wrong, Steve!
It is kindof milky white, so yes, you do see dirt on it, but not as much as you think! Trust me, I have the white GTI, and when it is dirty it looks cleaner then similarly dirty black one.

Precisely!

Black IS beautiful, but THE hardest to keep looking great. Black is gorgeous when it has its lustre, when it reflects like a mirror. But white is always white, if you know what I mean.

For me it was a choice between black and white, and I went with white because it was nice contrast to wheels and because there are toooooo many black cars around.

the white one is sh!t hot!!!!! how do they get it so low on the back arch??? sick!!  :sick:

....Yes, they both look great but running such a low suspension on the road does not result in the best handling because the tyre has very limited travel.

Manu_GTI take a look on VWVortex. Thsoe cars come off that site.

I agree that the white GTI looks  :drool:. Rims are awesome but must be a pain to keep clean.

It would have been the RIGHT choice!  :kiss:

P.S. This lowered candy white GTI in the pictures I just don't like. The rims are awful!  :sick: :sick: :sick: Arabs and rappers like this type of rims... total bling  :sick: no finesse whatsoever. Even stock Peskaras look 10 times more sophisticated

The black one is great! Silver Detroits is what you SHOULD have on a black GTI, PERIOD! mmm  :tongue:


I have to say that I don't like aftermarket rims on Golf GTIs - very very few pull it off.  However, the white GTI in the photos is one of those exceptions I think as the alloys are BBS  :drool: :drool: :drool:   Although I agree they are quite shiny and 'in yer face' but hey, its BBS and its class.
