Overview
The Volkswagen GTI, which was based on the popular Golf hatchback, received very few and very minor upgrades for 1992. It was still available in two versions -- the base GTI sports package, and the GTI 16V sports package with a more powerful engine.
About the only noticeable upgrade was the fact that the radio on both models turned off with the ignition key, so drivers no longer had to turn it off using a control knob on the radio itself.
The base GTI came with a 1.8-liter inline 4-cylinder powerplant that generated 100 horsepower, while the GTI 16V trim package dropped in a 2.0-liter double-overhead-cam 4-cylinder engine and goosed horsepower up to 134. Both versions of the GTI came with a five-speed manual overdrive transmission as standard equipment; an automatic transmission was available as an option.
Standard features for the GTI included power brakes, power steering, bucket seats, alloy wheels, a rear window defroster, foglights, a tilt steering wheel, and a tachometer. The GTI 16V added Recaro seats and 15-inch wheels, among other features. In addition to the automatic transmission, optional equipment included air conditioning, a sunroof, and a cassette player.
The GTI got positive marks from drivers for its high-powered performance, its handling, its comfort, and its European styling. The Recaro seats and interior were noted as being particularly comfortable. On the negative side, drivers noted that repairs, when needed, could be expensive, and some specifically pointed out problems with the car's electical system.

I have the 2.0 8v GTi, good solid motor, pretty quick, handles amazingly well, even in the wet.

This car's got tons of power once you get it up to highway speeds. When you floor the gas, it's like a drug. You can't get enough of it. On top of that, it sounds nasty as hell! The vr6 engine conversion made a huge difference, and also makes it a sleeper for people who don't know what it is!

There is nothing to dislike about this light, turn hugging, torque spitting sleeping beast. Althought breaks could use some aftermarket work. Fun car to drive. Big bumper set-up with mud flaps make for dropped wide body look. Not your everyday obnoxious sounding 4 banger! turns heads too.

Recaro seats are perfection. handles amazing (insane since I added Coilovers and Neuspeed sways/roll bars). TT exhaust is meaty. Classic GTI styling. Much cooler than every VW that has been released after this car (Corrado exception 92-94). Roomy, Rides Nice, Sounds Nice... is there a better car? Best GTI made. Modern Classic that will be worth mucho bucks soon.
