    Yeah there will be standard colours that they will always have and then model year colours which will change every year or 2.

    I'd suggest if you want orange/blue/red you get one sooner rather than later as there's no guarantees they will be available in MY18.

    I know everyone's been on the edge of their seat wanting to know what colour I ended up going with, so I'll put you out of your misery... Indium Grey.

    Thanks for all the input.

    Ps why is there only one interior trim colour - black? My wife's pissed she couldn't get a lighter colour (personally I'm stoked due to maintenance).

    Indium Grey is elegant and stylish. I have Indium on my Scirocco and while I was hairs breadth from ordering the blue I've loved owning the grey.

    Now about the Orange.........

    There is a blue in my car park (non R-Line) and it looks very average.

    If I had the choice, and I'd probably regret it down the track, but an R-Line in nutshell with the right black wheels would do me nicely. LR/RR do the chocolate brown/black combo well. I reckon locally you could get a nice effect with the Habanero/black wheel combo, the polished alloy they've got just doesn't work.

    Mazda's Soul Red is their most popular color on a lot of model lines despite being the only color with an extra charge - a whopping $200. We grabbed it on our 3 and it looks great.

    I have the Habanero Orange. It is excellent. I get quite a few positive comments (not that I care). The perceived colour varies depending on the light. It looks red sometimes. I dislike blacks and greys. I prefer to see and be seen.

    I you are not including the rline pack then the Orange looks really good. Very pleased with ours. Obviously it's a non starter if you want the rline.

    My wife agreed to me buying the Tiguan only if she could choose the colour. From the posts on this forum, it looks like we might be the owners of the only ruby red Tiggy in Australia. Oh well, at least it will be easy to find in the car park.

    there must two of you as I've seen one in Melbourne. Ruby looked pretty ordinary in the material available from VW when we ordered but looks much better in the metal.
