    I think my Dad had an FB Holden in that colour grey with a milky salmon pink roof.

    I don't mid matte grey (the Velosters look great) but that Skoda looks like primer + clear (thanks Twin Dad, I couldn't put it better) & therefore a bit of a bet each way. Maybe it's better in the flesh

    Speaking of which, the veloster is also available in the primer-esque grey, they call it Battleship. I've seen one at night with it and it looks fantastic, hoping it suits the Octavia in real life.

    Yes, we have a battleship Grey Veloster with white racing stripes in our suburb. It looks good & I don't think it will look dated in 5 years time.

    That grey colour reminds me of an old bloke that lived down the road from me many years ago. He was an ex-Navy guy and managed to get hold of a load of surplus battleship grey paint and not wanting to to waste it, painted his entire house with it!

    Yep, battleship grey is a great colour for, well... battleships!

    Rather the white estate in the background or in grey

    looks like superskoda have some nice factory looking wings that are WAY better (IMO) than the factory RS wing.

    I think they have used the MK2 FL wing to model it from lol

    I hope the yellow colour is closer to the 2nd pic. I bet its just over saturated.

    as for skoda bringing the new model here. well, who knows. lets hope they don't pull out of Australia. it would explain why dealers are closing down.

    I might have to move to Europe just so I can own one

    Just noticed they said 4th qtr 2013 rather than the 4th qtr 2014 they said earlier in a "when's it coming" request.

    makes you wonder if they have some type of work experience person looking after the FB page
