don't get what? this will net alot of sales in france and other european countries because of the lower emissions and fuel consumption
don't forget the purpose of VW is to make money, not to satisfy YOU

I likey. Probably the best German hatch out there. When the GTI comes, should also be one of the best hot hatches.

They should say theive done a face lift instead of a totally new golf cause the appearance hasnt changed much

What on earth were they thinking when they designed this? Of course it'll be controversial, some will like, some won't. Some brand whores will be frothing at the mouth for a brief period until the climax has been reached and ejaculation over. MK5 looks much better - don't care what anyone says - and owning a MK5 GTI, all I can say is thank goodness Audi can still make good looking cars, or I'd be stuck for my next.

Come on, it's not that bad. The styling of the MK V wasn't exactly enthusiastically embraced (just ask a MK IV owner); but, it grew on you. This is sporty and distinctive.
The Golf is the best in class for hatchbacks and it looks like VW will maintain that through sophisticated features.
Being that the impetus for the MK VI was to increase margins, I'm curious why there is no discussion about the suspension which was identified as too costly in the MK V.

The Mark V was nice enough and this is slightly nicer with the more aggressive headlamps. I think the GTI will be pretty sweet looking.

It's a damn Golf with barely a 100 hp what do you expect?? Fender flares and 19' rims?! This is quite neat for a base model. Bring out the GTI already, I need a new car.

tbrodie beat me to it... the mkV got the same reception when it first came out. People kept saying that the mkIV looks better etc... eventually it grew on people.
