Someone i work with has the '07 rabbit GTi, apart from the crap seat sliding mechanism, its really pretty fast. So far he's had it up to 146mph and the torque curve is flat as hell, so it pulls from idle to the redline.

base 15K

cheaper and faster than a civic I'd much rather drive a vw than a civic, I've worked on them and the way they are built is very dfferent than a honda

Re: The New Rabbit
 

GTi starts at around 22k......

the regular rabbit looks good, but I rather get a gti. I like the cars, but have heard stories. The older engines are crap, except for the vr6 pretty much.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

you've never owned a VW then. and base rabbits msrp for 15k, but they're more like 18. the gti is 25ish i think and is more neer 30 once yo add in the expensive ass transmission and other bells and whistles. I'm driving an mk2 gti now, lady has an mk1 also, I've driven mk4's no 5's VW's might seem like they have a good fit and finish and everything, but they're just big peices of ----. I took a 1500 dollar hit on mine just so I didn't have to drive the ------- thing anymore. The vr6 breaks all of the time too, the only good engine VW made are their old non turbo diesels and their 8v's.

thanks rawr

Re: The New Rabbit
 

if it cost you 1500 to fix you probably didn't fix it yourself

Re: The New Rabbit
 

In the UK, the rabbit starts at $40k and goes up to $50k for the fully specced up version.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

he meant he lost 1500 by selling it i assume

Re: The New Rabbit
 

Its nice little car.VW's are borderline on junk though :-\

Re: The New Rabbit

Re: The New Rabbit

New rabbit looks like ass...

Re: The New Rabbit

Re: The New Rabbit

Re: The New Rabbit
 

Imho vw are over priced pieces of ----

Re: The New Rabbit
 

yep

Re: The New Rabbit
 

vw's are for chics and middle class people trieing to be rich but cant afford a bmw or benz. vw= shitty to work on and as a car. id rather drive a honda or american car.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

Preppy faggots love them. Thankfully rawr didn't want to be with them anymore :)

Re: The New Rabbit
 

I cant stand working on most vdubs, I started with a 54 ragtop bug and have owned/built a porsche 911 and had no problems but ---- they way they put some ---- together in the 90's :S I did a ---- ton of work to a vr6 corrado at the shop and you couldn't pay my ass to own one of those piles of ----.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

Psst..... It's the turbes ;)

Re: The New Rabbit
 

am i the only one that noticed the sequential transmission option?! That would be freakin sweet........vw's are nice i like the jetta tdi's.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

my buddy has one, i made out in the back with some chick, wicked room

Re: The New Rabbit
 

My Element not only "chirps third" it lights them up on third. So that comparison is not valid.....case close. And yeah I'm not kidding. That Element is a fun car.

Re: The New Rabbit
 

ok enough talking about vw lets get a video of davcivic burning the tires in the bread box :y

Re: The New Rabbit
 

i drove one, they are fast as hell for a stock 20000 dollar car

Re: The New Rabbit
 

Agreed :y :y :y

Re: The New Rabbit
 

I was thinking about buying an element soon for a DD. And I can throw my bike on the roof. I never posted any thing asking everyones opinion because I knew i'd get flamed. Thanks for being the first to admit they bought an element. How do you like it? Is the realtime 4wd system junk of does it work well.
