Might be ordering a Polo GTI tomorrow, but what color??

[Eaglehawk]

September of which year?

I would assume September 2011 since Norway is a LHD country, so their allocation wouldn't effect Australia's GTI production right?

Thomas,
Get red - less likely to get lost in the snow!

look at this thread...every colour mentioned...except...the best one...no bias here...those in the know go grey

Haha, Frostee, "tusen takk"

Right now I´m split between silver and white, silver mostly because of the easy maintenance and white because I think it really looks good! Had white before, nice paint when it comes to surface scratches etc., but it gets dirty looking real fast.. My current Golf is reflex silver and altough it might not be the most exciting color it´s so nice to have a clean look a little longer..

themmc; Probably not a bad idea going red since the winter here is pretty white from all the snow, especially the two last years
I like the red, only thing is I think the red stripes in the front disappear a little..?

77kw polo TSi; I would strongly consider pepper grey, but unfortunately it´s not avail. on the GTI....

Regarding delivery it´s expected mid. sept. this year as a MY2012 if I order it this week, still waiting on the dealer to approve my price on the trade-in though.. Hopefully everything is ok this week so I can order it ASAP!

Not sure on the alarm, I thought it had bigger impact on the insurance fee than it seems to have.. Probably just a waste then..

PS:

It´s sick that some of you have to wait until early next year to get your car!!

Thought I read wrong when I first read your posts about expected delivery....

[mr_bzr]

Noticed that you mentioned that your polo will be a MY2012 model. What are the changes from MY2012 compared to MY2011.5 already? Because I got a call from my dealer to say I can expect delivery in November this year, and its the first car through their dealership thats MY2012 as well.

The only thing he knew was different so far was LED back number plate lights.

They will probably finally get the proper looking climate control screens..... And the full delete of the under-seat drawers...

Only changes I've heard of on MY2012 is that it will get LED plate lights..

Don't know anything about the drawers..?

Wouldn't mind if they put in the white screen for the climate control, fits better with the interior..

Still haven't heard nothing regarding the trade-in....

I have ordered red. A sales person once said to me that white is fine unless you are driving in the snow country in winter. No one can see you properly. If you aren't a skier it don't matter.

Finally ordered!!

See new thread.......
