A MKVII GTI can be had at or near 20k, the MQB platform has brought a lot to these cars. Will give Brian plenty more utility and practicality while still maintaining his Jalop-cred. I am absolutely in love with my 2016 Golf R and I’m sure the GTI delivers just as great an experience.

The hula girl and gnome are subtle commentary on the concept Microbus vs the possible production Microbus.

Volkswagen will need a sales strategy that goes beyond relying on “German engineering” and a “premium feel.”

Had a Focus ST, would sit on a two mile long hill that would take 20 minutes to clear in evening rush hour, wouldn’t get to fully let out the clutch the entire time because traffic was moving so slow....bought an auto, everything is better now.

Can confirm. Daily drive a manual through Boston traffic and never want for an automatic.

I’ve got a question.

Facebook Live is dumb. It looks terrible.

Please.
