What brakes do the 7R have?

.

Looking at the pricing between the current 7 GTI and 7R, wouldn't you be mad to buy the GTI... ..?

no as i think they will be superior to the superior R offering

i agree with you on the pricing front, been doing this exercise with the wife on a Pirelli replacement

This is similar to when I ordered the stock GTI and then the ED30 came out! Was most annoyed.

Will defo look at this when released  :happy2:

It really isn't mate... just a payment away... it's your full RE-Development that's the issue, lol!  But hey, what's car ownership without true involvement!? :happy2:

A dream car for me is a Porsche GT3 RS 4.0. A Golf R Evo is affordable on a decent PCP package.

Be honest - the thought of chopping in the M135i for the Evo R has crossed your mind this evening   :evilgrin:

Suprised they are not using the 2.5

Just seen an Audi Q3RS today £46k detuned dogs dinner, so that is 3 models so far that have the 2.5 engine

I would have thought they would look to fit it under more bonnets

It's about time vw done this ! They need to do it right though harnesses somber colours with red wheels etc just like a gt3

TBH despite the fact I really dislike a lot in the looks department both inside and out I'd consider one of these if they do it right priced at £33-35k it should be a good seller

I don't think it'll see production. They'll hardly sell any.
