Paris Preview: GTI photos are out

Just a few days before the Paris Motor Show, shots of the Mk. VI GTI hits the web. It's an evolutionary design to the current GTI looking tighter, leaner, and sharper. The front end is even more aggressive with the wide airdam and foglights off to the sides. The signature GTI red line on the grille that returned on the current Mk. V GTI after a long hiatus continues for the 6th iteration. Around back, the GTI gets R32-like treatment with tailpipes off to the sides.

Under the hood will be a 207 hp TFSI engine and the GTI will come equipped with an electronic limited-slip differential and the Scirocco's adaptive chassis. DSG should be the gearbox of choice though a manual will probably be offered as well. We should know more in a few days time.

More photos after the jump.
