The hothatch game has moved on in recent years. The new Golf R, with its 270 PS engine used to be enough car for anybody back when it was launched, but even the Megane RS is capable to match that, and things are more heated at the top.
Getting straight to the point, German tuner Cam Shaft have targeted the Golf R’s 2-liter TFSI engine and boosted it from 270 PS and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque to 325 PS and 430 Nm (317 lb-ft) of torque.

The mechanical package is completed by a new braking system from Tarox, replacing the stock one, and a sports suspension setup courtesy of H&R. These two pieces tie together nicely with a set of Ultraleggera wheels from OZ.

The body of the Golf also got a theme from Cam Shaft “Electrified”, a spinoff from the name of the color which is called “Electric Orange”. The whole thing is one awesome foil wrap like nobody but Cam Shaft can pull off.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
