Want to stand out? Pick up this Golf R, the only one like it in the United States <\/h2>\n

When Volkswagen<\/a> sent off the seventh-generation Golf R, it did so with style. For the final production year (2019), the automaker offered what it dubbed (pun intended) Spektrum color options. For $2,500, customers could pick from a catalog of 40 special and unique colors spanning the entire palette, including subdued greys, radical reds, and gorgeous greens. With only 4,223 examples of the Golf R \u2014 and only 199 Spektrum cars \u2014 delivered in 2019, there are likely several actual \u201cone-of-one\u201d cars out there. Now\u2019s your chance to own one.<\/p>\n

Special paint is just the beginning<\/h2>\n

While on the surface it may look like just a red Golf R, Spektrum cars were a lot more than that. The special paint meant these cars got pulled from the regular production line and painted by hand in Wolfsburg, Germany. While the program\u2019s origin technically lies with the Canadian-market e-Golf, US-based VW fans have enthusiast and VW Spektrum Product Manager Megan Closset to thank for the US Golf R Spektrum. And, indeed, each customer who took delivery of a Spektrum Golf R in the US received a little postcard from Closset, which included a paint chip, R badge, and even a handwritten and personalized note on the inside.<\/p>\n
