At the risk of being out of line with everyone else, I think it looks horrible. I've never been a lover of green cars.

Like Sunset yellow, you will pay extra for it but it will be worth less than, say, a Race Blue in 3 years time

IMO Ford ruined the introduction of the Focus RS by doing one of only 3 colours in Electric Green

The green rs was a good seller of the colours available and the second hand market to. the car sales man i though says he will sell a green one before the other colours.

Can't agree there - the Focus RS is a stonking good looker in green IMO :yes:

and more especially, here

These new extras to the configurator in Germany look pretty cool.

nice color, but wats with the wipers?!?!?!

and that interior is not from the same green car. green stiching would go well with it though

loving the interior but no to sure about the green exterior its a grower

I think Brimmas post with its pictures has just proven the point that I was making about colour.

As I see it the top picture of the RS is in studio conditions and the colour looks really nice almost Emerald green, however the bottom picture makes it appear a Pale green, bordering on Lime Green!

That's why I've said I'll wait until I see it for real, before deciding. That's provided the colour becomes available to potential owners in the UK.

Black interior with the red stitching is a definite for the next vRS, colour is still tbc..

+1 on the leather; black is the new white (which was the new black).

To be fair the bottom picture was only added as an afterthought, just to show off RS's 'accessories'

I take you're on about those rather nice bumpers!

The green is hideous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guaranteed depreciation and no resale possibility. Gross. Best description? Boy racer Corsa puke

Slight thread hi-jack, are the big wing mirrors fitted to FL due to EU legislation?

Yes

Great, all the more for us who like them then :p

I love it , not the grille though as Bry has said a black pack would go well, love the RS lime green too, ,but the Audi is yuk!

Still not convinced on the green for something of the Octy's size, but I'll reserve final judgement until I've seen one 'for real'.

Nice interior as well - alcantara inner sections?

i like the interior, like the green, but not on the octy

I think the green needs to be a bit darker, with gloss black grille, wheels and roof and smoked headlights are an absolute must.......Octavia Monte Carlo?

Look at the new colours

Great pic of the new alcantara upholstery with red stitching. For only £100 in the UK this is a great factory-fit option and makes the full leather somewhat expensive (and redundant?). Nice to see a full size pic rather than the swatch in the new brochure. Cheers!

I see you can also get the wheels in black or white now ! :-)

Sort of related... Here's an RS4 in factory "exclusive" paint (GT3RS colour)...

Nothing to do with the car or colour, is that Madingley near Cambridge?

Nope

So is the new interior going to be an option on new UK orders fairly soon? Doesn't seem to be available on the online configurator yet.

It's in the October 2011 UK brochure/pricelist. Not yet on the online vehicle configurator though.

Just look at the link I posted.

But what I see, is that they still use the fuzzy fabric in the middle.....

Also the new colours Rallye Green and Platin Grey Metallic are in this brochure.
