The Best Car I've Ever Owned

2007 Volkswagen GTI 2dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

This car ROCKS! This is my all time favorite car. I have owned roughly two dozen cars in the past 17 years and this by far beats them all. It is a blast to drive and comes complete with a following. The VW culture is great and all the people I have met are fabulous. Not only did I end up with the best car I have ended up with a new family also and i love it!

After 22 months of ownership, this car beats all others that I have owned. NO trips to the dealer for anything but scheduled service, great performance and comfort, pretty good fuel economy (29 average city/hwy, goes down to 27 when driving 80+ on highway)--and it cost $26,000. Surprising amount of interior space--holds 4 adults comfortably for short and medium trips.

GTI MKV is VW's Best Yet

The handling is better than ever. The performance is everything you read. The rear seat is roomier than my wife's mini-SUV (really!). And the computer says the engine has averaged 32.0 mpg in 7500 miles of mixed but usually gentle (ok... not quite always gentle) driving.

Simply Brilliant

The combination of the versatility of the DSG transmission (spring for the extra grand) with an amazingly torquey engine, makes this one special car for the price. The four door version, in my opinion, improves its profile over the two door model, not to mention it adds utility. The GTI's fit and finish are of the highest quality. It's a better looking than the Audi A3 for about eight grand less. The only downside so far is that collision insurance (as with most VW's) costs quite a bit more than average.

I LOVE my GTI

After test driving several cars (Mazda3, MINI, Subaru WRX, Rabbit etc) I decided to purchase the GTI. I knew right away that it was the car I wanted. It is so much fun to drive. It is very powerful, handles corners great, the interior is very comfortable, it has a quiet ride, gets good gas mileage, is safe, etc. It comes with built in Sirius Satellite radio. I was concerned about the electrical issues VWs are known for when researching cars, but was reassured by the fact that the GTI is made only in Germany and that the electrical issues have been addressed.
