The Pirelli GTI that is rumoured for Australia has been released in the UK and the colours its available in are only silver, black and graphite blue.

The Yellow ones were only for Continental Europe

And it's got painted plastic bits!
THAT'S a good idea!!

I have to say, I'm not terribly impressed. It's less additional power than you can get with a retune, and you have to put up with that interior...

This is effectively an EDITION 30, yeah?
Add on your standard bluefin tune and you're looking at close to 290bhp.
Standard bluefin on standard GTI = close to 240bhp
Impressive enough for me

I'm undecided on the interior.
Is there going to be a significant price leap in these?

I have a mate who works at a VW Dealership - he has confirmed that the Pirelli won't be coming to AUS!!!

I was ready to put my deposit down for a black one

personally i think the interior is horrible but wheels are great.

As per Uomo, this is news from 11/4/08 and there has been no mention or rumor that they will be coming to Aus.
