I'm sure they offer it as an optional extra for all the models so all the dieselmaniacs can get the 1.9TDI with this body kit. Posers will love it! As for the VR6, I think it's useless now, VW has smaller turbo engines that can pump out 250 and weigh less. Nice body kit!

My only engine issue was a water pump that needed to be changed under warranty (integrated into the crankcase). Compared to today's engines, the power isn't quite up to par for the displacement but it remains as smooth as ever. Although I liked my VW, I didn't buy another because of the horrible and indifferent service. As a former VR6 owner, I’d agree that the VR6 was a great engine.

How about the turbo 5-cylinder like they are talking about for the TT-RS so that we can get it in the neighborhood of 400hp like the BMW 135/335 engine!
