Description

The G60 was available as a number of special editions. The Edition One (which was also available in 8v and 16v versions) which was available in Dark Burgundy Pearl Effect (also known as Aubergine), Pearl Grey or Brilliant Black Metallic. It featured; a sticker on the bonnet, "Wolfsburg Edition" plaques replacing the side repeaters, color coded mirrors, wider arch trims (on the G60) BBS RM012 two piece split rim wheels, 1/2 tint rear lenses, white front lenses, black VW roundel on the front, black VW roundel on the back, leather gear knob and steering wheel, and a one-off Interior In blue, with matching carpet, door cards, and seats (electric Recaro's on the G60). The 3 door models also featured Chromalux glass, on the rear 3 windows which was darker, and had a Siglachrome coating lending It an almost mirror-like finish.
The Fire and Ice G60 was offered again across a wide range of engines, including a 1800cc Turbo Diesel and of course the G60, and had been created by VW in honor of the 1990 film "Fire, Ice and Dynamite" which starred Roger Moore and Simon Shepherd. Overall the car was similar looking to the standard GTI but was painted a unique shade of "Dark Violet Pearl" and adorned with suitably garish pink and purple decals to the C pillars. However, it wasn't until you got into the Fire and Ice that the real impact was to be had, the interior was a mix of Blue and Purple upholstery, with huge embroidered logos on the backrest of each seat, certainly an acquired taste.
The final limited edition variant of the FWD G60 was the Edition Blue, only available as a G60 in Austria and Switzerland (the domestic market only got the PF code engine) the Edition Blue as the name suggests was Blue in colour (Moonlight Blue Pearl Effect) with matching leather interior, it also featured wider G60 arch trims, BBS RM012 2 piece split rim wheels, the GTI side plaques were replaced with "Edition Blue" plaques, color coded mirrors, 1/2 tint rear lenses, a 3 spoke leather trimmed steering wheel, and leather handbrake and gear knob.
Here we have a superb very low kilometers 2 owner Austrian example. Beautifully presented in all black delivery. A highly desirable collectors piece and exceptionally well maintained.
