Took a new GTI for a ride while the girlfriend looked at a Cabrio. What a fun car to drive, it has a 2.0 liter 200hp turbo 4 cylinder with a 6 speed DSG tip tronic trans! The salesman was really cool, he showed me how to do a "controlled launch" with it. This is where you put it in sport mode on the shifter turn off traction control, hold the brake and rev it to 3500 RPM and let it go!!!!!!! It takes off like you dumped a clutch or something! These are a limited production car with 1200 being imported. And they are all orange with special rims. I tell you if I was in the market for a new daily driver I might consider this one!

They are just a slighty tuned mkV GTI. Mainly its the color & interior options. But yes they are very nice. The DSG is the best semi-auto and I might even think about getting one when I get old or something.
It's a good thing you don't read the stickies, you might of learned something.

Yea they showed me the literature on that car too, said I could pre order it because its not available yet. Its 250 HP and AWD! I did like the GTI Fahrenheit though! They asked me if I wanted to take it home overnight to "test" it out!Originally posted by muscle_Car1http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publish/vortex_news/article_1926.shtml
