The GTI is an attractive hot hatch to begin with, but this version's wider fenders and big wing look perfect for the track. We would love to see a limited run of production examples that are this wild. Power comes from theGolf R's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, but the tuning here pushes the output to 326 horsepower and 302 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed sequential gearbox sends the muscle to the front wheels. The car costs 110,000 euros ($124,000 at current exchange rates) before applicable taxes. If that seems high, keep in mind quicker GT3 class racers like the McLaren 650S GT3 are the equivalent of $560,000 or the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 for $427,000.
