Not sure if they are sold out or not. Dynaudio might be an option on the my18 golfs, as its an option on every other golf, and probably just a ploy to sell the wolfys. Suppose it comes down to how much you like the wheels, the pretorias are a very expensive option but can be had for 1.5 - 2k 2nd hand. If you aren't in a hurry you could probably get an R mid 2018 for 55k.

Dynaudio, carbon look leather seats, carbon mirror caps, pretoria wheels limited badging 300 hatches 300 wagons. Can be had for between 61 and 65k drive away.

According to http://www.motoring.com.au/2018-volk...leased-107369/

The Wolfsburg differentiates itself from the regular Golf R with grey metallic 19-inch alloy wheels, carbon fibre wing mirrors, ‘carbon’ Nappa leather-appointed upholstery, a 400W sound system, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, blind spot monitoring with rear-cross traffic alert and dynamic light assist.

Some of these are available on a the regular R as extra cost options, others are (for now) exclusive to Wolfsburgs.

Yeah, I spoke with my dealer about it today and they agreed VW will probably allow it as an option on the regular R's when the Wolfies prod run ends.

I really like the Pretorias and would love the Dynaudio but I don't think I'm going to wait. The Speilburgs have grown on me and I don't hate the 'standard' audio system.

The Dynaudio alone is a worthy addition had it on my MK6 sold it to my brother and missed it when I bought my last R, any wonder there's a scramble for Wolfsburgs. I think it will become an option on regular Rs

just looking at the 7.5 R improvements over the 7 R

400W Dynaudio with SubW
7 Speed DSG (good for cruising listening to the Dynaudio) between the spirited driving
Media with colour screen VW connect for Smartphone control
Active display instrument console
Electric drivers seat
Electric mirrors
LED headlights with cornering function
Lane assist
Pedestrian aware city brake
New body kit better looking front grill
Slight power increase
Active turning rear LEDs

Probably forgot something others can add, pretty much at the same price as the 7 R a bargain.

I can't think of another car with this performance and equipment for the price. The only negative if your using it as a daily driver and your in the city expect around 10L / 100 Km extra urban country expect 7-8L / 100 Km so 1-2 L/100 Km more than a GTI

Re the tail pipes:

That sounds better than the previous version ( I don't like fakes). Got any links to pics showing details ? I tried a few google searches but couldn't find anything useful.

If you jump on the UK Golf R forum you will find some punters there (actually it's here for me at the mo as I'm on holiday in sunny Belfast) have already had 7.5 Golf R wagons/estates/variants delivered and have reported that the tail pipes are all functional. Wagon is louder than hatch as wagon doesn't have flaps.

Do you think that if they do allow the dynaudio eventually on the standard R then you may eventually be able to purchase it from the spare parts section and get it installed by authorised installer?

Hi Guys

Working on a few dealers for a 7.5 R Wolf hatch - no options - just Blue and DSG in Victoria

Hoping some of you might share what you paid on road with me via PM

So far $66K is best but that sucks.

Tks

NSW I paid full price - wouldn't budge. $69k wolf wagon with roof. They're having a laugh.
