GT Silver does look awesome, especially as the day goes on! But I think only on the 40th cars right? I don't think you could even get it on the TTs without paying through the nose. I love black but it is a lot of work. I think my happy medium is seal or slate, next time.

I believe you are correct. I think the GT silver was an option after 2004. Seal would be my first choice after GT silver.

What's the color code? If we know the code, we can identify the color.

I have always been partial to black. I love the reflections. The thing I like about the GT silver is it's ability to hide minor scratches and dust. I wash her every week none the less, but it "stays looking clean" longer.
