VWvortex has exclusive first photos of the forthcoming 20th Anniversary GTI in Imola Yellow. Volkswagen dealers last week publicly announced upcoming availability of a special North American 20th Anniversary GTI model to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the GTI model in the United States.

This model that we've hinted at in our forums for months now will be loosely based mechanically on the German 25th Anniversary GTI and GTI 337 model sold here in North America. A base GTI GLS 180hp 1.8T is the starting point to which the following significant changes are added:

• all-new 6-speed MQ350/O2M350 transmission
• Same upgraded brakes as the 337 (12.3 inch front rotors, 10 inch rear vented rotors, better pads, red powder-coated calipers)
• Same suspension as the 337 (uprated springs and shocks, increased sway bar diameters, and revised bushings in the rear)
• 18' R32 Wheels with ultra high-performance rubber (likely Michelin Pilot Sports)
• Same body kit as the GTI 337
• Same Recaro seats as the 337 but interior theme will be silver/grey and black instead of the red/black in the 337
• Blacked out headlamp interior surrounds similar to the German market 25th AE GTI
• New instrument cluster with aluminum trim bezels from the German market 25th AE GTI
• Black headliner
• A few additional aluminum trim pieces (around HVAC controls)
• 4,200 units total between the U.S. and Canada
• Cars will be numbered via a dash plaque
• Retro rabbit badge along with red 'retro' GTI logos front and rear
• Sunroof will be standard

Colors will be very special too and never before offered on the Golf IV GTI in North America: Jazz Blue, Imola Yellow and Black Magic Pearl.

According to dealer reports, the 20th Anniversary GTI MSRP will be $23,225 in the U.S. and $34,150 in Canada. The only option on the car will be Electronic Stability Program (ESP) for $280. Monsoon sound system will be standard.

We can expect to see the 20th Anniversary GTI introduced at the Chicago Auto Show in February and available in dealers around the second week of May 2003.

The 20th AE GTI to be nearly identical in driving feel to the German 25th Anniversary GTI and GTI 337 which is to say significantly improved over the existing GTI. You can read our driving impressions of the German 25th Anniversary GTI here.

Meanwhile, if you are interested in this car your best bet is to head to your local dealer and put a deposit down - particularly if you want a Blue or Yellow one. Jazz Blue and Imola Yellow models will be about 25% of production each with Black Magic Pearl making up the remaining 50%. Volkswagen will be producing 4,200 20th Anniversary GTI models with 200 going to Canada and the remaining 4,000 to be sold in the U.S.

Ενω το λεον και Α3 ειχαν αυτο τον κινητηρα απο το 99-00.
