Was talking with a buddy on a new scheme for a paint job. The Harlequin came up, and then Photoshop happened:



What do you think?

 

I'm all about being unique with your car but man...that is hideous!

 

I've seen it on a couple of VWs. I'm not a fan at all. If it really suits your personality though, go for it. You'll more than likely be the only one with it!

 

Yeah it was more of a joke and cool idea, but not something I'm really considering on doing.

 

I came from a background of vdubs before my Evo and I kinda think it works on the Evo lol

maybe grey-scale would look INSANE!

 

That's not a terrible idea, just don't match it to the body panels. Photoshop anyone?

Sorry, I don't want to hijack the thread.. or maybe this isnt... anyway

 

I'll mess around with that and post it up later

 

Idk how i feel about it. It would be cool if you used every color that came on the evo 8's and 9's.

 

Really? I don't think that would look good. How does GG & EB go together?

 

no.

 

not even close to looking good

 

HAHAHA there is a VW Golf in my area that looks like that. Hideous IMO

 

Time to learn you a thing or two about the Golf Harlequin
"Harlequin Edition
Harlequin Edition, Ginster yellow base color
Volkswagen originally created the Design series to tour at International Auto shows. Due to the huge public response of the original four Design series, 60 more were produced. Eventually, 264 were made and offered in 1996, exclusively in the North American market.

Based on the 1996 Golf GL platform, the Harlequin model included: limited edition Harlequin paint scheme, limited edition Harlequin sport cloth seats, and silver-faced gauges. They were offered with several different wheel options.

One of the rarest VWs ever produced, the Harlequins were produced by swapping the body panels of four different colored Golfs. They are usually designated by their base color (the color of the car with no body panels attached). The base color is not repeated on any of the other body parts.
