VW Golf GTi, What do you know? Options

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

I was out test driving cars again the other day and I ran into a 1.8 turbo Gti. I like this car a lot. Very simple but nice styling. And it was pretty fast too. Come with 180hp. I figure 300hp wouldn't be to hard to get. I was just wondering what people have heard about this car. And does anyone know if the 2.8vr6 is a better option? I'm liking the lightweight 1.8 turbo. Just curious.

buddy unless you have a gt4 you cant take a 1.8t.

both my friends have gtis, a 2k4 VR6 and a 2k3 1.8t. From a stop the vr6 wins by a good amount, from a roll at 30 the vr6 wins by a tirelength due to lack of power in 3rd gear.

they both have mods but either way they are alot faster then any celi that doesnt have a swap/turbo or a 3s.

the celi in noway throws you back in its seat like a vr6 does.



anyway i hate VW. if you want a cruise car look elsewhere, their handling sucks, way to top heavy. their weight is a killer, wiring issues up the ass and need i go on. Oh forgot you need high test gas on ****ty gas milage.
