I'm not keen on white silver, looks weird when you first see it. Looks like a base coat. Each to their own, I'm sure with the right products on the paint it could look good  :undecided:

I'm also in the no camp for white silver. Really wanted to like it but having seen quite a few cars at dealers it really is a very light dull flat grey. If going white then Pure White looks a million times better.

I have a Tungsten silver GTi and would happily own a white CS. I really like the silver white colour on the Mini Cooper S.
There is a new white silver GTi local to me, it just doesn't work for me at all.

VW really seem to offer these colours that don't work?

I looked at a limestone grey GTi and could only see an earthy brownish, grey, fine for a Passat.

No offence meant to anyone who ordered one, maybe it will grow on me with familiarity?

Unfortunately the range of colours for the so called performance Golfs has got to be the poorest choice ever.
Bring back Carbon Grey and Reflex Silver would be a start !!

I've seen a few WS GTD and GTi's I like it most of the time. I seen a purple GTiin the sun the other day and I actually liked it. It had 19" wheels and a sunroof so not a cheap lease either.

The current range of colours is exceptionally poor with the exception of Pure White which looks great on a performance Golf. However having had a pure white GTD for nearly 4 years a change was needed. Also think red looks good but I'm not a red car person for whatever Reason and my wife is even less so.

Hence the Indium Grey box was ticked as best of the rest.
