTIs in Steel Grey, so it's not too common either (not that you could call mk6 GTIs common thanks to the build delays).
It suits the GTI. The grey contrasts well with the black bits and red highlights & looks even better with the shiny and black Shadows.
However I saw a new Polo in that colour yesterday, looked dull as hell (and a new Polo looks just like a base model Golf but taller) and it drove straight through a red traffic light! In fact it overtook me who was sat at said traffic light to drive straight through it. I know that's got nothing to do with the topic, but I thought I'd mention it anyway!
