Just try to find another Japanese competitor with the same kind of engine for less money. Then we can compare.
= if you take away the turbo, TOYOTA COROLLA ( 1.8 L engine ), but a Corolla feels like a crap-box by comparison.
The higher profile 16-inch tires soak up the road and offer nearly zero road noise, those wishing for the 15-inch tires on the base should try the 16s because they are surprisingly smooth and quiet.
this is then quickly followed by Doesn't take much to run up the price apparently.
since 16" tires are more expensive, it adds to the base car's price.
I’ve never been a huge Golf fan
: VW engines are NOT know for their long-term reliability and durability, and probably very few readers here are driving a 12 year old VW as his every-day driver. 'WELCOME TO GERMAN CARS' Welcome to German cars.
Of course most people buying a Golf are looking for the hatchback practicality and the Golf delivers that as well.
plus = the Golf really is a super quiet highway cruiser and you can easily drive it all day and get out feeling refreshed. The Germans really do have that figured out and they provide that same luxury car feeling and poise even in their inexpensive compact “everyday” cars.
= THAT IS TRUE, it really is a nice quiet luxury car at an entry level price.
The only annoying part is the huge tonneau cover that kind of gets in the way
What the heck do people need with a Tonneau cover? I mean, no one breaks into cars anymore, so why even bother using one of those things, just let things sit out in the open and make life easier.
great visibility in the Golf
= Yes, that is because the windows are very low, offering a great 'greenhouse' effect, not a 'bathtub' feeling like you get in an Acura MDX.
