  • What colour is your 6R Polo?

    Just curious...

    Mine will be Black - not great for QLD, but beggars can't be choosers (picked up a cancelled order).

    I have yet to see a member state that they chose Shadow Blue Metallic, which is a GTI exclusive colour. I would have thought this would have been desireable. Has nobody ordered one? If not, why not?

    The GTI I test drove was shadow blue. It was nice, don't get me wrong, but it just didn't do it for me. To me it seemed too dark. I went for candy white because I like the contrast of the paint with the black vents & grille. I also have plans for charcoal coloured wheels, which I think look great on white cars.

                Red because it goes faster

                Looking back on it, maybe I would have chosen candy white if I had to do it again - looks rather good with the contrast... but still happy with red

                  We have the Candy White 77TSI, but looking back maybe Red & TDi - You want to swap LOL.

                    Lol I wouldn't mind but I don't think that's possible given our respective locations :-P ... I wanted the TSI too but I'm still on green P plates until November (no petrol turbos), hence going the TDI. I do miss the revs of petrol cars but the diesel torque is quite nice. Fuel economy is too. Who knows, maybe a swap would be on the cards a while down the track, but enjoy the white TSI - I would

                          My will be white - but red was the other option I was considering. It looks really good in Red. (My cars so far I've always bought the colour used in the brochures, so this time I'm doing something different!).

                              The first colour I considered was blue, but couldn't find one for sale without going through the build/wait process. Mine was a demo - only red, white and silver to choose from.

                              I would have loved the tiguan's Catalina Blue colour on the Polo...
