Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

The wait is long enough as it is, screw waiting till 2011.

There are those rumors of push button start going around for 2011 models, but that's purely speculation, and hardly worth waiting till 2011. Also, the LED tail lights were being talked about, but as they are being offered as a factory fitted option or accessory this is also unlikely.

Whats the big deal about a starter button? Didnt we get rid of that crap 60 years ago?

I like the Toyota un-intended acceleration issue in the USA. Apparently you need to press the START/STOP button for 3 seconds to stop the engine while in motion. HArdly intuitive when with a key you can just turn it to shut the engine off.

I noticed the R has a start button on one of the pics.. not sure if AUS will get it or not.

Wow thats pretty damn cheap, or is it just me thinking that??

It's in the USA... so I wouldn't say that it's cheap. Car prices are vastly different there. And they're also in bad financial times where many people can't get loans...

Best not to look at prices of cars in the USA, it's depressing. GTIs over there are around mid 20s brand new. Without getting too off topic though, I'm not sure what the average wage is in the USA and if that off sets the cheap car prices at all. I doubt it, it's mainly due to the much larger population/market to sell to and our high taxes here certainly don't help our cause.

To be fair. Most hot hatches are priced all in the same catagory:

golf gti
civic type r
ford xr5
Mazda 3 mps
lancer ralliart
Subaru wrx

they all start around the $40,000 mark and work their way up to their more powerful siblings the evo, sti, r etc etc.

What are we being fair about?

It's done ~100000kms in under 3 years.

That's fair..
