If Golfs came in a more exciting range of colours, what would you choose?

The Yanks get about the same number of colours as us.

Interesting... the first 8 colours (bar basic black) in that chart are the colours the Mkvor VI GTIs have been available here in at some stage or another.

That sure is an interesting colour selection...

And I suspect VW's reason for not allowing special order colours is to protect the dealers in the case where the customer either defaults on their contract and forfeits their deposit, or else receives the car and then complains that the colour wasn't what they were expecting and then chooses not to accept the car. Sure the customer may be liable under the contract for reasonable expenses, but I can imagine more than a few of those hues would be hard for a dealer to shift, irrespective of the compensation received.

Reseda Green - I can see that one just running out of the showroom. Or maybe that's just the customers who eyeball it.

Probably the black/purple pearl that you see on the Nissan R33 GTR. Love that colour!!

I'd like a BMW colour - http://www.bmw.com.au/com/en/newvehi.../exterior.html
Black with red metallic through it. Subaru did it on the WRX for a very short time, too.
