The 'Black Edition' Trend of hatch backs
Discussion
First i saw a 'black edition' Corsa, this was a warm-hatch, not as hot as the VXR, but not as tame as a 1.2, Then there was a 'Black edition' Fiesta, in a similar position, Now i have just seen a 'Black edition' Civic.
What is this trend? if they are all trying to target the same market, why have car makers not thought of something a little more original?
Has anyone bought a 'black edition' of car if so, what was the appeal?

Vauxhall also do the white edition as far I'm aware the white one is 1.4, 18inch alloys, white leather bolsters and white cloth centres and completely pointless. But are lapped up by girls who can say they have a limited edition.
How do you know I hear you ask? the gf has the white edition, no you can't have pictures, no we dont agree it was the right car.

It's just another stupid, marketing lead, name for a spec level. No different to the word "Sport" being misused for the same purpose.
I'm sure I saw an Aygo 'Black' earlier this week...
Made no difference, still a line of traffic behind the little s
t box. Not sure why anyone would end up waiting behind an Aygo, we have a C1 which is the same thing and it is by no means fast but it is plenty quick enough to keep up with traffic, in fact I tend to end up stuck behind other people in much more powerful cars who are dawdling, suspect that is mostly the driver.

I beleive there is also an 'Amplified Black Pack' available for one of the tedious 'Black Edition' S-Line Audi's. A1 I think.
There was an Amplified Edition last year, limited run that didn't last long. But no such thing as an Amplified Black Pack itself on an A1, you may be thinking of the TT?RussH91 said:

How is it pointless if people want them and buy them? I'm sure people don't buy them to say they have a limited edition, probably just because they like the look of them.How do you know I hear you ask? the gf has the white edition, no you can't have pictures, no we dont agree it was the right car.

No idea, was some 2 litre diesel hatchback covered in bling which is what, half the Audi range these days, so I appreciate that it doesn't help narrow it down
