So there will be plenty available for me to choose from in 2 years time :p

Make it 3 years and you can buy mine! Actually might be nearer 4 if it keeps on getting delayed...

Do you like the Superb in white then? I've been getting cold feet ever since i ordered mine, convincing myself i should've ordered the dark-grey one ("cappuccino" i think). I just couldn't justify the £400 cost of it! And i wasn't willing to give up KESSY, heated seats or any other extras just for the sake of a paint job.

I would have a white one too!

It is never justified to save 2% of the cars cost and have the wrong color. Who had this idea in the first place?

Cappuccino is beige not dark grey

Seems odd when expensive options such as kessy have been specified. The boy must like his toys. :)

One witnessed a Black Elegance today, 60 plate, and I'd say that is the pick colour, it seems to proportion the car much better than other colours do.

KESSY is a cheaper option than metallic paint believe it or not! It's almost a matter of principle... why should a paint job cost hundreds of pounds? It makes no sense to me. I'd rather have a new toy like KESSY! Most cars are metallic, it's hardly a talking point. Whereas not all cars unlock automatically without needing a key, then start by pressing a button!

Thanks for the link Skippy. Mine's actually the twin-door, not the Combi. But i hope it looks just as cool! I've also gone for sunset glass, which i think will contrast well with the white paint.

I'm sure i'm not the only one that's got cold feet after ordering their new car!

You're not. I had the same dilemma over the CR140 vs CR170. But when faced with a choice of CR170 manual or CR140 DSG, the DSG won.

The dark grey is Mocca Brown. Very similar to Audi's Lava Grey, and would have been my choice except SWMBO said no.............. so ended up with Amethyst Purple and Sunset glass. I know I'm biased, but I think it looks awsome with black leather and wood trim.

Same dilemma and same outcome. The DSG is just awesome in this car. Perfectly suited to cruising up and down the motorway. Would have loved the CR170 but felt like a hooligan when I had one as a demo for a week. The CR140 is almost as quick, more economical, and meant I could stretch to the DSG. My only regret is not ordering the panoramic roof...... (oh, and ordering the the premium sounds system!)

Interesting.... I was looking to buy a CR140 but after test driving one (in a Yeti) I was seriously underwhelmed (compared to a PD130) so went for the CR170, the DSG also did nothing for me as it was not smooth enough going into 1st or reverse and the all horror stories about when they fail put me off no end.

The white color has two major bonuses: It is free and suits Superb2 best.

Hi!

I for one can agree about the free argument but not for best color. I've stumbled across a Swedish campaign for the Superb and look at this!

Sorry to say, i haven't found this as an option to order yet, it isn't Brunello Rosso in my eyes anyway. It's magnificent!

Thanks! Nice find! I like the red Cayenne and my wife like the green Agave (green olive i would say..). The yellow ones and especially the Lime green (Limetta) was... not so good...

In Czech you can order these special colors for 100Euro more than the regular metallic colors.
