Do we really believe the GTI will be in the line up come the launch of the MK6?  It took a full year before the GTI appeared as a MK5.  Mind you I wouldn't mind, there should then be plenty of decent second hand MK5s for me to take my pick of on the market!

Didn't see the price, but that is only about £10 - you'd pay that in the NEC carpark before entry in the UK (when the Motorshow was at the NEC :cry:)

waiting for the gti-r

Same here. And its going to be remapped  :smug:

And the point of GTI-R? There is already S3. New GTI-R will cost like R32 and the diff to S3 will be covered by the brand name and a better build quality of S3 (VW improves, but Audi does not stay on place either).
