Thread: How 'gold' is really the Moonrock Silver Metallic? I have a Candy White TDI SW on order

  1. 08-18-2012 06:55 PM #1
    but my patience is running thin. 2 months in......They have a moonrock silver metallic coming in (almost here) which I can get but I can't find a dealer with that color that I can take a look at nearby.

    I'm in LA. I've been looking at pictures online but there is a wild swing in the 'gold' tone in the color. Subtle is good, Camry gold is not.

    If it's close to silver, but not quite, it's great.

    TIA.

    I was at the dealer today and they said a Moonrock wagon was coming in next week . I looked at a color chart a few times and still am not sure on the color.
    Camary Gold.... Good discription on what I don't want .

    I work at a VW dealer and the Moonrock silver is very much gold.

    Saw a Moonrock this morning at the dealer .. Kind of a light gold . Looks a little too Mom and Dad for me . I don't think I could walk out to the garage every day and look at this color..

    was white gold a 2011/12 color? If so, maybe that's what i'm thinking of. It was just a touch of yellow into the silver giving it a warm silver look. Very pale.

    IIRC White Gold is 2010 / 2011......Sometimes it looks silver, sometimes beige.
