I have just been through the German konfigurator and see no mention of rear spoilers. Though I do not speak German. So maybe it is just a mistake in the UK configurator. For example LED headlight used to be an option, but then they realised that they were standard on the car :rolleyes:

The 7 speed DSG should be available in the next few weeks on the GTI Performance.

Try using the German site to look at the colours. I think they look a little better and there is an option to see the car from lots of angles. However, nothing beats seeing the colours in the flesh. Though some of the recent photos come close.

The front and rear spolier options are a mistake.... those are options from non-performance models...

.... but look closely at the German configurator .....

You can get LOTS of additional colours (unless I'm reading it wrong ...). The additional cost is high - over 2000 euros. 
12 different blues, 3 reds, 4 greens etc. etc.

The standard colours are on Page 1, but look at pages 2-4 .......

Yeah but why isn't it standard on the GTI like it is with every car in the range if you pick DSG.

Because it's a good way to upsell an expensive option?

7 speed dsg is not on the gti at all atm which has put me off getting mine, plus having to pay for paint and fitting for the spoilers plus  760 at build time.....

the spoilers are an add on in the config but it doesn't include paint or fitting. these are done by the retailer(at extra cost). it's meant to give them a sportier look etc. personally i'd have the front as i'm not to keen how the front looks, as for the back i'm not sure tbh....

Past = 2006 MK5 GTI - Tornado Red and Solid Black

Which is a bit like the VW version of Audi individual colour range. I would like to see a 'Renault Sport' yellow.
