VW Golf GTI Turbo X edition
« on: 01 June 2011, 12:37 »
Remember Mr. Ã…kesson and the GTI Porsche Edition?
Ã…kesson is now up to a new facelift, this time the inspiration comes from SAAB and the Turbo X model  :laugh:

Actually, the result in not that bad  :rolleyes:

It's not quite as fugly as the Porshce bumper. You've got to take your hat (and straight jacket) off to the guy.
I really don't like the Porsche wheels on the mk6 though. Do Saab make any nicer looking rims?


In fact the actual styling features of the lower part of the bumper (the SAAB bit) are quite similar to the new family face VW bumpers on some of the recently facelifted cars.

He certainly knows what he is doing, and that is a talent in itself. Dont like the result compared to the stanard GTI, but then again, the GTI is stunning on its own.
