For Retro fans tires with white trim will be available.

Doesn't say which platform it'll be on but looks like Mk6 since the Mk7 arrives in 2013. Not in the article but for the US, I think VW will offer the Diesel 2.0L, Gas 2.0L Turbo and the current 2.5L.

Although these are artists renditions, I hope they go with either one of these drawings, hopefully the silver pic.
