I saw a White Silver facelift Mk7 Golf (not a GTI, GTD or R) here in the U.K the other day parked at my local DIY store. Up until then, I'd quite liked it in all the videos and pictures I'd seen of this colour but was quite underwhelmed and disappointed when I actually saw it 'in the flesh'. It was a dull day, and in cloudy, overcast weather conditions it reminded me of the colour of undercoat/primer - looked like VW had forgotten to apply the colour coat!
No doubt some people will love it, but it's not for me. Guess it's good we don't all like the same things.
