VOLKSWAGEN MK8.5 GTI / GOLF R FULL REVEAL

New Leaks of the MK8 GTI and GOLF R have been released all over the place and we can finally see the full car without any camouflage and I definitely think it looks pretty good other than the massive tablet in the middle of the dash ! What are your thoughts?

i have a respawn office chair thats extremely comfortable

[@dadarkknight88]

You were right about the front light bar being too much...but i just dont like the fact that at night you can see there is a dark spot in the middle 🫤

I think there will be Golf 50 Years but not a GTI derivative of it. I think the US market will probably miss that part of the 8.5 launch.

I use the Noho Chair for my office. It adjusts if I lean forward or backward. I recommend it.

I’ll definitely have to look into it!

I wonder how much of the new interior can be swapped over easily... I don't really have as much of a problem with the infotainment system as some do, but I'd love to have the larger screen.

I honestly have no idea but it would also depend on how plug n play the wiring setup would be and it looks to be a different software I’d be interested to see if our cars would boot it up !

Thank you for the support I definitely appreciate it along with all the other comments it’s a great little community! I’m glad you enjoy my content I’ll make it as long as I can!

Hey i have the same car as you..but the gray one...probly mid year im gonna start to modify it so i was wondering what kind of tune you recommend looking into that isnt too aggressive if there is such a thing. I've never done a tune before so i dont know too much about them..all the modifications ive done before are intakes and exhaust and not even the full exhaust just the back end of it 😅

[@dadarkknight88]

Hey do you think we will be able to use that light up front badge on the 2023 mk8??

[@octane_media]

If the upper grille assembly/ light bar is one piece and one connector I’m sure it could work . Alternatively you could add 12v switched power to it , it probably fits perfectly on the current generation cars!
