    I dunno......slowly growing on me...it does however look too much like the fugly Civic SiR hatch.

    I've only seen a few pics of these in stock form...and they are ugly. But when modiifed (like the ABT one) they look pretty nice....

    Will have to wait and see one in real life to make final decision....

    that pic makes it look so very hot, but i have seen others where the car appears pigish and huge.

    as for the jette, i havent seen it yet but they better not mess that up as its a HUGE part of N/A VW sales.

    I wonder if VW are expanding the use of their TDI engine, and what the long term reliability of that engine is in the Golf?

    I dont mind the Golf redesign.

    yes, they are. It seems a 2.0l TDI is possible for the golf/jetta V. The passat will be getting a TDI of its own soon and the mother of all TDI's is poised to hit N/A, the 5.0L V10 TDI for the touareg.

    I used to hate it, but looking at that picture i think it looks pretty good, it has good lines and looks more sleek then the mkiv

    Need to revise the front ligths as it basically mirrors the Civic SiR Hatch design. As it stands, I dont like it. It loses the distinct classy look that all current VWs have. You can't really mistake them for anything else.

    This MKIV Golf and the spy shot of the MKIV Jetta....I dunno. Can be mistaken for some Toyotas or Civics. Not a good thing.
