Edition 35 posibilities
neg:
OK, so say VW do release a 'Edition 35' model and lets say the chances are they will put the K04 unit on it, with say 235hp - its got to be less that the R but more than the standard GTI and after the 1hp for every year for the Edition 30 lets say they continue with this trate.
So pricing - cheaper than the R but more than the GTI so lets say £26-27k basic.
What would peoples thouths be on this ?
no real reason for this, just a thought I had the other day as people slate the price of the R but then looking at some of the GTI price its not like these are cheap - anyway, thats waht 'random chat' is there for eh
Oh, one last thing - when would a Ed35 be due out if they do release one?

Late 2011 to 2012 I'd have thought? So proper end of line before the MKVII.
They hinted at an R26.R style track weapon at Worthersea. Really hard to make a call on this one, as the R has never been so GTI-ish as it is now.
SteveP:
There is another version of the TFSI lump listed on ETKA (as well as some GTI "Edition" parts, for example the R LED tails are now listed for Golf R and GTI "Edition").
So I think it's on it's way very soon :happy2:

i reckon if there is one it won be the gti, it will be on the R models. and id bet it' be 300Hp to compete with the focus RS figures. cant imagine it being a stripped out R26R style one though, as it goes against the golf ethos really.
SteveP:
The two versions of the engine are 199KW (265BHP) which we know is the Golf R and the new version is 188KW (250BHP).
Its follows the pattern of the Mk5 GTI to Edition 30 progression and keeping the GTI just under the power output of the R.
