Interested to know which is already the most popular colour - I'm guessing Isaac or Indium but lets see....

Ordered a White Silver GTD, not seen one in the flesh, but really like it in images I've seen on here, grey was a close contender though...

Wanted Reflex Silver, but that is no longer an option. Looked at Tungsten Silver as the closest alternative, but decided it was too conservative for a GTI. The dealer had a White Silver Golf and the colour didn't appeal to me. So eventually decided to order Tornado Red. It is - in my opinion- the most vibrant, eye catching colour available. Red contrasts well with the black trim and grills on the car. Though the distinctive red stripe on the front will be less noticeable. On the downside - our A3 is red, so I know it is not going to be the easiest colour to keep.

It would be Isaac Blue for me;

- exclusive to the GTI/GTD so a bit special IMO
- quite similar to Carbon Grey that I had on my mk6 GTD - also exclusive to the GTI/GTD - and I loved that colour
2020 Polo GTI Plus; Pure White, DSG (because they all are)
Gone but not forgotten;
2016 Polo GTI; Blue Silk
2011 mk6 Golf GTD; Carbon Grey
2007 mk5 Golf GT (2.0 170bhp TDI version); Deep Black Pearl
2002  mk4 Golf GTI (the 150 bhp diesel version); Deep Black Pearl

I've ordered Indium Grey. Looked good on an R in the showroom when i was browsing and for once, my wife agreed on the colour (never happened before - she must have been distracted :smiley:).
(now changed to Tungsten Silver after actually seeing one in the metal)

If this was available for my mk7 Gti it would have been a no brainer perfect match for my other toy
 :whistle:
And if I was in the market for a 7.5 and this was available then it's what I would get  :cool:

None of the colours are that inspiring to be honest. I still like white as it makes the black fins at the front stand out but would probably go either the silver or grey next time round

Wow - Isaac is proving very popular!  I may need to change my colour choice.

Tungsten or Atlantic are appealing.  I like my current Limestone Mk7 because you don't see too many others about.

I've voted for Indium Grey after seeing one parked up outside a dealers earlier this week. I'd feared it may look at little bit beige, however it is far less beige looking than the Limestone grey GTD it was parked next to. It's more in keeping with the neutral greys that are much more my usual taste.

Having said that I might still change my mind to Isaac Blue when I finally see it for myself.

I voted indium grey as that's the colour of mine, however now I've had it for 2 weeks I wish I had picked something like Atlantic as the indium just doesn't have that Wow factor in the flesh it just doesn't pop for me.
