Nice. Like the ambient lighting in the golf. Checked out a rline the other day, drl only light up on one wing each side. Hope that it won't be the case on the performance range. Saw one 7.5r all wrapped up in the caryard, probably just arrived a few days ago.

Hey Eyes24, do you by any chance notice if the drl light up on both wings each side?

I checked on Wednesday on the Golf R and both lit up in the showroom. I asked specifically because of the promo pictures only showing 1.

Awesome! Thanks for that info! Probably a feature added in the dynamic cornering light on DAP for performance range (as stipulated by username123 previously)? I tink this is not feature standard on the released golf range other than the alltrack premium.

I know the drl both light up in the alltrack premium models which i am happy about just 1 would have been lame

And to add to the list: dynamic turn indicators for the tail lights. Asked my dealer about the gti tail lights again and he said still no confirmation at this stage but there is a slim chance of getting premium led tail lights minus the dynamic turn indicators. Don't mind if this is the case though as compared to the normal ones.

Yeah i have the premium l.e.d tailights but am pushing the dealer for info on the dynamic ones still have not heard yet
looks like i will have to pick it up and get the dynamic lights fitted later might wait 6/12 mths and go aftermarket prob cost a lot less

Popped down to Syd City VW to take a look at new Golf. Impressed by the Golf R.
Salesman showed all the model breakdown and equipment and stock coming in.

INteresting was the reference to the GTI performance edition 1. Underneath were faded headings of Performance Edition 2 and 3. Salesman said as much... more special editions likely. Anyone ordering a Dark Iron Blue or Indium Grey GTI?

From GTI specs
LED headlights with dynamic cornering lights and tail lights. I assume that means LED headlights and LED Taillights

In addtion to the normal GTI
GTI Perf Ed1
Premium LED tail lights with dynamic indicators
R specs
Premium LED tail lights with dynamic indicators

Yes I was told by my dealer that there will be 3 editions. Probably the 1st will be the only 3 door edition. I ordered an indium grey gti, 5-door. Due sometime August.

The more I think about it the more I'm inclined to go for a spec up GTI rather than an R
