If this model ever makes it here, VW can make the Golf a full time 4 door – there will be no need to bring in the 2 door Golf. When is it coming to Australia?…

For those people that are confused, white car is the production one, other one is the proto.

They need to bring this car to Oz. I reckon it is magic, definitely better than a box on wheels GTI and R32.

I think a slightly more aggressive grill should be on the more powerful r line model with 4 motion and the more sedate grill on the 2wd lower powered model, just like Audi does. Speaking of Audi, i think it hints a little bit of Audi in its presence. Adding to that i think it even looks a little bit contemporary Japanesque, but mostly neo Germanic. I’d seriously buy one if i didn’t have any kids in a few years time. I think they should offer it in Lamborghini orange or the red shade on the Audi R12 concept, very über cool colours!

if the golf gti was an expensive golf, then this is an expensive golf gti.

like someone said, unless its about 5k aud more than the gti, then its not worth buying.

Duck – what grill don’t you like. Each picture has a different grill.
Me like but it has some fiat bravo styling cues to the rear side view. Nothing new. Nice interior.
What ever happened to the Corrado, a great car in its time.

I Like it.. Infact I was just thinking that this is what the front end of the new Subaru Impreza should have looked like as the sweep of the headlights is almost the same.

having said that I would have preferred it if they made it look more like the IROC concept car.. yet I guess The Mitsubishi Evo / Ralliart RS beat em to it

Looks nearly as good as a BRERA.

It works as a package but it does remind me of the American cars produced during the 90s (Ford Contour), very curvy front.

I think it looks awesome. I think any of the traditional VW design cues would have looked odd. It works as a package. How many they sell depends on the pricing. I should only be 4 or 5 thousand more than the equilivent engine in the Golf. I think a ‘Scirocco GTI’ at about 45k would be fantastic.

Overall it is a very nice looking car. Apart from that ugly grille, it looks very unvolkswagen.

^^With you there 100% Golf.
I wasn’t totally convinced by the Iroc grill but it was unique. The front is now bland and at first glance reminded me of the Toyota Paseo!
Personally I think VW should have tried a retro of the MK1.
The original was absolutely stunning when it launched mid 70’s

Looks a very sweet car to me and it will be a good seller for sure. Definitely sleeker than anything VW have in their range at the moment.
