I actually like this model. But the thing is, they will never be able to get the old GTI's style and spirit back.

yeah not if they keep making it heavier and more expensive to buy. i see why they have to do it though. the market is getting more and more luxurious, vw's were always first to bring certain luxury features into its class. one of the first compact cars to offer heated seats and heated windows.
it now adds independent rear suspension and a sensor that recognizes winds hitting the side of the car and it keeps the car from shifting to a side making for a more linear luxurious ride.

Yeah these are ugly as hell, I don't know why VW is trying so hard to shed its boxy look. I bought my 03 Gti so quickly because I was afraid they might launch this ugly one for the 04 model.

well, wvsung, its a helluva lot cheaper in the US. The tuning alone is more $ than the car to begin with.

you get taxed on the size of your engine too in europe, right? anything over 2 liters?

"you get taxed on the size of your engine too in europe, right? anything over 2 liters?"
nope. not here at least. you DO get taxed on the weight over your ride.

DO NOT buy this the first year. VW fit/finish is top-notch, but overall quality sucks.
Wait for them to work out the bugs.
