Dunno, but that is one great looking car.  I do like red GTIs.

It's not a GTI. The wheels look after-market to me.

You are right, it's not a GTI.  I still can't tell the difference.  :grin:

Audi RS something or other reps. There's loads of Chinese knock off's of 'em on the bay.
Lovely looking car/good photograph but shame he/she was pretentious enough not to take the GTI badge off when they bought the grill.

Photoshopped to the hilt or massive red lighting used to enhance the car as I've never seen red roads or a red park bench in my life.

Yeah, he should have taken the badge off and speaking on pretentious, who does that Stephen Hawking think he is talking with an American accent......

That's not a GTI badge on the car. It looks like they have just accentuated the light.

No, it's not a GTI. The guy obviously wanted a honeycomb grille so shoved a GTI one on there. My honeycomb grill is a PITA to clean and I may shove a base model one on it. If he can pretend to be a GTI I can pretend not to be.

You may have to lose the wheels and chop off a tailpipe as well. :grin:
