A year ago I was faced with an almost certain increase in my monthly mileage from 2,000 miles to 3,000 miles, and as such I drove my trusty minivan down to a local Honda dealership and drove a Civic EX 5-Speed. I was impressed. Fast forward a year, a couple of contract changes, and lots of trials and tribulations, and I'm once again faced with the possibility of driving ... Read More...

no manual for the 4 door? What goes on in VW's head? Why in God's green earth would they stop offering the manual in the 4 door, or in any model for that matter. I love my 4 door 2007 rabbit. Read More...

hey bro, i understand about wanting a more frugal engine in the bunny, but here are some things you should think about. 1.the 2.5 is a N/a market only engine. this engine can be found nowhere in germany. why? it was built specifically to american tastes, hence the torque. its marketed as the uber city car, and with that much low end, it excels. 2. they did not simply ...

with regards to diesels, i dunno how vw's strategy sucks, nissans first diesel is going to be the maxima, and we'll have to wait until 2010 for that, and it certainly won't be economical in every sense of the word. Honda wont be bringing one over until around 2009 and its going to be in accord guise... so you have basically pointed out 2 diesel vehicles that will cost ... Read More...

It's looking pretty certain that a Jetta TDI will be available in the March-May 2008 timeframe. There's no reason why the Rabbit TDI shouldn't go on sale at about the same time. The Jetta TDI is supposed to have a 2.0-liter engine -- I assume the Rabbit will get the same engine and not a new version of the recent 1.9-liter engine. A Jetta wagon is coming soon -- it should ... Read More...
