What colour did you get/order?
We were going to pay extra for metallic grey but then our dealer showed us a Moonstone Grey that had just arrived for another customer. We changed our mind immediately because of the good contrast with the black detailing, and this was reinforced when he showd us one with the metallic grey which has hardly any contrast with the black at all. Easiest 600 odd quid I've ever saved.

It was between the standard Moonstone, or white for me.
Always liked the VAG flat grey, so it was an easy choice once you factor in the extra cost for any other colour.

I saw only two 'colours', Stonewashed Blue and Makena Turquoise - we chose the latter.

My present Ford is a similar colour to the Turquoise. And what a pig it is to keep clean. It shows the muck and grime when the weather forecast only hints at light drizzle.Raxacorico wrote: βSun Aug 29, 2021 10:35 am I saw only two 'colours', Stonewashed Blue and Makena Turquoise - we chose the latter.

The dealer only had 2 in stock, white or moonstone so there was no competition for me prefer moonstone and it was cheaper, also have the white dash which is not everyone's cup of tea but I like it

Strangely, I don't find that's the case with mine ...Scratch wrote: βSun Aug 29, 2021 10:46 amMy present Ford is a similar colour to the Turquoise. And what a pig it is to keep clean.

There were only two colours we could even contemplate from the available palette : glacier white or manganese grey. We went with the grey
(Note - I offer no value judgement to people with different colours here - except possibly to prove that other people are braver and more interesting than I am )

I was very pleased moonstone grey was the default/budget option. Itβs the colour Iβd have chosen.
Though Iβd say VW have been very conservative/dull with the available colours!! Wonder why - thereβs plenty of options in the VW palette across the range.
Perhaps saving it for a paid software upgrade option

Stonewash Blue seems to be the rarest of all, based on photos I see posted in forums and Facebook groups, plus Iβve yet to see one out on the road.
Mine is Moonstone Grey, I think the car looks best in Glacier White though.

How strange. We have loads of ID.3's round here (perhaps I'm noticing them more now I have one on order? ) and the vast majority are metallic blue or white.

Our dealer had all the colours available to look at ato be honest we werenβt impressed with any of them. In the end we chose stonewashed blue as the one we could live with. This is the colour I wish they had available.

Far too many grey cars on the road. My wife wanted turquoise but we didn't want to wait four months to get it. There was a stonewashed blue available immediately ex stock and we actually preferred it when we saw it. (Don't tell my wife I said so, but it looks quite like grey.)
