The model isn't due to be released on the market until Spring 2009. Technically the new GTI hasn't changed much, possibly to stop the model from stepping on the toes of the new Scirocco, the engine gets a power boost of 10bhp taking total output to 207bhp whilst emissions are down by 11g/km. The improved figures were achieved with a new induction system and for the first time on a GTI, Volkswagen have introduced its new electronic limited-slip differential which they call XDS.

Looks like more of a facelift than anything else. I wonder how the LSD will effect front wheel drive???

its an electronics lsd, so it will be controlled by applying brakes to the slipping wheel. will probably make the car a little slower, but easier to drive for non-experienced drivers...

i do like the painted bumpers... and way more room for a nice fat front mount with that grill :difus_banana
