It looks like a panda , But surely any custom paint shop can do this design.

Since when do turner-jobs qualify as new factory models?

err when they're obviously factory sanctioned. in this case it looks like the distributors are doing this rather than wolfsburg.

The Golf V GT and GTI are definitely the best looking Golfs since the Golf II, I'd take it over a bland & dull Golf VI.

interesting to see they "re-used" the golf 5 "pirelli edition" wheels with the obvious pirelli tyres. wonder if it has the sexy pirelli interior seats :D

Gti and V50 cost the same. I'm in Singapore. But main diff I gripe abt is that the V50 is manual. There's no DSG option.

Would have looked better with smoked / black mirror indicator covers (at bottom of mirror housing, now clear in colour).... little details to complete the package! Nice you get all of this in waranty. I'm having to wait until mine is over - Milltek and Revo / APR will be an option if the money's there. 5.6 secs - impressive. Focus RS is to do 5.9secs... wonder if the 5.6 is accurate - 1.7 secs faster than stock (manual) due to stage 1 & exhaust? Not sure about that claim.
