I'd have one.

Sound's like 12th June may be the official launch date of the R.

where did you get that from? is it firm?

It's on my birthday! It's a Sign!!!!

I've had it confirmed by a local dealer although it sounds like all cars coming in are pre-sold as i was told no stock until Sept/Oct.

I still haven't been able to find anything official from VW Aust so i'm still a bit skeptical.

the new Golf GTD is being released soon aswell!

basically a diesel GTI

loves it!!

That is exactly what I got told by VW Aust. I have not bothered to try over east yet as im still looking at tuning options etc.

Good to know though.
