There is no difference aside from the paint colour! I’ve no idea why it’s called out like that in the configurator and clearly VW don’t know either. It’s just another configurator oddity.

Six months is typical for a GTI tbh (except during covid or during the start of the Ukraine war).

Options can slow it down, but often no difference.

So if anyone were to order one now with the performance package they won’t get the black forged alloys and need to choose a different set? Or keep the original red finish ones? Definitely sounds like they are low on stock , they should stop them alloys from being aloud on the clubsports and R till the ED50 is out, being a special edition and wanting it launched in may/june

Well, I can tell you that I ordered the stock model, no optionals, mainly because I wanted to minimise the risk of delays. I guess I should've added a thing or two, given where we are now.

Hi
I ordered a Clubsport with Warmenau Diamond Cut wheels, pan roof and Oryx white in September and it was originally quoted as due into dealer early February. As yet I still don’t even have a build date confirmation. Dealer claims the delay is due to the wheels being unavailable? Not sure I actually believe that though. Had an email from dealer yesterday apologising for the delay but unable to even predict when the car may materialise?

I read another post recently about there being supply issues with Warmenau alloys (sorry, can’t remember which forum i read it on), so maybe your dealer’s being truthful.

Has anyone else been contacted regarding anything needing changed?

Spoke to my dealership again this morning, I was told that they have spoken to the VW Sales office and that there is no way to have the Warmenau black wheels with the PP. Looks like they have updated the configurator now to reflect this.

Suppose I missed out and they have stock issues, so will be going with the Estoril instead.

Yes, a clubsport. With pretty much every option except pan roof and head up display. I’ve been told my delay is due to the number of options I specified. However I’m not so sure. I can certainly see a scenario where they have pushed the ED50’s ahead of other orders.
