Re: Clubsport Black Roof or not?

My answer would be, Why? It does nothing to the car at all, if it was a carbon option yes, but adding a bit of VW vinyl? No sorry not for me.

The only thing that must be spec'd are the seats...

Thanks for the replies, I think we will go for it then!

I'm not getting the seats though, not just because of the price, and fact you have no centre arm rest, roller blind, and ambient lighting etc, but mainly due to access issues.

Not going for Dynaudio either this time, as never thought it was worth it. Do people still rate the standard stereo?

My sister has the standard stereo in her avatar and I have Dynaudio I. My car and the difference is massive IMO, Dynaudio is well worth the upgrade and is quite reasonably priced

Get the black roof but change from the carbon grey... The roof is a unique feature but it's going to stand out against a contrasting colour

A mate had an S1 with an optioned black roof. He assumed it was painted as it looked so much link paint, with no visible edges, but his detailer found out it was vinyl just before setting about it with the rotary.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Have a high end Denon system at home, as well as Sonos Play 1, 3 and 5 in the varying rooms, so hopefully understand what decent sound is.

Had the Bose upgrades in my previous Quattro and always felt that it was wasted in the car environment to which when went for standard set up was a thinking that was confirmed.

The standard set up is decent and perfectly acceptable for the car environment. My Heaven 17 Penthouse and Pavement does not miss too much and think thats a decent album test.

If a real audiophile and do long steady cruising journeys then there is maybe a case as you will get more benefit in environment but in the day to day the standard holds its own - in my opinion  :sad:  as sound is one of most subjective areas
