Ever look at MKV GTIs?
Really nice looking, handling, performing. Fairly cheap, with an optional DSG system. Lots of space. Sure it may not please the rotards on here who think its practical to drive a 2 seater that burns a qt of oil every 5K miles, or the V8 nutswingers who say that if each testicle counted for a liter, their balls would displace more than a b18c, but it's still a nice car, esp for the cost.
