Top spot for external looks to my eyes for Performance Golfs is the GTD in Carbon Grey with the beautiful 18" Nogaro wheels. 
Weirdly enough this is my second favourite, after the lapiz blue R with Prets.
I do prefer the look of the GTD wheels and non red pin stripe over the GTI.
Agree. Really not a fan of the the red stripe through the headlights, it just doesn't work IMO, thought it might have grown on me by now, but no? I hope that is a casualty when they design the MK8. Carbon Grey always classy though.
My least favourite would have to be a Red R with the crude looking Cadiz.......
...sorry, couldn't resist
