    Yeah it sounds OK inside. But knowing that it's a sympozer annoys me.
    Have you heard a Fiat 500 Abarth? Amazing sounds coming out of that little hatch.

    I've heard both sides of the argument, I've always done break in on my cars by the book and never had any issues.

    Or a CLA/GLA45. Awesome exhaust noises, pops, intake noises, compressor surge noises without needing fake speaker sounds. Sounds bad-ass/obnoxious/annoy the neighbors from the outside too.

    My brother's GTI sounds pretty insane from outside when he launches it. Sounds like it's going to explode I guess DSG shifts are love it or hate it.

    Gents,
    Ordering up 2018s, I have almost 30 colors to choose from so if anyone is considering one for early fall and wants to spec one out I don't mind ordering one in the color you want.

    Do they have decent color patches/brochures for the custom colors? The greens especially are vague.
    That's not sweat. It's your fat, crying.

    Big +1 for Ryan @ Gary Moe.

    Unfortunately the Golf R didn't quite work out for me, but he was great to deal with. Replies very quickly to emails and doesn't waste your time. He also beat Calgary dealers by a pretty big margin when it came to price.

    If anyone is looking to autocross/track their golf R/Performance pack GTI.

    I have a set of Track pads i am selling for cheap. They were only on the car for 200km and i never ended up tracking on them. These cost me ~$700 i will let them go for cheap!

    I also have tires i am selling for factory wheels for track/autocross. https://forums.beyond.ca/threads/404...48#post4680748

    Another for Ryan @ Gary Moe

    Picked up my R a couple weeks ago from Ryan. Great experience, Ryan was easy to talk to and gave me a good “Beyond” deal. The paperwork was signed before the car arrived but Ryan had no problem shipping the car to Calgary right to my door.

    Will the Golf R Performance package be coming to Canada? Don't like the look of those Spielberg alloy wheels on the 2018's

    So don't pay the extra 250 bucks, and get the Pretoria 19s standard. I can't imagine the exhaust will come as it's probably 3-4K.

    Nope that is European only and I can only imagine how much that Akrapovic exhaust would cost from VW. As Khyron said the Pretoria wheels are standard if you don't like the optional wheels.

    Anyone coded their car to “increased traction mode”?

    Nope. I feel you would have to be tracking that car to even notice and since mine is a daily driver it's kind of pointless.
