a 'GTI Excessive'...... errr, eh?

Diffuser that glows red?

not got the power for the look, should of done what Porsche did and totally strip it out, would make sense with the look and power then, if had more and was stripped out, id have one!

It really does need to shed a boatload of weight to compete with the Megane R26R, then it would be interesting - it's just a jazzed up Golf at the moment

looks a lot nicer than the normal mk6 imo, i think its the black arches and sideskirts that do it

Nasty. The black arch extensions and side skirts make it look like a soft roader.

I love the wide black arches, sort of a G60 throwback. Agreeing with other's comments on the power, it needs to be pushing 260 or so to pull of that look. That said, it's only a few mods away depending on the engine.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3
