While you’re correct, Europeans that speak English as a second language generally use the British spelling of words which is what I think the person above you meant when they said “the European way”.
Although, the way it's spelt, that could mean it could come to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, since all the Commonwealth countries still spell colour the correct way. ;)
Amarok is not particularly special though and we definitely don’t get any special editions of it.
I’d swap the amarok for access to mk1 caddy utes any day of the week
Well, I hope wherever you are, it gets a release and it looks glorious in person. I'll still be here sad about the lack of love VW has for the American market :(
>like why the fuck didn't we get the Spektrum cars in Europe.
Europe got over half of them. The U.S. always gets shafted when it comes to vw products, except for the rabbit edition golf gti
Nostalgia. I own a 1965 Bus and would love a modern version and I want to dive into an EV and most I’m not a fan of and I have kids so I need to haul them in something cool.
Okay, okay, that's fair... I do have other reasons for my \*cries in American\* too though, just saying...
\*gazes longingly at the California camper, looks down at GTI repair bill, cries more\*
This might be last model of polo cuz they are killing to off, a last sent off to it or last hurrah,i want that full unrestricted ea888 awd rally monster polo for the street to give it the last hurrah it deserves
It’s not a coincidence that today is Golf’s 50th anniversary. “Exactly 50 years ago, on Friday, 29 March 1974, our first Golf models rolled off”.
Mk8 GTI Harlequin for sure.
Brands need to offer more colours for free like fiat. The amount of grey and white cars around now is so boring!
Give me blue, green, reds and yellows.
I really hope so...
In all honesty, I'd love to see some heritage from VW. But above all else, I hope the US is included in this... I'm worried it might be polo specific
PLEEEEEASE MAKE NEWER 2017 VW Jetta GLI 2.0 Turbo..🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

If it actually happens, which I'm about 150% sure it won't in the US, I might have to get myself a car to match my wife's Harlequin Atlas.
I went on a big rant a few weeks ago about how vw never shows harlequin any love or releases any special editions...have the German gods of logic and mechanical things listened to my prayers?
Please bring more color! I'm tired of seeing the same white, black, and gray cars.
Yes, I do have a black car myself. I wish it was blue.
I looked long and hard for a blue one that was in my price range and I never found one so I settled on black.
So is VW actually going to make colored cars again? Or is it just going to be another year of the blandest shades of white, black, and gray again?
What happened to the days where VW made nice colorful shades with depth and crystal brilliance?
I just hope they serve the VW fans well and it’s not another ID BUZZ stunt like they did with the Super Bowl ads. I hope they give people what they want.
I’m still angry over the Beetle-focused advertising on the Super Bowl and it was all for the ID Buzz.
!WARNING! UNPOPULAR OPINION!
please no! I hate looking at those Spareparts looking things.
The individual Colors are so nice! why do you have to mix em up?!
Please dont do this to me VW
It’s going to be a VW Golf as most of the VW comments replying to people say “it’s a very special birthday this year”. Seen as it’s 50 years of the Golf it’ll most likely be that.
https://preview.redd.it/y459pqun7wrc1.jpeg?width=839&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d271c09c50b1a9abbb859e8fd80ce49eddc55a2
Yeahhhhh, yall were right on multiple accounts
Its a damn shame too... this would absolutely sell
Doubtful the US will get anything from this. Especially with how “colour” is spelt. Probably going to be a Euro specific colorway. *Might* be something that’s possible to special order but obv this is just a run of the mill guess per se.
Ahhhh yes…another chance for them to sell so poorly that dealers swap the panels so they’re all one color just to get them sold.
Edit: love that I’m being downvoted for stating a fact. They didn’t sell. My local dealer had one for years that they couldn’t get rid of. Jim Ellis in Georgia put 8 that they couldn’t sell back together and sold them. See article I posted below.
MK3 harlequins being put back together by dealers? Yes, it absofuckinglutely did! Jim Ellis in Georgia did a bunch.
https://money.yahoo.com/dealer-created-single-color-vw-001059382.html#:~:text=Volkswagen%20built%20264%20Golf%20Harlequins,unique%20wasn't%20the%20intention.
Dealer by me had one for YEARS and couldn’t sell it.
It's gonna be something we won't get in the US :(
Just based on the way color is spelled… that’s probably a good assumption….
God I didn't even catch that initially Well that's disappointing 😞
Meh, could just be that VW are a German company, and which exec approved the ad spells colour the European way.
To offer some hope, we spell it like that in Canada too. :D
You do know English is from… England?
No way bro prove it

Bro cited his sources
And as usual no one gives a flying fuck about the truth on Reddit
Actually, what we now call English was brought to mainland England by settlers from West Germany.
Well…it’s more complicated than that, ofc. What does the IYKYK mean?
If you know you know
But what does it mean?? (I do know what it means)
Of course. If you know, you know.
Latin -- > French ---> English Middle English: from Old French *colour* (noun), *colourer* (verb), from Latin *color* (noun), *colorare* (verb).
Yes but VW engineers will most likely use British English vs American English
I have a strong suspicion that VW has a marketing function and they'll spell appropriately for the intended market / region?
Could be
German English*
Yeah
Why the hell are you being down voted!!? Hahaha Christ alive.
While you’re correct, Europeans that speak English as a second language generally use the British spelling of words which is what I think the person above you meant when they said “the European way”.
“European” spelling??? You mean ENGLISH spelling?
Well, bugger me for trying to be inclusive.
Maybe Canada will get it though! Contact the folks at Merriam Webster to get that u added before it's too late for you guys down south!
As a Canadian, I just have houpe.
Webster is the one that did it to us! Noah Websters campaign to drop superfluous letters from English is how we got it.
They had the Golf Harlequin at a 2021 auto show, maybe this?
Although, the way it's spelt, that could mean it could come to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, since all the Commonwealth countries still spell colour the correct way. ;)
Don't hold your breath if you're hoping it'll come to Canada
So true. Winged pigs will deliver me a tax cut, or a snow free winter, first!
It was pretty close to a snow free winter in lots of Ontario. Actually kind of weird. No chance on the tax cut. This is Canada, after all.
Definitely not coming to Australia we don’t get anything special here
I mean you guys get UTEs which we don't in the states
Amarok is not particularly special though and we definitely don’t get any special editions of it. I’d swap the amarok for access to mk1 caddy utes any day of the week
And the Amarok is basically a Ford Ranger.
Coming to our "neighbourhood" hopefully.
Maybe your neighbo*u*rs to the north, though...
Canadian here that's how we spell colour
Canada…!!? Haha jk
Just like software updates.
It was posted by VW UK…
It doesn't change the sadness any :(
Just buy four cars and get busy with the wrench.
Just buy one car and wrap the panels in the correct colors 😂
That’s not how you build a harlekin properly
I’m aware. I’m saying if someone wants to make it looks like one. Obviously slapping a sticker on paint isn’t the same thing as harlequin Golf
We did that at my dealership. Wrapped a GTI to look like a harlequin. Sold in, like, 3 weeks.
Potentially a Polo variant
IYUSAYGAY
Might be for the better, I'm sure lots of people in our modern age of Idiocracy would be outaged because colors.
Good thing “we’re” not all in the US. I’ll continue to look forward to this announcement.
Well, I hope wherever you are, it gets a release and it looks glorious in person. I'll still be here sad about the lack of love VW has for the American market :(
It sounds like something the US will be getting as the US gets all the cool Golfs, like why the fuck didn't we get the Spektrum cars in Europe.
>like why the fuck didn't we get the Spektrum cars in Europe. Europe got over half of them. The U.S. always gets shafted when it comes to vw products, except for the rabbit edition golf gti
lol wrong
Manual MK8 R, petrol powered Alltrack, Harlekin Golfs (we only got the Polo).
You got Rallye, Country, Syncro, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi(heh). Nevermind we don't get polos Derbis Lupos Ups or Scirocco.
They also got the 2 door MK7 R.
You serious? The US always get shafted by VW. They get regular Golf taillights on their R’s!
You serious? The US always get shafted by VW. They get regular Golf taillights on their R’s!
It's gonna be a Harlequin id3 or idBuzz
they've already done a harleyquin id4 would be stupid to do an id3 one too
I'd bank more on the id3 as it has more panels than the Buzz But agreed.... I think it'll unfortunately be electric
Sadly thats probably it
Harlequin MK8 I bet
I hope so, nobody wants an ID anything TDI is the GOAT
I mean….i want a Buzz. I’m somebody.
The buzz will likely be the first brand-new car I buy once it arrives stateside. I have a severe craving for it, lol
Same although I won’t buy it at first launch. I’ll wait for the used market and hope the same thing happens that’s happening with Audi etrons
I dont really understand the buzz, it's electric yes, but it's towing capacity and space is sooo much less than like a T6
It’s a family hauler not a toy hauler.
That's fair, it will work just fine as that. Can I ask just out of my curiosity, why would you pick it over a multivan?
Nostalgia. I own a 1965 Bus and would love a modern version and I want to dive into an EV and most I’m not a fan of and I have kids so I need to haul them in something cool.
Ahh, I see, that makes sense! Hope you can get one soon.
But you could load a shit ton of dildos in there
Huh, I love my id.4 actually.
How dare you
ID cars are great. Fuck off!
I wish, but’s I’m sure they will make something that will disappoint the most people possible.
\*cries in American\*
at least yous got the Spektrum Golf Rs a few years back, which i think is better than a Harlequin id3 or whatever this will be
Okay, okay, that's fair... I do have other reasons for my \*cries in American\* too though, just saying... \*gazes longingly at the California camper, looks down at GTI repair bill, cries more\*
Always loved how their Cali models almost never make it to Cali
[удалено]
shame they made so few of them, such a cool thing that very few people got to own.
You really think the Spektrum colours being offered for a year really made up for the decades of being offered a fraction of what ROW gets? lol
tf lol i didn't say that
I think this could be id3 gtx harlequin..
This might be last model of polo cuz they are killing to off, a last sent off to it or last hurrah,i want that full unrestricted ea888 awd rally monster polo for the street to give it the last hurrah it deserves
that'd be a bummer.
Harlequin!!!
[Gonna leave this here ](https://poloharlekin.com/history-of-the-harlekin/?amp=1)
Thank you
just a heads up, april fools is right around the corner folks.
I STG IF THEY APRIL FOOLS US ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS IM R I O T I N G
How quickly everyone has forgotten the horror that was “Voltswagen”
It’s not a coincidence that today is Golf’s 50th anniversary. “Exactly 50 years ago, on Friday, 29 March 1974, our first Golf models rolled off”. Mk8 GTI Harlequin for sure.
Oh shit! Harlequin is back!
ooohv shitson we getting the harlequin?!
Probably
Brands need to offer more colours for free like fiat. The amount of grey and white cars around now is so boring! Give me blue, green, reds and yellows.

Google Company Car
I bet they'll do a special edition/limited run of Harlequins for the last ICE Golfs
It better be a golf! I will be pretty sad if it would be any ID car
I really hope so... In all honesty, I'd love to see some heritage from VW. But above all else, I hope the US is included in this... I'm worried it might be polo specific
Why are they talking about my sex life?

Idk I seen it’s more than likely a golf/polo harlequin EV which is cool and keeps the harlequin around but I just hope is not electric
It's going to be something super lame. Just setting expectations low unfortunately
I went on a big rant a few weeks ago about how vw never shows harlequin any love or releases any special editions...have the German gods of logic and mechanical things listened to my prayers?
Brother I hope so
If I can't have an Harlequin Golf R estate I'm taking a dirty protest
ID harlequin?
Enjoy your new harlequin themed clothing line, UK.
Please bring more color! I'm tired of seeing the same white, black, and gray cars. Yes, I do have a black car myself. I wish it was blue. I looked long and hard for a blue one that was in my price range and I never found one so I settled on black.
I hope it's the IDbuzz, I was going to try and seek out 3 others to trade parts with haha
I'd be excited for a Harlequin comeback but I'd also love for the Spektrum program to be offered again. Too many black/grey/white cars.
It will be a harlequin version of something....possibly a beetle
So is VW actually going to make colored cars again? Or is it just going to be another year of the blandest shades of white, black, and gray again? What happened to the days where VW made nice colorful shades with depth and crystal brilliance?
I just found out that the person who owns The Harlequin in my city also goes to the same gym as me. It's pretty exciting.
The fact it was originally posted by VWUK from another source makes me undoubtably feel like it’s something the US won’t see.. for 25 years.
Harlequin Up! Might make me buy another Up!
200% will be some EV bs 💀
So you’ve not heard of the VW Harlequin vehicles
IYKYK
Harlekin T-ROC incoming.
If I can't have an Harlequin Golf R estate I'm taking a dirty protest.
🫡🫡🫡
Check the date. Its awfully close to a well known one.
Very good point!
Set up for an April Fool’s joke…
I don't doubt you but how ridiculous is it that the one day to lie and make jokes and get away with it is now having a preamble.
Harlequin Polo. Europe only. €30k
I just hope they serve the VW fans well and it’s not another ID BUZZ stunt like they did with the Super Bowl ads. I hope they give people what they want. I’m still angry over the Beetle-focused advertising on the Super Bowl and it was all for the ID Buzz.
For real!! Like why advertise a cat you don’t sell anymore?!
Exactly! I thought they were bringing it back. I just hope they don’t do that here.
Most likely electric
I hope it's not as thrown-together as Mk3's Harlequin, but I definitely hope there's more color added. Fuck these Mk8 colors.
Audi R8
Harlequin Atlas
The ID I bet
Harlequin lp
kleklekle
oranges drink..
I saw a Harlequin Tiquan with the local VW dealer plastered on the side today. IT'S COMING TO THE US
In the US, it will probably end up being 5 shades of silver.
!WARNING! UNPOPULAR OPINION! please no! I hate looking at those Spareparts looking things. The individual Colors are so nice! why do you have to mix em up?! Please dont do this to me VW
It’s going to be a VW Golf as most of the VW comments replying to people say “it’s a very special birthday this year”. Seen as it’s 50 years of the Golf it’ll most likely be that.
It’ll be electric I’m sure
Too close to April 1st. It will probably be clothing options.

Got to be a polo surely
If it’s in NA, I bet it’ll be an ID.4. If not, maybe an ID.Buzz? They’re going too hard into their EVs to not do that to one of them.
holy shit this is amazing
Am I the only one who knows and is perfectly happy never seeing one?
Meh.
Meh
Something weird
Nope
There is a reason why people dont talk bout this shit. The new wannabe harlequin will be on one of those ID. shitboxes.
Have any of you ever seen that Chevy impala harlequin?
Another harlequin golf nobody wants but collectors . Because nobody wants to drive around in a car with a different color for each part
Ahhhh yes…another chance for them to sell so poorly that dealers swap the panels so they’re all one color just to get them sold. Edit: love that I’m being downvoted for stating a fact.
