What do you think is best colot for a gti, i know top demand is white right now.

I was going to get it blue virtual but its not as dark as i wanted it to be.

Hi Mello, any colour but red would be my choice. (I'm colour blind so red looks decidely dull to me). White would definitely be my favourite colour though.

White, Red or Black look good to me - see pics of Black in another thread in Newbies section.

It's all about the white! They didn't do a blue release in the uk

 

[mello]

I ordered mine black

WHITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that ALL the colours of ALL the 208s are horrid. They are OLD MAN colours, essentially just shades of Grey or tinted Grey.

Peugeot need to get some Yellows, Reds, Oranges, Greens and Bright Blues onto the car. And it's easy to do, just borrow some tins of paint from the Citroen DS3 line.

The black pearl is awesome.

I'm still happy with the red GTi (in Aust they call it Le Mans Red but it seems the same as Rioja). Brilliant in bright sunshine ! But nearly as hard to keep clean as my previous black car. Definitely not an OLD MAN colour.

I chose white for my GTI because I could take delivery within a week of ordering, glad I did now, white always looks good even when dirty.

Black! Looks like the batmobile

 

[The_Stig77]

Black, because its stealthy, looks different enough to stand out from a standard 208 but still looks fairly standard enough to surprise most car drivers!!!

Here is my GTi due for delivery 1st march 2014 in the Rioja Red

 

[JBD]

Nice! Dunno how you can wait 2 months for that though

 

[golfguy]

I have been waiting since the 208 GTi was rumoured back in march 2012! Just 7 weeks 6 days to go!!

 

[Tarmac_terrorist]

I think the 4 colours it comes in look good. Didn't know you could get blue? When did they introduce that ?


White sometimes on a hatch back can look like a van. Not so much on the lovely GTi but on fiesta's etc IMHO.

g'day Golfguy,

Love your choice ! I've had my RED GTi almost 5 months now, and absolutely love it. Great car, and great colour. The colour appears different in different light and weather conditions. In dull light almost maroon, and in bright sunlight (I get a lot of that) it looks 'candy apple red'. I love it more each time I see it !

Mine is white, or should that be Bianca !! .
I'm struggling to manage with only 3 more days to wait ..... good luck to you golfguy ..
(They don't look too bad in red either ) !!

 

[w4yne]

Got mine in white yesterday - well happy so far.

 

[Specnut727]

Congratulations ! Now, like the rest of us, you'll need to explain the smile on your face fairly often !
