In general though, I love the look of the new Golf lineup. If I never needed a daily driver, it would probably be it.

Save 8 grand, buy a GTI with a performance pack, get an APR tune, and laugh at the golf R in your rear view mirror. Plus you can get that sweet, sweet Jacky plaid interior. But...but AWD!! The performance pack gets you a full locking mechanical diff, and adaptive suspension. So traction and torque steer are non-factors.
Mine will be here mid-Dec. Silver, 6 spd, 2 door, every option but leather. Just like a GTI was meant to be.
