Firstly, hi everybody - this is my first post!

I am due to order my 2017 Leon FR anytime now. All I need to do is finally decide on colour. Have you guys got any pics of a monsoon grey parked next a technic grey?

From the looks of things, Monsoon Grey appears to be more matte, unless the pics aren't actually representing the correct colours. If you have any pics of Monsoon v Technic, please throw them here.

Technic Grey looks too brown to me, I've got a 5-door hatch in Monsoon Grey and it looks excellent, really suits the car.

I know it isn't a comparison, but here's
My monsoon grey. I like the colour because it's subtle and smart

Monsoon isn't matt, but it's not a 'stand out' choice. I'm still dead pleased I went with it.

Thanks a lot guys for your input. I saw the same Leon about three times driving around my town in Grey and in-person it looked so damn good! I'm confident it was Monsoon Grey now by looking at your pics. All your cars looks so nice and classy in Monsoon!

Have we got anyone with Technic Grey?

Also, can you please confirm this is Monsoon Grey in the vid? - youtube.com/watch?v=aCF0KER8mFo

Here's my monsoon, FR Titanium not cupra but I think it really brings out the body lines more and gives it a much more sporty stance over colours like red or blue(opinion no offence intended) I agree technic is slightly brown, monsoon is a metallic colour I don't think it looks matte at all

I want the SC too. Have you got any more pics of this beauty?

The Monsoon definitely wins.

Technic grey doesn't look great in sc form. I've got the 5dr and it suits it well

You won't be disappointed! I never get bored of the appearance and the power is more than enough
