  • The sixth generation of the original hot hatch trades raw emotion for a civilized ride. But dont worry; thanks to some new innovations it can carve a corner better than ever.

    I test driven this mk6 GTI yesterday, it's mindboggling, i can't believe how happy and fun it is around some backroads' curves. people say 200horsepower is small, but what people don't realize is the power delivery, it's just so refined and eager. my advice is to you testdrive it!!, im getting one soon !

    @On1y1Ch1na It allows an Automatic car to be reved while being in Drive and having the brake is engaged.

    @serge1691 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @charles4hl well the 2.0t on the a4 gets 211 , but that may get more where you are so who knows..ive always wondered what the difference is there.

    @jekyll1776 where do you work to work with Corvettes?

  • @killabandit
    @killabandit 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @AgentStyles It's Autobahn. That was the key point to me buying one was the interior quality and ride. Way above it's competitors. All cars have issues and my last Nissan which I only owned for 4 months was in the shop 5 times in the first month I owned it. So....

    @Jonnybgoode101:
    I was going to get a manual too until I tried the DSG. Fell in love and it went home with me that afternoon.

  • @killabandit
    @killabandit 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @AgentStyles It had 17 miles, it was a new 2010 Nissan Titan. I have owned many Nissans, from Maximas, to a Z car before the Titan, and all have been fairly reliable but they had their issues. Not as bad as the last one. Our Honda has been in the shop twice in 3 years. Mostly cosmetic interior pieces falling apart. Our Acura TL has never had a issue either.

  • @detective40oz
    @detective40oz 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe the new engine is the TSI 2.0 vs. the FSI 2.0 in the previous version.

  • @raulecalderon
    @raulecalderon 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    if i get one i would get the manual transmission, just because i have heard that the automatic is kind of unreliable, i don't know if that is true about the trans i'm just saying.

  • @Bulgdoom
    @Bulgdoom 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Bulgdoom
    I love the words he uses to describe the car, the steering wheel has a nice
    "MEETY" feel to it and then he goes on to comment on the "COCKPIT". Is there more to this video that meets the eye?

    what colour is this ? carbon steel grey ?

  • @sahilsvision

    @jekyll1776 Do you think it's just better go with a used 2009 instead of buying a new 2010 GTI?

    @morecowbell69 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TypeDoubleR -There's no Civic Type-R in the U.S., so it doesn't matter.
    The point of this car isn't to be the fastest., but the nicest.

  • @killabandit
    @killabandit 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @AgentStyles Actually the GTI is more value for the money. It may not have the same HP/TQ numbers the 3 does, but everything else about the car blows the doors off the 3. Reliability, build quality, looks, comfort, interior, etc. For $599~ get a chip, and it will eat a 3 for lunch.

  • @Kaisersozze
    @Kaisersozze 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, it only begs one questions, what exactly is wrong with the guy's leg?

    @eaglemihnea In the US we do not get the tweaked engine that the European market got

  • @charles4hl
    @charles4hl 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah !!! haha Wish we could have all engines you've got in Europe. We're really poor on diesel engines and too many cars come standard with an auto transmission!

  • @donkeylipz
    @donkeylipz 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice car but if they cut their production costs they really should have lowered the price to sell a higher volume and get their product out there. Not much of a market out there for $24k+ hatches.

  • @jekyll1776
    @jekyll1776 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @BetterDayz19 I would if the price was right. I dont care much for the looks or cosmetics of the car. Mechanically they are pretty much the same car. You could put the money you save into mods to the older one or something.
    Looks pretty though =p lol.

  • @sahilsvision

    is 2010 worth extra money over 2009?

  • @ALMSfuture
    @ALMSfuture 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    the mkvi is by far the car of the year in my books. the only thing i think VW skimped up with this car is this XDS. yes, it works very well, but it is not a 'true' differential, simply because it is using the brakes to stop tire spin. but oh well. it makes up for it with that 2.0LT hahahaaa

  • @jekyll1776
    @jekyll1776 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    who said i had a honda? lol
    I have a jetta actually, and its pretty slow.
    the jump from 200hp to 211 probably nothing you would feel. like adding a little cold air intake.
    But then again i work on corvettes all day, so if it doesnt have 500hp, it doesnt really do much for me. =)

    @Yellowmusicfreak...Dude, wat r u talkin about... Its not a "2.0 N/A that can make 200hp/207lbft".. its a 2.0 "Turbo" that can make 200hp/207lbft ... I think Honda is tryin to keep their cars N/A for the "fuel economy" approach of consumers..

    @Tophairybutt 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    You say the steering wheel feels meaty in your hands? I'll drop my pants, and you can feel something meaty in your hands! Stop shaking your right leg! If you have to take a leak, tell the camera man. He will hit the pause button until you go to the "Lady's Room".

    I agree, not very professional for his moving. Unless he has a condition then I understand. If that's the case, show him waist up. Otherwise give your reviewers a bathroom brake!

    @joserpm 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Amen, brother! I test drove a Civic Si, and I HATED IT. It took forever to get up to speed. Yet, it's one of the best selling sporty cars in the U.S. There are better cars out there. Subaru WRX, VW GTI, and even the Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V will smoke a stock Civic Si.

  • @tootsiejoon
    @tootsiejoon 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    This car is not that fast. 6.8 second?? Too long, but the price and quality and value is unbeatable. I wish VW would put more juice in to this car. GTI deserve it. I would buy this car in a hurry if had more horse power.

    @lbryan250 why don't you check YOUR facts. You are dead wrong. The 2008.5 and 2009, which are considered MK5's were equipped with literally the exact same engine as the mk6. Look it up. Both the mk6 and some mk5 models were equipped with the TSI engine with literally the same output as the mkv models. You should think before you type nonsense.
