Sadly, as expected, no GTD.

Thanks for the price link,
 
I did a quick comparision of the 4 door Golf Gasser (no options) and the 4 door TDI (no options)
  
The gasser $19,890
The TDI $24,660
 
a whopping $4770 difference.
 
are we having fun yet?

The TDI does have equipment that's not on the base 2.5 though, including better audio system and alloys. But... $4770? Are diesel engines that much more expensive to make?

TDI vs GTI by jbaustian

There is no stripped-down model of the Golf TDI being offered currently. The standard features are not much different than the GTI, which is about $23,500 when configured closest to the Golf TDI. So a GTI with premium sound and 17" wheels is about $1500 more than the Golf.
 
Remember, what it costs to own a TDI is always about fuel economy and depreciation, and not about purchase price.
 
Maybe there will be a stripped-down version of the Golf TDI sometime next year, with 15" steel wheels, basic sound system, and no sunroof. Then look for a price around $19,500 or a few hundred more.

2010 Golf TDI pricing
 
Apologize for the incorrect link earlier, and thanks for providing the correct link. I'm on TDY and my internet connection was terminating soon.
 
Golf TDI is highly contented compared to past Golf TDI trims. Still, it is priced at a substantial premium and I expect the cost of entry to be a problem for non diesel and non VW fans.

Still 10% off an A3 by anowlan

Fully loaded, this is 10% less than the base price of an A3.
This car remains highly appealing at it's price point, and I'd be surprised if it
didn't sell like hotcakes

I've heard absolutely no word of a GTD coming to America. None. Each magazine has clearly stated that America will not get the GTD. Years from now? Who knows - that goes for any car. But for now? No GTD and whoever is making the claim that we are getting it will have to give some facts on that one. That's the one I want but will gladly settle for the standard TDI Golf. An $800 chip will give you practically the same performance as the GTD.

I wonder what the difference in suspension will be on the Golf we get in the US, to the much praised Golf GTD being tested all over the World? The extra 30 HP is not as important to me as the handling and braking. I am also hoping they come with the seats that the GTI has.
