Happy 35th to the GTI!

AUSmotive.com » Volkswagen Golf GTI “Edition 35″

Tech data is a bit sparse at the minute, but power is up from 155kW to 173kW. More details coming at Wörthersee I expect.

I like the rims.. other than that... is it just stickers?

Just read your post, more power too!!

Nice.

This would be a great GTI to get into.

very nice, love the seats and the side skirts!

wheels are pretty unique also!

the more that I look at it, the more I notice - black mirror's also aka R spec.

Bottom set of wheels is ***** hot!
No new cosmetics though (i.e. Ed 30 lip on the mk5?)

I think thats just a tuning company who came up with a special edition version, not the 'official' VW version as seen above.

All the wheels are the same

Just the bottom picture is a close up

So considering with the MKV that the "GTI 30th Edition/GTI Pirelli" was only 169kw and had the TFSI K04 engine - what do we expect the engine to be in this one? Just the TSI with a difference ECU? Or actual hardware changes/differences?

Yeah - as Vaku mentioned, the black mirrors and the proper side-skirts are welcome additions. I love the seats too.

But what really makes that car look hot in those pictures, is the fact that it's a 3 door... lol
Expect it to look just as boring as most of the other GTI's in this country when it arrives here in 5 door spec only

Car Advice mention it has a revised rear bumper. But I don't see any diff? Is it revised, can anyone else see any diff?

Mind you, they also don't mention the side skirts and regularly make numerous mistakes in their articles...

I can't see a revised rear bumper either.
Although I didn't notice the side skirt was any different so there you go.
