Card descriptions[]

  • Flash Flood Warning! You've got to wind through the narrow canyon roads around Mulholland Drive before the mud starts sliding. In your sleek Volkswagen Golf GTI, equipped with sport suspension and 17" alloy wheels, these slippery roads are easy streets for you.
    —From the 2010 Metro Rides card (R4963)

Trivia[]

  • The 2008 release of the casting in Orange is based on the Fahrenheit Edition of the Golf V GTI painted in Magma Orange with Fahrenheit badges. It was either produced with the Fahrenheit badge present underneath the right tail light or missing from the casting.
  • The 2017 release of the casting in Grey marks the first time since 2010 that it has been used in the mainline. It is unknown at this time if the casting will continue to be used.
