Exclamation New 2005 VW GTI

Don't know if you guys have seen this. I wouldn't say that it's absolutely terrible, but I HATE this upcoming look of new cars these days. They seem to be going toward that Scion Xa crap. There are two good things about the GTI: nice interior, 200 hp 2.0T

2005 GTI

That 2.0T could be a lot of fun to tune though, the 1.8T has already proven to be an interesting engine a 0.2L increase in displacement would make it just a bit more interesting.

I saw that thing about a year ago in europe in a magazine. I believe they already have it over there. I don't think it looks that bad actually, but its not all that hot either.

Yeah I'm anxious to see one on the road. I almost puked when I saw the pics for the 7th gen civics, and I own one now . But I definitely love the present design, don't know why they had to change it so radically.
