It looks like a "Mini Focus"

 

I like the color.

 

Me to.

 

I love the color, but it looks like a honda civic.

 

Right about that, that's why they have a good many vwdub guys going to other cars....

However, I do love the rear centered exhaust, vaugly familiar....

 

I like it. :smile:

 

It has a very Mazda3 look to it from that angle. Gee, I'm so glad I decided not to wait for the new GTI to land here in North America...

 

the Mk. V pwnz. The car in that picture has what I *think* is the ABT bodykit, that's obviously not stock. I can't wait for this car- my next car is either going to be a white Mk.V GTi or an 07 Cooper S.

This is the first VW since the Mk.II's that I would actually enjoy driving from a performance standpoint- the guy that designed the suspension dynamics for the Mk.1 Ford Focus (which I currently have, and love it for it's handling, even when coupled to a mediocre engine) did the suspension for the Mk.V GTi, and it has a very similar design.

This means that we finally have a VW that doesn't handle like a fat pig! So, a more nimble GTI, plus a big nod to the original GTi, plus the superb new 2.0T engine, and I'm all about it.

I was kinda up in the air about the exterior styling, but I like it a lot now, after seeing some aftermarket kits.

That said, I doubt it will handle as good as the MCS, stock vs. stock. And I prefer the styling of the MCS.

 

Nice VW I like it..............

 

oh my bad, that wasn't an ABT kit on that orange one. but here it is... this is the car (minus the AWFUL Lambo-style ricer doors) that made me REALLY want a Mk.V GTi:

 

I like it even more.
