Bez sarkazma, ozbiljno pitam jer i ja razmisljam da eventualno uzmem golfa ili jettu kao drugo auto.
Za sada sve radi , al ne smijem puno da ga hvalim da se ne urekne
Ja mislim da je ovaj put VW skontao da vise nema zajebancije sa Americkim trzistem te je stoga i cekao tri godine da izbaci novog Golfa/ Jettu , valjda dok je uklonio "buggs" koji se javljaju na novim modelima. Vrijeme ce pokazati svoje.

Golf je precijenjen, ruzan(sto je opet subjektivno, ali i objektivno ne puca od ljepote ni malo) i uz to veliki rizik od kradje----hmm, ne bih ga kupio nikad.

Apsolutno se slažem! Bio bih sretan što imam Golfa samo kad bih ga dobio na lutriji. Ali, da ja dajem pare, nema šanse! Ima toliko drugih auta koja su i kvalitetnija i ljepša i boljih voznih osobina i nisu tako očajno dosadna za te pare! Ja na auto gledam kao na izvor zabave (između ostalog), a ne samo da me vozi od tačke A do tačke B. Golf je za to dušu dao.

golf je napravljen da bi radni narod njemacke imao sta da voza.
samo kod nas se cijeni kao da je aman zaman u pitanju neko super vozilo.
a zapravo je jedno od najneudobnijih vozila.

Svi ljudi kupuju auta prema profilu i potrebama. Zbog toga svaki proizvodjac ima male modele (za zene i mlade ljude), auta srednje klase dostupna sljakerskoj populaciji, karavana za zanatlije i trgovce kojima treba gepeka, monovolumene i veca auta za porodicne ljude sa vise djece, elegantne limuzine za poslovne ljude, sportske verzije modela za mlade i neizivljene vozace.
Dakle, Golf je u globalu i kod nas popularan jer se za relativno razumne pare dobije solidno auto (dobar odnos ulozeno-dobijeno), lako ga je prodati i lako odrzavati (treba imati na umu da kod nas ipak vecina ljudi nema para). ta situacija je duboko ukorijenjena u svijest ljudi , i oni i kad dodju do para opet idu za Golfom, dok sa druge strane ima puno auta koja su slicnih, istih, ili vecih kvaliteta.
Dakle, objektivan sud najbolje mogu davati ljudi koji zive vani, pa jedna familija ima mogucnost da ima nekoliko auta. Tada se moze napraviti poredjenje.

Ovo je post koji sam preuzeo sa jednog od Cad foruma, prilicno iscrpan i kvalitetan text. Bilo bih super kada bi i na ovome forumu bilo vise ovakvih postova umjesto sveucestalijih "nadmudrivanja". Text je nazalost na Engleskom mada mislim da ce a vecina zainteresovanih forumasa nekako skontati.
" Year: 2007
Model: 2.5L Rabbit 2 Door
Colour: UniBlack
Options: Winter Conveinience Package+ Alloy Wheels + ESP + Sunroof + Monster Mats + Premium Radio with 6 CD Changer
Mods: OEM Votex Ground Effects Kits + Stubby Antenna
Out The Door Price: $29,075 Canadian
Interior
The interior is quite a sight really. The dashboard is simple yet stylish in a VW mannor. 40% of the dash is somewhat of a rubberish material that is soft to touch and pressable. The rest is a nice looking plastic that's under the radar and doesn't appear cheap like the Rabbit's competition. I would have prefered the e-brake to be a little more desirerable, it's just plastic.
The seats are very comfortable, after a 600km trip I found my self almost ready to go to sleep. They are slightly bolstered and the seating position is just right. The cloth on the seats is very good. The pattern is simple yet elegant.
My favorite part of the interior would have to be the guages at night. With soft blue lighting on the speedo and tach and red needles, it looks sporty enough but doesn't scream "lame!" and doesn't hurt the eyes on those tired nights.
All the buttons are placed rather nicely, it takes about 20 minutes before you memorize where everything is.
The 5-Speed shifter is sporty. With a nice black boot surrounded by a brushed aluminum ring, at night it's red due to the little lights on the sunroof console.
All the way around you have somewhat of a greyish carbon fibre strip that follows the dash from door to door, I thought it was a nice touch. I also love the door handles which are brusghed aluminum.
Radio
I found the radio OK. The in dash 6 CD Changer is nice and efficient. It even displays song names and artist on MP3 playback CDs. The sound quality is great down low, but it's in need of a subwoofer and amp for those more inclined to turn it up a bit. The controls are nicely laid out, I really like the turn buttons for volume and tuning radio as opposed to the standard radio.
Room
The Rabbit is odd. From the outside you think "small car, no space" but it tricks you. The inside is mind boggling in the sense that there is so much room. The head room in very good, and the back seats are spacious as well as two friends of mind said so after a long trip.
The trunk is huge also, lots of room for a fall car to pack away groceries or even move some large objects from time to time. It has more room them a B6 Passat, which is a bigger car by far. One of the coolest feature is opening the trunk by pressing the VW emblem in the back. It's sure to get a compliment or two from on lookers. The trunk also contains all the tools you need for emergencies and even a full sized spare.
Handling
I was amazed at how well the Rabbit handled for such a heavy hatchback. At 2800lbs the Rabbit takes corners almost as well as the older MKII. It's a solid yet comforable ride and it lets you have confidence going into corners as he new independant rear suspension cuts back on body roll and makes you feel more go-kartish. The car should have been lowered a bit more, like it's euro brother is.
Motor
Many are quick to label the Rabbit as slow because of it'sd mediocre 0-60 time of 8 seconds. I on the other hand shrug at those people. Its not a fast car. That's not it's purpose. The purpose of the Rabbit was to be a comfortable city car and a formidable freeway fighter. I think this car is above average in terms of acceleration from 70-110, a critical point in your speedo where you'd most likely be passing someone. No need to downshift here as the Torque just carries you where ever in little time. The motor has a beuatiful agressive tone that in my opinion bests the 2.0T's. It's an almost VR6ish like roar that's accompinied by a meow like moan that the chain makes. Almost like a supercharger. You're bound to smile when you first rip it down a street. The engine is rather jerky between gears though, something VW should have corrected by using softer motor mounts.
0-60: 8secs
1/4: 16.0
Average Stock Dyno: 165hp 185tq
Those are some numbers I have compiled and averaged from all sorts of different owners.
Pros:
Good hwy acceleration
Beautiful sounding motor
Quality stylish interior
Feels more expensive then it really is
Sporty handling
Great standard features
Uses 87 octane
Beuatiful simple styling, nice touches
Cons:
MPG is not the greatest, but around what most call Average
Motor is jerky when shifting
Shifter is hard to put into gear sometimes, could be smoother
Radio likes to increase bass sometimes on it's own (can be fixed)
Fuel lines rattle (can be fixed)
Tires are noisey and poor quality (Mine are leaking from the valves)
I'm sure there are lots of other things I could say about it to help out, but i'll leave the rest for the other members here who can state how they feel about their Rabbit.
