Thanks sekas. There's plenty of reading there. Look forward to more of your posts containing links. It's always easier to ask others to do the leg work.

DrK, you have been a good patient! Congratulations on being decisive and leading by example. Your choice of colour and options leaves nothing on the table. Your white Mk6 looks gorgious, too good to say adios to! I hope your new medicine does not leave you wanting more.

Had to be grey. My r32 was deep blue pearl, Subaru before that was silver. Thought about white again for a while...
Love black - but too hard to maintain.
Red screams 20year old boy racer.
Options - go of resale down the track
Mixed emotions on selling the mk6 - has been and remains an amazing car.
Sure the mk7 will be the perfect remedy for losing the mk6 ......

Nice work Doc. There's a great photo a few pages back of a limestone grey with black pretorias which looks the biz. How did you go with pricing?

Love that, im only 22 getting lapiz blue because blue is my favourite colour and it just happend to look really good.
Funny about the boy racer part, i help run the NT car club and i would say the only people with red are the ones with commodores. All the boy racers prefer white and black.

Andrew - can't seem to find that pic?? Would love the pretorias... Hopefully we can get them later down track. Might go non OEM instead me thinks...
Pricing still TBC. Dealer reckons late this week tho. Fingers crossed.

Sekas - nice one mate. My bro just picked up a red mkv Gti 5door - DSG/stage1/AWE catback. Lives in Alice Springs.
Be interesting to see the blue this time around - loved the Deep Blue Pearl in my mkV R32!!

Nice work Sekkas, that's the shot. Doc, assuming Pretorias are a no go something like a black Oz Ultralegga would work well. Have also seen a NZ Lapiz Blue R with Cadiz rims custom painted gloss black (similar look to the current Talledegas)

[DrK]

Thinking about silver wheels this time around - to tie in with mirror caps.
I've already had two cars with gloss black rims

I think the silver with the grey will look alright.
Maybe like these OZ racing
Or even these VWR (springs too)
