Wolfsburg Edition Golf R

Re the tail pipes:

That sounds better than the previous version ( I don't like fakes). Got any links to pics showing details ? I tried a few google searches but couldn't find anything useful.

If you jump on the UK Golf R forum you will find some punters there (actually it's here for me at the mo as I'm on holiday in sunny Belfast) have already had 7.5 Golf R wagons/estates/variants delivered and have reported that the tail pipes are all functional. Wagon is louder than hatch as wagon doesn't have flaps.

Yeah, I spoke with my dealer about it today and they agreed VW will probably allow it as an option on the regular R's when the Wolfies prod run ends.

I really like the Pretorias and would love the Dynaudio but I don't think I'm going to wait. The Speilburgs have grown on me and I don't hate the 'standard' audio system.

Do you think that if they do allow the dynaudio eventually on the standard R then you may eventually be able to purchase it from the spare parts section and get it installed by authorised installer?

Hi Guys

Working on a few dealers for a 7.5 R Wolf hatch - no options - just Blue and DSG in Victoria

Hoping some of you might share what you paid on road with me via PM

So far $66K is best but that sucks.

Tks

NSW I paid full price - wouldn't budge. $69k wolf wagon with roof. They're having a laugh.

You should tell if you got corporate or fleet discount too, it would help people.

No corporate or fleet discount for me - I could probably push 2% for being a CA.

Anyone manage to get corporate pricing at all on the R's? I'm definitely entitled but have been told from a few dealers that the performance models have been excluded from corporate pricing.

Private for me no leasing or corp

Was the same in 2014 with initial release of MK7R they wouldn't do corporate pricing initially. I initially ordered GTI PP as they would do corporate on that but 3 months into order (car due in couple weeks) I contacted dealer and asked re corp pricing on the R and they agreed so I swapped my order. (was about 4k difference)

Got a link for that forum ? I spent a while on google without finding it (I did find out that there are an awful lot of Golf forums around, many of questionable quality/utility).

Look under Golf 7R owners thread for the few early adopters with 7.5 estates.

Thanks for that, the last photo in the first post of this thread clearly shows 4 real (non-fake) exhaust tips on the R wagon (estate).

I'm looking forward to collecting mine, but I'll have to wait a bit longer (but not as long as some).

Anyone hear info if you were waiting for the 8 August to be told more?
