Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    From the article ...

    "The new model will be called the Scirocco R20 and it’s expected to make its debut alongside a Golf-based variant at this month’s Nurburgring 24 hour endurance race. "

    AND

    "Both the Scirocco and Golf R20 models are expected to deliver 270hp (201kW) and be fitted with a six-speed manual and AWD"

    mmmmmmmm .....

      I read in one of the German sites which stated one Golf R may not have 4Motion but use the XDS system in the GTI.

        Yes, I heard that there was to be a model between the AWD R20 Golf and the GTI in the near future. It's supposedly meant to make 177kw and be FWD. Chief VW GTI engineer aparently hinted at it in an interview. (in which he also hinted at the AWD R20)

        R20 still 99% likely to be AWD. If its not I'm cancelling my order .......

                    Officially revealed!
                    Boasting 198kw and 350Nm. 0-100 in in 6.5 for the manual, and 6.4 for the DSG seems a bit conservative i think, especially since they're practically the same as the R32 (6.3 for the DSG though). FWD though

                          Yeah the front is THAT sexy. The back is a bit weird though. It suits the car, but it's not nearly as mean as the front is

                          That said....I'd still own one without thinking twice. God you'd have to be a complete and utter MORON not to have one of those!!

                            perhaps maybe minus the driver that is pictured..

                              Ugghh I want that car soo bad. We won't get it, we never get the cool cars. We'll probably end up with a TDi replacement Golf that 0-100 9.9secs and gets 5l/100km.

                              FUN!
