Which colour Golf R would you choose from:

1) Limestone Grey


2) Lapiz Blue


3) Reflex Silver

[Oscar011]

It’s between Lapiz Blue and Reflex Silver for me.
I think Lapiz Blue edges it for me..

Do they do any other colours?

Lapiz Blue or Limestone Grey would be my choice.

I recently saw one in a sort of gold/yellow colour. I thought it really suited the car.

Yes, there is another metallic blue, tornado red, pearl white and metallic black. All cheaper options than the fancy signature blue colour.

Personally I'd have a red one but out of the colours suggested by the OP I'd go grey and add some colour details like bright calipers an subtle carbon bits. The blue is a good choice, however in my opinion it makes the car too easily recognisable as an R

The blue just edges it over the grey for me.

I'm toying with the idea of a Golf R as a 'run-around'.

But, I find the 5-door styling very humdrum and staid. Looks so much nicer as a 3-door.

And the colour choices are very 'run of the mill'. Shame that there aren't some more interesting options.

Yeah I think I would go for red. They are all very safe colours though.

The darker Atlantic Blue looks very classy too

There may be, if VW would consider extending its Spektrum program beyond the USA.

Grey

Lapiz Blue - is the signature/launch colour for the car and bespoke to the R (good as it's unique, but does hightlight it to scumbags). Most popular of the 3 colours, looks great when clean, but some people do complain about the orange peel effect of LB paint.

Limestone Grey - is very understated and classy, looking but maybe a little too corporate and unexciting in the sea of grey on todays roads. Less choice than LB but more than RS.

Reflex Silver - looks fantastic when clean and hides dirt well (had it on a Mk4), but again the world has moved on from Silver so maybe a bit last year. Very few cars so harder to find, but great for resale as low numbers.

Reflex or Limestone for me.

Limestone for me

You could be a limestone cowboy

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

Limestone

Limestone... I’ve seen plenty around in the other two colours, the grey seems more unusual

[AI1694]

Has to be Lapiz blue!
