VW GOLF "CARBON GTI" IN 2014???
« on: 15 November 2013, 10:21 »
This news item initially came out in September 2012 and since then no other info.

Does anybody have any input on a 200kg light weight "CARBON GTI" version
coming out in 2014 to celebrate the VW GOLf 40 year anniversary (1974-2014)??

Thanks for reading.

Hi,

I doubt this will happen on this generation of Golf due to factory re-tooling and cost.
it was the GTi's 35th Anniversary on 2011 so I would say it would be 2015/16 before we see the next Anniversary edition.

The 40th anniversary, 1974-2014, is in reference to the VW Golf not the GTI!

But then again VW reveals the anniversary editions at that exact point...
Misread that. You're right. '74 for the Golf '76 for the GTI.
