2007 Volkswagen GTI review from North America
"I smile every time I look at it, and grin every time I drive it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong; runs like a dream.
General comments?
I love this car.
It feels so solid and seems very well put together.
The DSG transmission with the paddle shifters is simply outstanding; all of the benefits of a manual with none of the drawbacks.
The steering wheel has a great design (just test drive a new GTI, you'll see what I mean).
Great headlights and wipers, and the car has a lot of thoughtful amenities.
