The Legend lives on!
Volkswagen is and always will be proud of their GTI -- and with reason. The Beetle may have put the people's car on the map, but the GTI brought the brand to everyone's lips.

Unfortunately, VW has not deemed us worthy to receive this special edition of the famed GTI. It is understandable, in a way, as we haven't reached the 30th year of the GTI in North America yet...

One way or another, we will get to drive this 235 PS 2.0TSI GTI. Well, specifically, Matt St-Pierre will. And not just anywhere, either. Stay tuned to Auto123.com for more.

In the meantime, watch this introductory video on the car. It depicts a lovely woman shifting through gears while wearing stilettos. Although Matt refuses to try on the shoes, he will gladly reach for 200 km/h in 4th gear before swapping in the 5th. He hasn't decided on the lipstick shade as of yet...
