There only testing the car - it wont be the finished article as i don't see huge rally style lights on the roof being the next big thing tbh.

Yep it does say R32 on it. Possibly because they don't want to promote the fact it is the new R36 as it is in development and them being spy shots and all.

More like the finished article is bound to be:

A lot of people are still dubious, as although the engine is in production and being used in the Passat in the NA market, there are major doubts about it fitting in the engine bay due to it's design and the way it is mounted.

I dread to think of the price tag of the R36 for the UK market !!

The Ed.30 Gti is producing 290bhp from just a remap of it's KO4 anyway.

I'm liking that front end

And this means R32's are going to be getting lots cheaper

Here's hoping!!!

I've said to a few people on her that im waiting for the price to drop when the R36 comes out.

I quite like the wheels on the spy shots, polished up they would look cool

Last time I saw that front bumper it was on a Nova

They might be getting 290bhp from a GTI, but I doubt it's got anywhere near as much torque as a V6.

I like that, it something different anyway. I like it in white, wonder what other colours it will come in.

I should imagine the R32 Blue will be one of them
