My mates got a nicely tuned Rallye, RAPID cars, has dyno'd 212hp and is a match for DC5's etc no problem 
. If they weren't such a killer on insurance I'd 100% have a 6 for my daily....
Will dig out some pics of his, sure he's on the gti6 forum too.
Love yours dude, best colour & wheels IMO

Yeah, I gave mine some TCL, spent the best part of the day cleaning it, havent got a machine polished so i have to use man power! I clayed it (dont think it had ever been done before, so that was fun) polished it, Glazed it and then gave it a few coats of wax, the result is the pictures above
They say they are a rare colour, i have seen one round my way, claiming to be 200bhp that is for sale, i never seen another one on the road untill i got my one
I had this before i got the Gti
So i know what its like to keep clean
I was tempted to go back to cyclones on the gti, but i decided i like the white wheels to much, the way it sits on the 17's is just perfect imo!

They're not cheap to mod to be fair but seriously worth it, doesn't make fast car numbers but deals with a lot of them...
