Mk6GTI - 18"?? ACC??

[Corey_R]

So then... what about ACC on the Golf R when you're optioning the 19's ?! Hehehe. I'm sure even a small diff in the 'comfort setting' will be welcome on the roads

You might have a point there.

Id like to hope the "R" comes with ACC already, as with the R32 a lot of the optional bits of the GTI were standard fit.

Personally i didnt bother with it, Ive had cars with manually adjustable shocks before which is i guess a distant relative, and found even though i could (with a screwdriver) after about 3 weeks tinkering i never touched them again.

I was thinking the same too Steve.. that the R20 should have many of the options standard from the GTI.

ACC is certainly at least one I would expect.

Park Assist would obviously be something still left optional.

[Corey_R]

I totally doubt that the R will have ACC as standard. It certainly has in no other country. Obviously the more they add as standard, the more they'd have to increase the price etc.

As for Park Assist. I don't believe that will be an option on the R. At least it hasn't appeared as option for the R anywhere else that I can find yet. You can have front/rear parking sensors though.

[elisiX]

Fair call.

I'd still like to see 1 or 2 of the options on the GTI standard.

[Corey_R]

Well, there usually always is.
Metallic Paint
Leather
Bi-Xenons
18" Wheels

There's $7200 of options right there. Who knows if the Golf R will include these like with the R32 and what else we'll get, if anything.

Does the new R have optional leather? Some cloth mix as standard?



You have to think that VW will do everything it can to get it under the LCT threshold

[Corey_R]

I think that they'll do the same as they did for the R32 with the Golf R.
Although the R32 was available in many other countries with cloth, it was in Australia with leather as standard. I hope that'll be the same.
Btw.... on 'RRP' prices, there is no R32 which is under the LCT. Even the 3 dr manual, which is $55,490 has a few hundred of LCT by the time you've added the dealer delivery in etc.

[G-rig]

LCT isn't that much to worry about as long as you don't go too much over $57k. I think i paid about $200 as it was a bit over.

Hopefully xenons and leather would be standard.
