This Year's Model Updates:

For the old 1.8T GTI, the VR6 style has been dropped and more features, including 17-inch wheels and stability control, are now standard. Starting in the late spring of 2006, the 1.8T Volkswagen GTI will be slowly phased out in favor of a fully redesigned model. As before, this performance hatchback will be based on the upcoming next-generation Golf. Highlights for the new GTI include increased performance, new styling and more interior room.

Pros:
  • Hatchback utility, upscale features and interior design, strong engine and automated manual gearbox of redesigned GTI.
Cons:
  • Higher price than those of its competitors, old GTI lacks oomph.

  • I Love My Fast! - 2006 Volkswagen GTI
    By -

    The GTI is fun, sporty, stylish, responsive, and fast for this class of car! It is nice for driving to work but my Fast cant wait for the weekend when we run in the hills. The back seat is a little small but I did not buy it to haul my kids. It has plenty of room for shopping, and you can always fold down the back seat. It has comfortable seating up front with most everything within easy reach of the driver, and the air-conditioned glove box and center armrest work great for keeping the beer chilled. Just kidding about the beer!
