Mk7 Golf R Discussion Thread

What the heck, projector housings for fog lights?
I thought they were doing away with those and going for the LED strip on all the higher end models.

The Half-cut angel eyes are a bit odd too, the audi style lights are better imho.

All xenon golf 7's have that angel eye look.


Looks like the R could've done with a bit more though, the LED DRLs on the old one let you know what it was

The rear looks a bit plain in those last shots

This appears to be the R-Line (which is a normal Golf with fancy trim, etc) but does drop hints as to what the actual R should look like

Wow.. one of the great sleepers just got sleepier.

Will definitely need to tick rising blue/black wheels if you want others to know it's an R.

R-line by the looks of it. Looks too subtle/weak to be the R.

Thats the R-line dude, it's been out for a while. But it does show some of the design cues that the R will have.

I dont believe this is an R. Looks like a Gti someone has paint shopped. Why does it only have twin tail pipes on the left? And it looks too low for an oem car even the R isnt that low in stock form.
