Why does this look weird? Are the rims too small!??

Not my cup of tea.....looks too boxy for liking.

[seangti]

They nailed the proportions so well on the last model that the newest seems a little inbred.

A swift vs Polo....yeah no...

208 GTI Peugot...maybe if they fix their reliability problems, electrical gremlins and such...

It will be the Hyundai Veloster that upsets the Polo GTI sales this year.

Its 170 kgs heavier than the GTI at 103kw...no competition against the Polo GTI mate.

What about the Veloster Turbo? 150kW and 265Nm.

Also the normal Veloster Manual is 1230Kg and the Auto is 1265Kg, with the Polo GTI being 1189Kg the difference in weight is 41-76Kg.

Take a look at Hyundai Aus, they aren't offering the Turbo only the Veloster and Veloster +

Thats because it isn't out yet anywhere. Its coming 'Late 2012' and Hyundai Aus have confirmed they're bringing it here. Mind you with the FS + model with Auto asking for $29K w/o on-roads, Im thinking the Turbo would be at least 5K more

With its Wheel base and width...it seems more likely a Golf Challenger...not the Polo.

The real Polo threat is the Fiesta ST.



If this comes out, i may jump off the VW wagon...
