CONS: No manual trans, poor MPG, expensive, Typical VW (lack of) reliability

REVIEW: We have had the car for about a year and a half, rides and handles great, but has been back to dealer for several 'recalls' and other service issues. The interior is great, seats are very comfortable, its great in the snow(with snow tires) The car gets horrible gas mileage, we avg about 16 ...

CONS: Only available in 2 doors, some rattling

REVIEW: This is the second best handling car in its category after the Mitsubishi Evo X but it's a lot more confortable. A blast to drive on slippery and snow covered roads. If you leave the TC on there's no drama. If you turn it off you can enjoy very easily controllable slides. Not the fastest ...

CONS: Lower than necessary fuel economy, lack of true manual or four door option for the US

REVIEW: I've had my R32 for a month and a half now. I had been drooling over the car at the VW lot for over a month before, and when I saw how badly they wanted to move it I jumped on. I got into the R from a 2008 350Z. The reduction in power is more than made up for by all the luxury features. And I ...

CONS: A bit too thirsty for the required premium fuel.

REVIEW: I've had my R for several months. The car has fits me like a glove. The interior has a very upscale Euro look & feel. The exterior is rather unextraordinary, and only true car nuts recognize the car for what it is. (Sometimes being "under the radar" has its advantages.) Its ...

CONS: high on fuel, could use larger tank, but so smooth on lower speed

REVIEW: This is my 10th VW and so far the best even better than the Corrado. More mature look than the GTI. Simple interior but so classy. Trill by my car ...

CONS: It is what it is, I love it, to me it doesn't have any.

REVIEW: I really enjoy the all wheel drive and the power. Exhaust system sounds great too, although a little TOO loud sometimes when I'm trying to blend in! I'm happy to report that I have not had any problems with it all; I've owned it over 7 months. I think it's the greatest car I've ...

CONS: poor mileage/small tank, no fog lights, lacks standard features. Center lights not for USA

REVIEW: The items they cut out such as fog lights, garage door buttons, power driver/passenger seat, glove box light,....you won't care much about when you are tucked in, adjusted and driving. But c'mon, these are such standard type items, that are probably in the GTI's, that it's an ...

CONS: Needs 50 more horsepower

REVIEW: I can understand why this car is routinely compared to the STi and Evo, but it's not really a competitor. HP figures aside, the R32 is about so much more than outright speed. The R32 is more of a GT car rather than a purpose-built car like the STi or Evo. The suspension is stiff yet ...

CONS: Few typical GTI-like rattles, fuel economy, older generational DVD-Navi

REVIEW: Have the DVD-Navi option which I've grown to like but it's a bit old school. Wonderful car, very good commuter if you don' t mind the fuel economy which is my only gripe. BUT, this car is 4-wheel drive and does encourage hard driving (because it so much fun). With mixed driving in the ...

CONS: fuel economy, moderate stock tires, speakers rattle when radio is pushed

REVIEW: Amazing car. Purchased it for invoice from a dealership in Dallas, TX. Its something i have always wanted and i have been driving VW and Audis for some years now. Everything has been great so far first 2k miles have been awsome. the radio could be a little better and the speaker mounting isnt the ...
