Hmm, if it is true this means it will be a good competitor to the Golf GTI. So many hot-hatches around the $40 000 mark.

Not for me.

Is this the Fisher Price interior one ?

No thanks. Not a fan. GTI FTW.

To be honest, i was thinking the same thing.
Sure it is probably going to be a decent car but they have just ticked every "driver aid" box they could find.
Most of those things aren't required of a hot hatch.

not for me,pass

hmmm... yet these are the options GOlf GTI buyers choose or are standard on a Golf GTI. Even available or standard on a RS250 or FT86

The problem i have is that they include them and thus inflate the price to match.
You will find that the only included extra that is standard on the GTI from that list is the tyre pressure monitoring from memory.

They now just chuck in a whole bunch of stuff that you don't need to make it a more impressive package.
I.e. auto lights/dimming mirror/wipers are all possible for the driver to do in 2 seconds maximum.
keyless entry doesn't actually make the car any more driveable than having a standard key.
dual zone climate control and bi-xenons are just additional features over what you already get on a standard car which is obviously good enough or it wouldn't be able to pass ADR's.
