                    I would have a hard time swallowing the 45k price tag on a normal .:R, let alone what one of these is gonna cost. Very cool, and I love the mk7 styling in this case.. just not sure if I would pay TTRS money for a Golf.

                      There is a ton of room between a $45K R and an $80K TTRS to sell a $55-60K Golf R400. Besides... the CLA 45 AMG which is already priced in the $60 to $70K range needs a competitor... doesn't it?

                      Personally... no matter what happens... I'm stoked! The BMW M2, Audi RS3 and Golf R400 are all on my radar right now... as for the CLA AMG... well... I think it's fugly.

                          x2, plus this car has more power than a base TTRS (although not the same tuning potential). However I think this will be a very limited car in a select few markets and probably end up more as a collector piece than anything.

                            This car is for the people who were going to buy a MK7 R and drop 10k-20k of mods on it. Not only is it already insane power but it has a custom sick design. What more could you ask?

                              Volkswagen chief of R&D Heinz-Jakob Neusser declared recently the Golf R 400 production version "could make more than 400 horsepower."

                              Last month at the Beijing Motor Show in China we saw Volkswagen's rather radical Golf R 400, a concept which based on a recent report will see the light of production day. There's actually more to this story as Volkswagen's head of research and development Heinz-Jakob Neusser said this week at the Vienna engine symposium in Austria the range-topping Golf "could make more than 400 horsepower."

                              The company's supervisory board chief Ferdinand Piech and VW CEO Martin Winterkorn participated at the symposium so needless to say Neusser was very serious when he made the statement. This means the current flagship Golf R will be dethroned by a super Golf pumping out more than the concept's 400 PS (294 kW) and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft).

                              The uprated 4-cylinder, 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine will work most likely with a 6-speed DSG transmission and a 4MOTION all-wheel drive system. Volkswagen said the concept can do 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 3.9 seconds and an electronically-capped top speed of 174 mph (280 km/h) but the production car could be even faster than that as a result of the added power.
