Golf GTI Edition 35

[MiiLos]

As a friend said to me, he really likes the golf as a car, he just wishes they made one for men.

I think its really sad that most men are so insecure that they need to assert themselves through the products they purchase. But then we live in a sad world I guess.

Nice VW Aus marketing lady to AUSmotive, "The GTI 35 edition will be in Australia later this year. We do not have a confirmed date as yet."

Apparently carsales has previously suggested September as an arrival date.

The standard MK6 GTI had the same 0 to 100 figures as the MKV GTI, so it's not that odd.
But it's great that the 35 has the Pirelli/R/S3 motor

Didn't VW claim 0-100 in 7.2 man /6.9 DSG for the MkV but 6.9 man & DSG for the MkVI? It doesn't make sense to me that the manual could improve but not the DSG.

Certainly looks the goods. R motor w/ R bits (tails).

It'll be a shame to have the lag + fwd though.

At least in my regular StageII GTI it's only the FWD I have to battle with.

There should be minimal lag with a Stg 1 tune and probably none with Stg II.

Very true.

Push button start.......i want.

So keyless go/start isn't even an option on the 2012 in Australia? Bummer.
