Volkswagen Australia has just shared this image of a Mk7 Golf GTI to its Facebook page with the words, “Look at what’s just arrived!”
So we assume you’ll be able to set your eyes on the all-new GTI yourself in the next few weeks. We’re expecting pricing to be around the $40K mark and very much hope we see the “Performance” version offered for sale in Australia.
UPDATE: Thanks to Jim for sending in the pic below, showing a Mk7 Golf GTI on Sydney’s roads.

Looks like Xenon headlights are an option… us Aussies are getting ripped off again!
So much for the red line through the headlight.
wait.. isn’t that a polo GTI front end?
Adrian is right. It would appear xenons are not standard in Australia, and it’s with the bi-xenons that the red line continues on from the grille.
mark, see above. 😉
Doesn’t even look like LED tail lights!!
Xenons are standard in Europe for the Mk7. WTF is going here? Is VW Australia the only importer who does the opposite to most others who give us a hamburger with the lot on their hot hatch offerings.’
You would think with the decline in sales recently and bad press on reliability VW have copped here they would be doing their level best to offer better value for their products here.
I mean come on, if you start adding extras (which should be standard) like Xenons, GPS, quality stereo, USB integration, BT, etc etc etc you’ll end up with a $60K GTI. Come on VW Australia get with the program.
