VW Enthusiasts Will Love These Custom Cars

May 18, 2016

VW Enthusiasts, rejoice! Volkswagen has released five exclusive custom cars to appeal to its wide fan base that has been following the car brand for decades. Volkswagen has created five custom cars including a Golf 1.8T, a Golf GTI, a Golf R, a Jetta GLI, and a Passat, which will be attending enthusiast events throughout the summer and fall season.

Golf 1.8T: Sporting a classic Bali Green paint job, the Golf 1.8T takes inspiration from the original MK1 Volkswagen Rabbit. It also adds a roof-mounted bike rack, a black stripe, gold 19-inch BBS Super RS wheels, and yellow-tinted headlights to round off this retro look.

Golf GTI: The Golf GTI rocks a purple exterior that is part Jeep Wrangler Backcountry and part Prince, with a gold stripe that matches its gold wheels, while a matching roof-mounted carrier box sits on top.

Golf R: The Golf R, which is inspired by the Scirocco GT Black Edition, has H&R coil-overs like the previous two vehicles, which cut its ride height. It also has a matte black roof and 19-inch black VW Zubehör wheels.

Jetta GLI: The GLI stands out from the pack because of its performance emphasis, whereas the rest of the custom cars are all about style. This vehicle was designed to perform on the track and on the road, with 18-inch Neuspeed RSe52 Wheels and BFGoodrich g-Force Rival tires.

Passat: The Passat is as low to the ground as possible, sporting 20-inch Vossen wheels and a Satin Ocean Shimmer paint job. Its trunk, which is covered with real wood flooring, houses the Boden Autohaus air suspension system.
