Hi,

I just spoke to a VW dealer over the phone and he said that carbon steel grey IS available on their internal configurator (he checked all the colours for a Gti). I told him to check on the VW site and he said there was some inconsistency because it wasn't available there.

The fact is, you can order the carbon steel grey because they wouldn't be using the vw website configurator in any case.

Carbon grey is an option here too in Ireland.  I have to say though that unless the sun is shining, it looks a little dreary to me, I'm not sure. We get so little sun here!

I'm so tempted to go with white again (currently have a white MK6 GTD)...

As it looks like my fav colour, Sunset Red Metallic, isn't available in the GTD, does anyone know what colour that GTD was at the Geneva motor show ? Was that Sunset Red or plain Tornado Red ?
