        • Just remembered I actually took some photos when I went in to have a look at the vRS






          Not great photos but they're just from my phone.
          I really love the seats.

          • If I was getting a grey one, I would go for the Black Pack. That one has the Chrome Window Surrounds which don't suit it at all (IMHO).

            The silver wheels and chrome surrounds would be more suited to white (which I am also considering) - more of a stealth pack then !

              That was my first thought too!

              • I thought the chrome is an add on pack on the windows?

                  Maybe that's an option for the lift back or maybe it's for lower specs?

                    It is, factory option (for Elegance and RS only) - $150 on the sedans and $300 on the wagon.

                    • That light grey colour at night will look pretty good IMO...

                      Had a sit in it this arvo and it feels great, seats are comfy, interior is very nice...

                      • The light flat grey color is intriguing. Skoda call it steel grey. I have seen that color used on some interesting VW Group cars such as the current Audi RS6/RS7 and even the 50th anniversary Porsche 911 released last year.

                        • The seats feel amazing to sit in, but less support than the Mk2 vRS and the lack of Alcantara is noticable

                          Think I'd definitely have to get them retrimmed!

                          • I thought alcantara was an option. I'm really wondering about the headrest but have sat in one and didn't notice it either way.

                              Yeah its a very interesting colour, I'm glad that I got to see it in person before ordering. Its one of those colours that looks different in various lights, which keeps things interesting each day. Moon white also comes from some cool cars, you see it on a lot of Audi A5's where its known as Glacier White. I haven't seen it in person myself but in pictures its very subtle, sorta like candy white with more depth.

                              Problem with going white is the risk of of being just another storm trooper (White car - black wheels)

                              • Moon white/glacier white is on my short list of colours. Short list is moon white, steel grey and metal grey.Problem is no forums have pics of it yet on a VRS as like metal grey it was only introduced to be ordered from Jan 14 onwards. Hopefully examples will start to be delivered soon to euro customers.
