VW Golf: Earlier start of next generation confirmed?

We already reported about the rumored earlier-than-expected start of the next generation VW Golf, including a pic how it might look like.
Over the weekend several German newspapers have written about something what could be the confirmation of this plan.
It's said that the next generation of the VW Golf will already arrive in 2008, not as planned in 2009, due to the high production costs of the current VW Golf.

We are still not 100% sure that it's true, but as usual you can read it here first.

Here is a Google-translated version of the article.
