It seems that Golf R owners are really getting worried about the new super hothatches that are coming and are raising the stakes. After yesterday’s Cam Shaft masterpiece, yet another monster R has emerged. This time, it’s been tuned by a German company called ShwabenFolia, which judging by its name usually does wraps.
The 2-liter turbo engine under the bonnet of the car has been thoroughly tuned from 270 PS to a massive 330 PS. That’s about the same as the 2.5-liter engine of the Audi RS3. Who need more cylinders?!

Cosmetically, the Golf R benefits from a matte gunmetal grey wrap with red accents. Those cool wheels are 19-inch BBS alloys, painted red to match the body, and wrapped in 235/35-19 Dunlop sticky tires. The Germans have also dropped the car by a few millimeters by adding sport H&R suspension.

Our favorite part on the car has to be the custom Capristo exhaust system and the sticker above it – louder than your mom last night!

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.
