Seriously?  You're gonna post those absolutely gorgeous carbon grey pictures again?  Dammit man!

Mate, I don't want to rub it in. But it looks soooo much better in person. Pictures do it no justice! Also, CSG is ONLY available on a GTI, so it is exclusive.

You sure it's exclusive? Looks like Dippy has ordered a GTD in carbon grey?

Stay strong Bill, stay strong! Stick with white  :grin:

The thing is CSG is a colour that could easily pass you by and you wouldn't notice it. Whereas pure white is very visible. That's why I'm sticking with white.

Both White and CSG are so awesome I don't think you can go wrong... however:

CSG looks so great.
But might get dirty real quick, white is better.
But white is so common now.
But CSG is more money.
But the wife hates white.
But CSG might push the build week back even further.
...and so on and so forth etcetera, and then your head asplode.

CSG is by far the best !!!!!!!!!!

White is for Audi's, people under the age of 25.........and cars made before 2013. By 2014 the "white craze" will be over - then you will see a guy go past in CSG and think....man, that looks amazing....

Sorry Bill, did i just make it worse........(evil laugh  :grin: )

It looks to be a demo (launch) car as there is no adaptive cruise sensor...

Hmm, that is odd.  Dealer gone mad?  Or does he have another identical one round back with the sensor?

I think they would simply replace the grill before handing it over.

They won't, they just have normal cruise control and can be insured seperately to the standard uk spec car.

Where did you see this? I always thought a titanium silver GTI would bring out the best of the back tints. Silver used to be a very popular car colour once, seems to have gone out of fashion of late.
