Title: Hot or not.......
Post by: TagnuT on 29 June 2010, 22:10: I like the power, some of the graphics. Not a great fan of the wheels though....

Post by: JulesS3 on 29 June 2010, 22:25: Looks awful and not much power? Seeing as its an S3 engine they would have simply put a filter, a free flowing exhaust and mapped it for that. 370+ is easy so odd they didnt bother?

Post by: PenguinGTI on 30 June 2010, 00:37: Wonder where they got the inspiration for an even hotter more track focused hot hatch variant and colour scheme :huh: :laugh:

I think the red is a tad garish but the GTI.:R style graphics are pretty nice... although I liked the carbon on black application on the GTI.:R more than the black on silver.

For me a car like that is all about being 'Q'... which this is not.

Be great to drive though... :tongue:

Post by: ErikGTI on 30 June 2010, 10:11: ABT should really stick to engine modifications.....they did top notch on my car :cool:

They are incredibly poor designers...I have never ever seen a proper ABT sporty look...

This car :shocked: looks like it has just run over a pasture with cows..... :sick:

Post by: lowdown on 02 July 2010, 23:11: Also, it's a poor photo. Background is distracting.

Not a lover of "pimped" Golfs full stop. The whole idea of tarting up one of the purest forms of the art of the car is wrong.

Similar to middle aged ladies who try to look "hip" by wearing alternative dress they just end up looking like drag queens! :shocked:

Post by: ErikGTI on 03 July 2010, 08:00: .......everytime I see un ugly Golf I automatically asume it is ABT....so sorry in this case "SportWheels" you've got the honour....or should I say the Rasberry Award :sick:
