    Looks hot, but still not a fan of the rear tail lights though. This should be a cracker of a hatch when it's released.
    Current:
    2023 Mk2 Tiguan R - Lapiz Blue
    2015 Mk7 Golf R Wolfsburg - Limestone Grey: Stage 2
    Gone but not forgotten: 2008 Polo GTI Shadow Blue

    Finally, HID lights on a Polo with LED DRL's as well, looks kinda similar to these as well

    http://www.orange-tuning.de/shop/dec...e-p-17638.html

    Now there's a legit reason to get those lights

    But happy to keep the car for a few more years... performance is about the same - until they start to chip the new one anyway

    Very nice! Definitely going to consider trading in my current Pog for one of these and then head straight to APR afterwards! (Once there is a tune available).

    That looks bloody awesome!!!!!!!!
    Depending on price, I might look at one of these for the missus when they come out (and a weekender for me )

    It's only 6kgs lighter than the current one but that's with a much heavier gearbox. Having 7 gears would almost certainly mean that you will always be in peak power/torque.
    Cheers,

    John

    Despite all my reservations on the new polo's styling, I have to say that the Gti looks fantastic!

    Release date in Australia isn't till 2011 though is it?

    :edit: Just saw the end of the article stating they'll be on sale before the year's end. Might have to start saving the pennies...

    Just saw this Polo and I .... jizzed in my pants.

    Hard to tell from the pics, but if this thing has a better stance on the road than our current ones, then I'm sold --- oh and manual too. Yes, DSG is nice but I love my manuals.

    Time to start saving!

    Sunroof // ICT Tint // Seats // Steering wheel

    The rear 3 quarter view definately looks a lot chunkier to me.. wider track?

    I think I'm going to get something a little bigger next time, WRX/ S3/ Golf R maybe.. but I'll be keeping my polo for a few yrs yet. Looking forward to the bliss of a paid off car loan haha.

    all i can say is WOW. bang for your buck, this car will kick AS$. DSG...

    i don't know much about the chip...but getting it up to 150+kw will put it at the same power to weight ratio as the golf R.
