Great pics 

I want one now!  Have to wait 2 years  :cry:  by then I'll have been in golf gti's for 10 years so time for an upgrade.

Never been sold on blue cars before but the R in blue is  :drool:  Even my 'no interest in cars' other half had to admit it was stunning.

Looking good  :cool:

I've held off from the Mk7 GTI GTD to see the R and decide if that's the car for me for a couple of years.

Wonder when we'll be able to see one over here?

I love the 19s on the white version and those are the two colours to fight for. Was the white the standard or Onyx?

I am almost certainly going to order an R ,my GTI due soon is a short term purchase ,mind originally R order books
were due to open in November ,but heard a rumour VW UK hadn't committed to the R specs etc ,Recaros awaiting
type approval and the GTI/GTD backlog might make them hold off on the R till feb with deliveries Mid Year , Quite
a bit of Interest and spec moaning already over on the golf R forum . Allow 6 months + for high spec .
Some German Info http://www.volkswagen-r.de/#!home   have a play  :smiley: :smiley:
My favorite picture from the Site .

I was watching some YouTube clips of the new R.
It appears to have front indicator LED.
Does the GTI have these?
