I prefer them pipes to the 'R' pipes to be honest. Personal opinion, but I prefer the ED35 over the R. The GTI just seems better thought out, the design is more subtle but just as striking.

The problem is the price  :shocked: and lack of AWD  :rolleyes:

Cabriolet versions of normal cars have never floated my boat, and who in their right mind would pay nearly £40k for a Golf of any derivative....crazy.

totally pointless car

roof chopped off and 100kg+ stiffening beams added and roof mechanism added so slower and handles worse and is noisier and you look like a knob.

its meant to be a performance car and they have gone to extremes to make it perform and look worse. whoever pays near £40k for this wants to give their head a shake

I agree with all the comments made this car is ridiculous, 8k more than the GTI cabrio  :shocked: If you wanted a faster Golf Cabrio (but why would you) then get the GTI and map it.

I would be looking at Porsche Boxsters for that kind of money and getting a proper sports car :cool:

Spare cabrio shells and many many engines left over...?? Anyone would think there is a brand new Golf coming...

This ^ about sums up the entire point of this marketing exercise.
