Order dates either don't mean much or it depends on colour/option choice or even changes.
I changed colours twice and added more options but ordered before launch day, basically a few days after VWA provided the dealers with the 3 door order code but last update listed the car as being built wk40 which is tomorrow afternoon!
Add me to the list of no lifers/need to find a hobby hehe.... Current local times in selected cities
Note the LEDs around the headlights and the lack of active driving lights in the grill. Any ideas ? - MY11 feature / Aftermarket mod / Euro model.
Video was taken in the Czech Republic and the pulse effect is a result of the camera and not the actual lights.
Aftermarket lights....

Some points on this:
-I might struggle to pay $4k for an exaust. I mean, it's for a golf not a Porsche.
-the welds on the APR kit look good but not any better than HiTech
-tips look good
-lastly, what part of europe are the exhausts made in, Germany?
Not "HiTechs", Milltek. I've never personally used Milltek, but other forum members here have.
Also, this APR exhaust is not made in Germany. It was developed and manufactured by APR locally. No APR exhausts come from Germany. They come from the USA. This is why they're actually much cheaper than the Oettinger (and other Germany brands) because of free trade and better exchange rates and volumes from the USA. In addition, Porsche exhausts from APR are $7k to $10k :)
But please keep the conversion in Guy H's thread until we get all the details. It'll be easier for him and everyone else to ask their questions in the one place.
Those aftermarket lights on the Golf R look like the ones coming out on the new Polo GTI.

Tbh it's a golf r observation, it's not directed to GUY H though it's for golf R potential owner modders..Quote:

HiTech don't make exhaust systems for VW's, so not really sure why you're asking about them in a Golf R page. Also, you did ask specific questions about the APR exhaust...
...colour me confused :D
