From an 04 Vibe to an 06 GTI

Post by vibepa »

Last Saturday I visited a Volkswagen dealership just to check out the GLIs with no intention of buying a new vehicle but when I seen the one and only GTI on the lot I knew I was about to do something drastic. Then I made a mistake and took it for a test drive wow the responsive from the 2.0TFSI engine and the smooth shifting of the DSG automatic transmisson was its selling point. Also it handles like a dream come true. I knew I had to have this car. I got a decent amount for my trade in and the following tuesday I picked it up. THe vibe was a good reliable car but it was no fun to drive.specsI4 Turobcharged engine 200hp/207tq6 spd DSG automaticFront independant suspensionrear multi linke suspension18 inch rims with performance tires

car and driver recently compared the new GTI and the new SI. the GTI came on top. so a good buy i'd say, bu the styling is 90's civic hatchback. from the side anyways. good luck with it.
