Maybe it's only the Euro-spec Golf R getting the 7speed for 2018..? That would match the Euro-spec 2017 S3.

Golf R in Europe is getting 310 HP and 7-speed dsg. It's already out; they just call it "Der neue Golf R".

So um, where does the rev limiter kick in exactly? On the 3.0 v6?

Does it hurt the car to rev to 5 rpm when starting from a stop and then taking foot off clutch?
