It's available to order for the S, SE, GT and R-Line at the moment but no sign of it in the price brochure for the R or R estate.

It was announced to us on the 2nd of March that we can place orders with the factory and the configurator and price lists will be updated in due course.

Is that the same colour?

Yeah

Yeah

Dam seen that on a Beetle and it was  and I don't mean in young people's type of sick.

It looks like a Golf R as we expect from certain angles such the back with the quad exhaust, but the side with the black side skirt looks more like a lesser model as the sides of the car do not look as deep.  The front looks pretty good but unsure if it is any better visually than the current Golf R front, which I feel I may prefer as a personal opinion.

The facelift comes with an Akrapovic exhaust. Interesting.

If that's true it will sound bloody awesome but I'd be very surprised

Well it says in the video so I guess it's true.

Brave choice for someone to make... a yellow Golf.

Yellow can look nice. Not the same yellow as the new colour but I think it looks nice

Damn wish I had that choice of colour when I was looking for my Gti would have had a match lol  my other toy as well as the wife's scirocco

It looks like it's an option in the German brochure but not confirmed for the UK yet. Would be brilliant but very costly I'd imagine
