For something different, and easier to find in the car park amongst the sea of whites, greys, blacks, and reds, I opted for the Night Blue Metallic. Looks good from what I've seen in the photos of the new model.2013 CC 130TDI Night Blue Metallic with Driver Assistance Package, Park Assist 2, Walnut Trim and Ambient Lighting, Front Active Climate Control Seats, Towbar, and Dynaudio Premium Audio.

It appears the wife can get a base model, no options Passat CC for a company car. She's pretty happy as she's been driving various SUVs, wagons & Falcadores that were function over form for the last 25 years.
What colours hide the dirt the best? She rarely washes her car & it sits on the street 24/7. The brochure is hopeless & I doubt they have the full pallete at the dealer.
White, black & anything close to black are out.
BTW: what exterior colour matches the Truffle (red/brown?) interior?
How does the corn silk beige hold up under the rigours of an active family (2 teenagers & a medium dog)?
Yes, she should be choosing a Passat wagon but she loves the look of the CC & it isn't my money so I don't care.

Brad,
I just bought a used Passat CC in Reflex Silver. As much as a dark colour can look great, I'm very happy with my choice as:
1. Silver hides dirt really well (it's same colour as girlfriends Mazda 2)
2. Silver reflects heat well (though I have black interior with ventilated seats)
3. The colour perfectly compliments the lugano alloys and brushed aluminium interior strips
I hope this helps. Enjoy the purchase!

Her new car has been in the driveway for 15,000km.
Unfortunately, she had a brainfart & bought a Holden Captiva - burgundy if it makes any difference.
Much dissapoint.carandimage The place where Off-Topic is On-Topic

Autumn Brown - more like the colour of a good Cappuccino
My favourite still - but I think VW could have picked a better name than 'Autumn brown' for Aus or 'Light brown' for Europe. Maybe Cappuccino or even Latte? It does change colour a lot, depending on angle and light, and generally doesn't have a lot of "colour" in it - the touch up paint even looks like it's a silver ......V6 CC - Love it - ------------------ - Golf V 2.0 FSI
