I'm not a fan of the parelli but....Ouch some harsh comments for the blokes pride n joy!!

From seeing a pirreli in the flesh i wasn't convinced but i like what you have done to yours.

The carbon front and black badges have given me food for thought as i didnt think carbon would work on black, yours has changed my opinion.

I wouldnt get CHs, id keep the Pirrelis and get them diamond cut with anthracite inserts (if you know what i mean)

Nice mate really nice

Very nice.

Not 100% sure on the numberplate.

I think the Pirreli alloys are better than the Pescara's 

Monza II's FTW however.

I even like the seats!  I prefer red stitching to the yellow though....

But all in all I'd happily swap!

yeh i do prefer the monzas but obv weren't an option and theres no point me buying a set aftermarket given its a special edition. I'll get some BBS CHs in black at some point!

I like the pirelli alloys as they are.

I also think the Pirelli will hold its value much better a few years down the line than the ed30 (and the normal gti obviously) as its much more exclusive

Its not just exclusivity that holds a cars value but demand. It wont have a high enough demand as it wasnt better than the ED30, so came out without anyone really noticing. Im sure it will hold better than the standard gti, but i cant see it being worth as much as the ED30 of the mk5 or the Anni of the mk4.

At the end of the day he loves his car so our opinions dont mean sh!t. Im allowed to dislike it and he could hate my R32, ill still be grinning like a retard while i drive it about though

Interesting comments here.

The Mk 5 GTI is without a doubt the best GTI ever built and both the Ed30 and Pirelli variants have been produced to enhance the marque and raise extra revenue for VW.

Some like and some don't. I personally don't like the Pirelli and wonder why VW ever released it in the UK market (money methinks and maybe the individual has been sacked given the current economic climate). I don't covet the Ed30 either, but if i had the choice, I'd go for a R32 without question.

Not everbody would choose this option but it's a democracy and we're all different, with individual budgets and opinions. Who's to say the Pirelli won't become a collectors item in the future but then again...............................................................

Wasnt the Pirelli released after someone caught on to the fact that they had over sold the ED30???

Seemed like a simple name/cosmetic change to avoid looking stupid

[RandomJord]

Its nice man. Good shots an its a nice car, i like the random bits on a pirrelli (stitching an that) and the wheels are distinctive, meaning its quite easy to distinguish from a GTi or a ED30.

As far as resale an demand go, who gives a sh!t, drive it!

But it is rather exclusive, they didnt sell many corrado storms, no one wanted or could afford them then, i think this car might be the same

I think it looks mint  I wasn;t a fan of the number plate when you first did it but seeing a lot more pics I actually think it works ok.

Awesome pics too.

Great Pics mate, enjoy your car, it looks cool.

There's a bit o history behind the Pirelli as well isn't there?  I know there wasn't a pirelli version of the mk4 but there were of other mk's?
