In the modicum that is the enthusiast world, you'd be hard pressed to find someone that would forgo it.
Just like the FN2, wing be damned, I'd drive it. BUT, I think it looks better in other colors besides white this time around :o

Driven it. Love it. I would buy this over STI and Golf R any day due it its pure rawness yet refined touch. The other competitors do not offer such beastly performance.
Its stupid fast. I agree with one review saying it might be TOO extreme for a normal road car. Yet, its powered understeer is...

Used this for a ton of logging for my technical write ups. Now that I don't have the car I have no use for it.

Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen, its been a little while since I've posted.
So currently, I'm having the issue of the constant fan running during Key ON, Accessory, and Key Off situations. Now my first inclination was "Crap, I need a new ECU" but being that I have a 2008.5 MKV GTI, Never once has...

Dear GolfMKV/MK6/MK7 Forum(s),
Over the past 8 years I've immersed myself into a very diverse group of enthusiasts. From low riders, to stockers, to sleepers, to racecars...I've seen it all in the VAG aftermarket. I've had some struggling debates, I've had some nice conversations regarding...
Hyper hatches often pay for their initial investment within the first year of sales. If they are targeting 5K I bet they'll achieve it. Anything over is bonus profit.
Not to mention, the initial investment has already been laid due to the common platform. Exclusive suspension parts and engine...

I had an old 2.3L Duratec 5speed XLT Reg can. That thing was a beast with 3.73 stock gears on the 7.5" axle. Nothing special, but it got 28mpg driving like hell.
I put almost 150K on that thing with zero problems except a wheel bearing.
