Nope, S&S is an electronic exhaust noise - external.

Not to be confused with the soundaktor all of the GTI/GTD/R's have, which is internal only.

Surely sport and sound is only an audible difference in the cabin?

Gotta say i listened to those vids and didn't hear a great difference...i think its a placebo

Nah not placebo. If you heard it for real you'd know.  :cool:

Absolutely not. I need to switch mine off sport when leaving in the morning as it is far too loud for that time.

Really? I knew the Mk6 GTD had one but didn't think the Mk7 did as standard. Never really noticed in mine

You've really never noticed? Drop it into sport mode and give it some welly - trust me the snarls you can get are not derv in origin!

S & S is an extra - but well worth it - best thing on my 65 plate after owning a 63 plate for 2 years where this was not available at initial order.  Sound outside is awesome and people have commented they like the sound of my GTI - quite surprised when I remind them of what the badge says - GTD!!!! :smiley: :smiley:

Hi, I took delivery of a brand new GTD in June. I bought mine through "CARWOW" and saved £3000 (10.4%).
Delivery is through a VW franchise and was faultless. Go to their web site for full details. It really is as good as advertised.   
Ps - Sport and Sound pack is a must. You get a sports exhaust with one silencer removed, a speaker inside the exhaust which emits a lovely burble and red brake callipers. The speaker only works in sport mode.
You will love it.
