I really love my GLI - it looks great, I get asked questions about it all the time and it gets second glances in parking lots and driving by. The 2.0 turbo engine is an absolute peach, don't be fooled by its relatively low power numbers, it pulls effortlessly. There are also a great variety of modifications available if thats your kind of thing. The DSG transmission takes some getting used to but it shifts extremely fast and smooth. The manual would be nice but it feels kind of rubbery. Ride comfort is OK. The car is a blast on the back roads with scalpel-precise steering. Great seats, decent interface, and a ton of trunk space make it practical as well. Overall very happy.
Never spent so much in repairs!

I've never had a car with this many problems. Every week, something new goes wrong. I've barely rolled 100,000 miles and its like the car is falling apart. It has been meticulously maintained its entire life, but now it wants to quit on me. No A/C, no heat, no turbo, no cruise control, dash is lit up like a Christmas tree and the dealership isn't sure whats wrong with it. Transmission hitches constantly, vibrations and rattles galore, I could go on and on. I will never purchase another VW/Audi! Nothing but expensive headaches.
