Scirocco R - Best Colour?

[ConR]

What do you guys think?

Personally, I like white, followed by blue. What I can't decide on is whether I like the white better with the silver rims, or with painted black. Thoughts?

Indium jumps to an early lead but somehow i think it is going to come down to CW or RB

[ConR]

Yeah I don't mind the indium. I'd love to see a silver with black wheels. That would be mad.

But, CW with silver or CW with black? Can't make up my mind. Need help!

[SteNZnet]

Black like mine

[ConR]

Black like mine

Did you get yours powder coated? Or are they aftermarket? If powder, where at?

I'm thinking the Deep Blue Pearl Effect in the poll is meant to be Deep Black Pearl?

[ConR]

Yeah, crap. Sorry about that all. Typo.

I personally think RB is the best color. My last car was gunmetal silver and it was nice, but since I'm getting a more sportier car and spending a lot more money, I chose RB to stand out a bit more from the everyday car colors you see on the road already. Also, the fact that they're not charging extra for metallic paint is a massive win. My mate got charged $500 more for his golf. And I love the shade of blue and the gradient effect when looking at it. Goes perfectly with the silver rims. Def love RB!

Looking at the sciroccocentral forum where more than 1300 votes have been cast it is clear that CW and RB are the firm favourites there. The black too is popular.

They have several additional colours not available here Salsa Red, Sumatra, Shadow blue plus two variations in each of silver and grey. Not all are R colours though. I quite like the sumatra.

From what I understand there is little choice of colour here in Oz
We seem to ghet the overflow.
I wanted grey and didnt want to wait 9 months
Hence the VG

I wanted the grey (or blue) but couldn't find a full spec dsg at the time. All that i could find were black and viper. Didn't want viper so that was simple. Thought about black but am getting out of a black car so ordered the grey and am waiting 7 months.

[ConR]

I wanted whatever I could find as I wasn't going to wait 6+ months for a car

Got lucky and found one in CW, which was one of my preferences!

For me on a bright sunny day you just can't go past the VG, spectacular would be the correct word. RB would be my second colour but did not choose that since my previous car was also blue. As for grey white and black, personally I just don't like them much and don't think any colour but the VG shows off the hot lines and shape of the car as well.

If the green was darker I'd like it. As it is it reminds me of a Mazda2 I see driving around. Very feminine.

Good point! Actually Mazda are pretty close to matching all the VW colours. A colleague of mine keeps mistaking a previous generation Mazda3 for my RB rocco
