i'm planning to lease a gti for 24 months toward the end of august just before my lease on my infiniti g35 m6 coupe expires. i sat in that orange special edition and loved the leather sports seats, but the dealer didnt have a standard gti with leather in stock. are the seats the same as in the special edition?

Gti07Md · 05-24-2007, 08:03 PM

indeed they are...but the orange one might say "farenheight"....but leather type is same

thanks....one more quickie are the wheels with the round cut outs the standard that come with the car. i want and need 17" with the wider tread, all season tires because of where i live.

Those wheels with the "cut outs" are the 18" Hufesin sp?

These are NOT standard, standard wheels are 17" spoked.

can you the 18 inch with the cut outs with all season tires from the vw dealer at areasonable cost, or is it just worth staying with the standatd 17". i'm only leasing for 24 months.

I say stick with the spoked 17" rims. It's gonna be easier and cheaper to find an all season tire for the 17" inch wheels. I have 18" huffs I don't really like them and I had to pay $850 for a set of Eagle F1 all season tires!!!

Dumb question, but...why the hell do you want to lease again?
