To be honest guys, I don't think we will really know what the ACC is like until one of us actually gets to drive it. Don't forget that the ACC is all new on the MK7 platform (ACC MK2) and now has the ability to regulate the dampers individually (rather than across a single axle like the previous incarnation), so my guess is that it won't compare to the MK6 or Scirocco systems, but instead will feel totally different.

Judging by the reviews on the GTI, all seem to heavily praise the GTI's ride (and all seem to be fitted with ACC). Not one journalist I could see, has commented it's too hard or too soft, most have said, it's perfect !

I've just added this to my order. not sure if require it though.
I'm going for it more for improved handling but unsure if sport would be any better than the normal set up on the standard car?
Anyone got any thoughts?
I'm going to be adding bigger anti roll bars etc. and the money saved would go nicely towards some new bbs's :)

I've just added it to my order. It's the changeability that interests me. Comfort or normal or sport. if it turns out to be a waste then I don't order it again.

It's something I will be speccing on my next Golf just to try it.  Everyone's opinion is a bit different and so I really want to see for myself whether it's worth it to me or not.  I note some of the reviews have been very impressed with the ride and comfort.  :smiley:
