The task of turning a VW Golf VI GTI into a driving sound machine and making it look excessively great at the same time is probably not for everyone. The company CFC StylingStation, Neuss has gladly taken up this challenge. The result is worth a few words of admiration.

It takes a good portion of courage as well as confidence to opt for the kind of presentation seen on the newest generation Golf GTI " it is a matte, metallic silver coloured coating (1.500 Euro). The result, however, only reaffirms what experts from CFC knew all along.

With the right clothing, the rest of the cars sporty yet robust appearance is now on the agenda. An ap-X (749 Euro) screw thread that can be adjusted according to height and hardness has been incorporated into the car especially for this purpose. There is an exhaust system by Eisenmann (1.238 Euro), complete with stainless steel finish and two 100er tail pipes (1.000 Euro) and a down pipe by MR CarDesign. The 265 HP performance and the maximum torque of 390 Nm (799 Euro) can be attributed to XBM Tuning. The GTI now stands on ASA GT2 wheels, which are 8x19 inches in size and soled with rubber tyres in 225/35 R19 (1.999 Euro).

MK-SoundStyle " a company, which also calls Neuss home " is responsible for the Car HiFi Entertainment System. The radio DEX-P99RS (999 Euro) comes from Pioneer. Four output stages from Pioneer (PRS-D2000SPL) power the Pioneer Subwoofer (TS-W8102SPL) in Master/Slave Mode.

The fully active front system was assembled with speakers from Rainbow: High speakers CAL 27 SILK VOF, Midrange Speakers 100 Vanadium, Woofer 165 Vanadium Phase Plug. These are powered by two output stages (iPaul 4 300).

All high end cables are from the AIVs product line and the spare batteries bear the name Stinger.

In conclusion: Renewed confirmation of the old saying “No risk, no gain!
