This is my 2nd Golf 7.5 and so far I've been really happy with it. My current car is a GTI S model, my previous was a loaded R. I do miss the push button start and nicer lighting of the R, but I don't miss the leather or added weight of the awd. This car handles well, has adequate power (with room for tons more), and loads of space, it's the perfect all rounder just as all the youtube vids say lol

Rabbit GTI Canada

2019 Volkswagen Golf GTI Rabbit Edition 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

Highlights: -Has plenty of power in Sport shift mode from a stop or going up hills -Paddle shifters can be fun to play with at different speeds -Dynamic Chassis Control (adaptive suspension) with Sport, Normal, and Comfort modes -Handling, steering: great feel and cornering -Adaptive Cruise Control is easily customizable and smooth -Cornflower Blue and 18" Pretoria Wheels colour get a lot of compliments The only issues thus far have been with the stock tires not having much grip and electrical stuff: crash sensors blaring when covered with ice and Spotify glitching with Android Auto here and there, but I do like the look of Google Maps (Satellite view) with live traffic on the big screen. City fuel efficiency is not great: around 12L/100km. But on the freeway it's less than 7L/100. The gas cap recommends regular fuel, which surprised me. Looking forward to taking a roadtrip when the snow melts.

2019 GTI Autobahn

2019 Volkswagen Golf GTI Autobahn 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

The car does everything well - acceleration, handling, steering and brakes, etc. Autobahn is well appointed with adaptive cruise, high end sound system, leather and other features. Hatchback is very roomy foe a smaller car.

Car drives very well. Very sporty, responsive and quick. Interior feels plush for a base model. Decent room (even in the back) for a compact hatch.

I love Volkswagen GTI. It's not only relatively affordable but also fun to drive. I'd recommend this car to anyone.
