The front looks great!
The rear is quite boring actually.

Engine specs? Is it the promised 211 hp?

I like it too, wheels from the Jetta GLI and all.

re: Official: Golf GTI "Concept" Mk.VI

Oh dear... oh dear oh dear!

What's going on? My first impressions aren't good. First of all, they could have darned well made more of an effort to put some new wheels on this "all new" GTI. I don't like those blingy ninja star numbers. Should have been a more sophisticated 5 spoke unit.

The red striping in the front grill is sentimental rubbish. It happened to work nicely in the shield-grill format of the Mk V but these two parallel lines are garish and cheesy.

The rest of the car looks lovely; great front bumber treatment, tasty side sills and nice rear bumper diffuser and exhaust placement. Shape-wise it looks the business - sadly it's let down by some seemingly rushed and ill-resolved detailing (red striping and wheels).

That was my 1st impression too; i could ignore red stripes, but c'mon...! The same wheels like Mk. V???

Interior looks great as well as front and rear bumper treatment. And it's amazing what xenons can do to a car...

Overall it's great and if i was in market for it, the rims would definitely have to go.

What I can do without is funky patterns on the cloth seats.

Lol, true... It looks like it's from some basic, trendline model...
