Hi Nav, ive got a gti in pure white - love the heated seats (never had them in a car before), find the sat nav a bit disappointing but that's only due to it not knowing some of the postcodes ive typed in (prob needs an update). The map itself is ok, not spectacular but not rubbish.

I think the Dynaudio includes some sort of bass woofer loudener or something. Not specced that on mine.

Ive seen a carbon grey and it looks lovely.

I always though that Carbon Grey could look very dull in anything other than bright sunlight. Then it needs to be spotlessly clean.

White looks good, but I still prefer Tornado Red.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Gone for DPB myself, not a colour I would have chosen if I went for a factory order, (got one that was already in the UK) but have to say it's really grown on me and looks very smart indeed (as long as it's clean!). Looks especially good in contrast with the bright white LED DRLs. Love it. Would definitely choose again!

Oh, and composition media only refers to the head unit. Dynaudio is the sound upgrade, which includes a 10 channel amplifier, subwoofer, and upgraded speakers. I have it specced and once the EQ is setup it's crystal clear at all volume levels and brings the best out of good music. Wouldn't be without it. It's not just a sub in the boot to impress the kids in the car park with! :P

Thank you so much guys, I test drove a white 1 other day, looks really good but white everyone's got, want to look a bit different, it was between Dynaudio and heated seats, gone for heated seats, it's very useful in the cold weather. Probably the standard sound system should be good, i love my music tho ha  :cool:

I went for common white and so far am delighted with how it looks, so bright and shiny. Only got it on Friday mind.

it was between Dynaudio and heated seats, gone for heated seats

Not such a good call... you won't need heated seat unless you have leather...

I can assure you that they'll still get used extensively! I use them every morning, bloody brilliant, just as good with cloth. :)
