Golf/GTI
An all-new version of Volkswagen's compact Golf hatchback and its sporty GTI derivative will debut in the second quarter of 2006, likely as a 2007 model, with many of the changes otherwise found on the new Jetta with which they share platforms and components. The current models remain available for a shortened run, with the base GL two-door and four-door GL TDI trim levels being deleted for 2006. Available in two- and four-door versions, the Golf comes with a standard 115-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that's mated to either a five-speed manual as standard or a four-speed automatic transmission. The GLS TDI sedan wrings extraordinary fuel economy out of its 100-horsepower, 1.9-liter turbodiesel engine, while a peppy 180-horsepower, 1.8-liter four-cylinder version powers the GTI. A sporty suspension delivers true European-style handling on a budget, with anti-lock brakes and front-side airbags standard. Options include VW's Electronic Stability Program, heated seats and windshield washers, leather seats, and rain-sensing wipers. For 2006, VW's Electronic Stability Program becomes standard on the GTI, along with 17-inch alloy wheels and tires, and heated seats and windshield washers.

This article is just more perf-hype. The article says "The...sedan wrings extraordinary fuel economy out of it's...engine...", but the writer couldn't be bothered to tell us what the miles per gallon is (which for MANY OF US is THE most important detail), or wether or not the information was available. Lame. If I'm going to read an article on a VW f-ing GOLF, you best beleive im not looking for engine and wheel specs, but HOW MUCH FUEL IT'S GOING TO BURN.
