Tail lights are very MK4ish with the sharp corners towards the outside of the lights.

I like it, I might like the mk6 more still but won't know till I see one. I really think they need to put more power in them though!

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

I agree, knowing full well they CAN get the power out, why don't they just do it.

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

This looks pretty good I think, the red line through the lights is a bit weird though.

217HP stock or 227HP with the performance pack. They haven't bumped it up at all since the MK5 came out and now we're only getting 17 more HP? That's kinda disappointing. Either way, I won't be buying one. I think the front end would've looked good if they had kept the MK6 style stripe, but with it going through the headlight it just looks stupid IMO. As for the rear, I'm not too sure what it is about it that I don't like... I think it might just be too bland for my taste. I'd choose a MK7 Golf over the GTI for sure.

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

Anyone else feel this looks a lot like an A3? And actually, I like the stripe going through the headlights, still not a fan of the interior though.

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

I like the added sharp lines of the new model, which I think is very apparent on the back with the C pillar and tails, and those head on shots make it look pretty aggressive. I think what is going to happen is you will see more variations of the GTI and thus a range of power and options; GTI, GTI w/ performance pack, GTI Carbon (light weight) and R.

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

Red stripe might not make production for NA since this is still a concept.

up to 27 more hp, 50 more ft/lbs, 200 less lbs! real LSD option!! Everything points to this thing being a much much better performer than current GTI

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

At least it isn't a red LED strip.

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

Actually that would be very cool as a DRL...

Re: Golf VII GTI Concept

Having seen the car in person I think the red stripe will be in the production version, the car appears very production ready. The strip does mark the boundary between the headlight and the turn signal as it is in the area below the stripe. The rest of the headlights look amazing to me and I think it will just come down to how they look with certain colours of car. I do however think the LED tails are not nearly as nice as the MK6 versions.
