    2008 Volkswagen Golf GTI 2.0T 2-Door FWD Review
    David says:
    Best car I ever owned, 7th VW. Quick, handles great and was very reliable. One of the last manual performance coupes available, Sorry that they will no longer be available in a 2-door after 2016. A 2015 or 2016 2-door manual will probably be my next car.

    Back Seats Ranked 2012 Cadillac CTS Coupe worse.
    "Because of the awesome front seat legroom you dont have to have them all the way back in order to be comfortable. This means better legroom for back seat passengers."
    Would Buy Ranked 2012 Cadillac CTS Coupe better.
    "The Cadillac has less road noise than the GTI...and it looks great!"

    The GTI line peaked at the mk7.5 model in terms of overall value. It’s got the best silhouette and cabin design in my opinion. And there’s plenty of technology to pair with the exceptional driving exp... Read More
