VW Golf GTI Pirelli Edition: Almost confirmed for Australia

According to our source it looks like the VW Golf GTI Pirelli Edition is coming to Australia.

The Volkswagen Golf GTI Pirelli edition which debuted at the international GTI Meeting at Wörthersee, Austria last May is due to arrive in Australian dealerships on or shortly after the 2008 Australian International Motor Show in October.

According to our unconfirmed sources, the Golf GTI Pirelli, which is powered by a tweaked version of the standard 2.0-litre TFSI engine to produce 169 kW (up from 147 kW) and 300 Nm (up from 280 Nm), will arrive in Australia under a strictly limited supply of just 300 units.
