Just configured a Golf GTI on the VW website. I know the colours in the configurator aren't a true representation of the actual colour, but based on an Isaac Blue and an Indium Grey Golf in the configurator, IMO the colour in the photo above looks much more like Isaac Blue than Indium Grey. Whichever of the two it is, I like it!
I had to go have another look on my desktop monitor.
@Exonian - sorry, you are right 
@SRGTD - it is a fecking gorgeous colour. I believe the Germans call it Dark Iron Blue.
This photo is from the review also, and does look quite grey, even in my monitor! -
I looked at the pics on several different monitors myself then googled a load of Indium Sciroccos as it does look very ambiguous depending on which of the collection of photos you're looking at.
Why they had to rename it for the UK is anyone's guess, being as it's an English name on the German konfigurator.
If it had been Dunkel Eisen Blau (sp?) or something then it'd make a bit of giving us a more familiar sounding name that posh old ladies could walk in a dealership and pronounce.
Anyway Daz, Isaac and Indium will both be invisible in the dark!
As SR says though, it's very reminiscent of Graphite on the previous chassis generation cars.
