You guys (VoA) are killing me by not having this available in the USA.  But then I would not buy it new anyway and would have to wait for a cream puff low mileage used car to show up. But I digress.

why doesn’t my car run like that?
Yeah I totally get the realities of international business and federalization and importation and whatnot, but this one not coming stateside stings. It’s very much the spiritual successor to the GTI we all grew up with, and one of the most direct links to the golden age of hot hatches I’ve driven in the last decade.
With as much speed as we got out of our Mk7 GTI by plugging in a fancy dongle, I’m confident you could get GTI (or maybe even R) levels of speed out of the Polo.
I saw 3000 lbs and thought what? How heavy were the earlier versions and a series 2 (1981 – 1994) was 1625 to 1750 lbs. Cars have put on a lot of weight.
