The Worthersee is just around the corner, so it's not surprising that weird and wonderful Golf GTIs are being shown. This one is a collaboration between the PP Performance tuning shop and Cam Shaft wrapping, creatively titled "7 Down".
The formula for the lemony flavored 7 Up soft drink was discovered in 1929 and was originally called Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda because it contained lithium citrate. Mmm, yummy!
So why is this car called 7 Down? Because it's a lowrider, of course. The Golf GTI's already sporty stance has been reduced even further by using air suspension from null-bar. After that, a set of weirdly shaped Vossen alloy wheels was added.
Of course, this being a PP Performance GTI, some engine mods were undoubtedly made. However, the precise power increase has not been divulged, maybe so as not to scare off the drag racing competition. Previous projects from the same company have resulted in increases from 230 hp up to about 280 HP using only Stage 1 mapping technology that costs €799.
Of course, the project wouldn't make any sense without the help of Cam Shaft, who created the wrap theme to match the name of the GTI. It's effervescent to say the least!
The Golf 7 GTI has been around since 2013. It is powered by a new generation of 2-liter TSI turbo that delivers either 220 PS or 230 PS, depending on the model. The moderate power increase is accompanied by a substantial torque boost to 350 Nm (258 lb-ft). The fastest version of this front-wheel-drive hatch takes 6.4 seconds to reach 100 km/h.
