Does this look like the GTI-R?
« on: 25 September 2008, 08:27 »
I found this pic on a german site, and it looks quite good, except now we have seen the Xennons on the GTi mk6 I'm not sure its a good picture of the GTI-R.

What do you reckon?

I think it is safe to say that the .:R GTi will look like a bloated version of the MK6 GTI. I.E the .:R edition will look like the W12 concept as pictured above. VW would be stupid not to make it that way.

People loved the W12  :smiley:

I reckon it will look something liek that. A toned down W12.
