Driven those before. Like the stock power, loved the interior. I have a TDI wagon with DSG, the ergonomics take a little to get used to, but I've grown to like it a lot.

Why a GTI all of the sudden?

Just wanted to try the DSG as I am an aging MT driver with a sore left ankle..

I like it; thing is fast as hell with even a mild tune and light weight wheels. Recently lowered on VWR springs. And the stereo is just phenomenal.

I can see myself getting another electronic clutch car in the future.

Hell I might get the GolfR next time.

Yep the stereo is way ahead of my G (and zillion miles better than my bare bone Z). The DSG is lovely too, manual shifts, especially downshifts, are again miles better than my G's 7at.

i dont have experience with the G's AT, but the GTI surpassed my expectations in all sorts of levels. the autobahn trim has basically everything one would want in a car as far as technology and convenience. the LED interior lighting is a real nice touch too. im happy with the car overall and its playful comical looks.

after driving my GTI, i hop into my STI with nav, keyless, and harmon stereo.. i notice how mediocre the interior quality and infotainment is in the STI.

but i luv my STI. thing is a blast to drive.
