Saw those wheels on a Audi A3 yesterday at a dearlership, i thought they might use them on the new GTI, didn't look to good in the flesh, well not as good as the monza's.

given autoexpress are involved in these pictures i am a little sceptical, not a fan of lower grill and think side profile looks weak and monzas

Looks like it's official folks.

Here it is in Paris! http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/paris-motor-show-2012/paris-motor-show-volkswagen-golf-gti


What's with the red stripe continuing into the headlamps? Looks a bit odd to me. Other than that it looks like a very mild evolution of the MK6. Nothing too drastic!

I like the shape and poise - looks more angular and has hints of the Scirroco in it - particularly with the crease in the boot - makes it look less slab like.

Agree re the red stripes in the headlamps - not so sure at the moment. Is that an indicator or badge on the front wing by the A-pillar?

I like the alloys as well  :smiley:

If I get time, I'm popping down to my dealers tonight so will see if I can get some more information from them on timings/prices/options....

"Carbon Edition" has been mooted with Ali floor and bulheads plus CF bonnet and roof dropping the weight to 1100KG. Now that'll be a) expensive and b) awesome!

It's a GTi badge.

Not sure on the red line through the headlights either.

I really like it! I'm not sure about the wheels but i'll wait till i see it in the flesh, i bet we won't get that blue as an option though!?   :angry:

I quite like the red line in the lights tbh, it's a bit different. It looks like they've been raiding the Audi parts bin though, they are a lot like Audi seats. :huh:
