Not overly bothered if honest as like the chrome tips and exhaust note be fine for me regardless
Think my TCR will be MY20 but not expecting anything significant. Interested to hear what the updates are though.
Again in terms of akrapovich not actually overly bothered be quite happy with the stock
Sir, would you like a £3k lightweight exhaust fitting for minimal or no extra cost? Not that bothered?! Yeah right
That’s a massive thing for the TCR as they ditched the option of the Akrapovic exhaust and it will make the TCR sound better. Looks really good as well compared to stock chrome tips.
Fingers crossed for guys with orders on as would be seriously gutted to miss out on that. Be interesting to see what else they chuck at the GTI/TCR/R for MY20. Also shows we aren’t seeing a performance Mk8 anytime soon!
Obviously been aware of the Akrapovich exhaust for a while many on VWROC forum has then optioned on their R when performance pack became available and though I very much get it I also have never craved it or felt missing out and so even at say £500 I would not have selected it - however if it was a true freebie and given it’s actual cost obviously be delighted to have it - but do stick to thought that if it did not turn up with it I would not be overly bothered in same way do not look at any R that see with one fitted - so do not confuse my statement with not understanding its qualities and value it’s just in general do not have a huge feeling for must have
If it’s a no cost standard add then they must have excess stock they want to rid as they could easily lift the two performance packs in price to recover some monies though maybe conscious of the £40k threshold in how many they would shift if broke that barrier?
Be interesting to see what else is included and removed remember, as not much left on option list really - I only added the climate, Reifnitz and 90% tints - think there is an upgraded lane assist, memory seats and pro nav, dynaudio left?
Also when is MY20 builds? Mine due October so September build?
