Thread: 2010 VW Golf GTI VI: New Gallery with 45 High-Res Photos of Production Model

cheap speed the MS3 would rape the GTI. Its funny how these magazines focus so much in track testing when only like 5% of the people who buy em track em. If I'm looking for cheap SPEED I would get an MS3 hands down, its not even close! The GTI R will be the solution to everything I don't like about the GTI! except for the price!

A few shots of mine from today:

In any case, I don't mean to anger the resident VW apologists, as I stated in the past my...

NO doubt, I am trying to make myself keep my MS3 and pay it off, so I can get into a 2 year old 4 door M3. May as well get a car perfect right out of the box.

Quote: Still fun after all these years, the GTI is one of the best examples of getting more than what you pay for. For many of us, the GTI is the answer to the question “If you had to have one car that would do everything-- and you had to pay for it yourself--which one would it be?” The GTI answers the practicality question, with its available four doors, folding rear seats, and hatchback design. It also answers the fuel-economy question by...

Quote: Originally Posted by Len Yeah, you could be right. It could be due to localized suppliers. But nonetheless, I am yet to see a real evidence that Mexican made VWs are in fact less reliable than German made ones. I don't mean to push this point too much, but I'm skeptical because it fits people's stereotypes about Germany and Mexico just too well. I think there is a very good reason to believe that currently German made...

I get the special order part, but last I checked these German near-luxo cars come with reasonable level of equipment. Which missing standard equipment would...

Quote: Originally Posted by boxerinside ^^^ yeah but once again the article is about "cheap SPEED" not other stuff. only way to measure speed is with numbers so once again there is nothing the GTI will do against the ms3 in that department. they shouldn't be comparing these cars at least NOT for speed. No, it's not about which is the fastest car, it's about which is the better, all around car. Most people...
