This car is great for someone like me who loves a small 4-door hatch but also likes having fun. This car really gets up and goes when you step on the gas and it's so much fun to jump on the highway and go for a ride. Although it's not the best on gas it's not bad. I get a lot of miles out of my tank and it's usually a good time. Even though the car is small you can actually fit quite a lot of stuff in the back end with the seats down. I moved clear across the country and fit the majority of my small stuff in this car. It has been an awesome journey since I've had this awesome car. Even though it did have one trip to the mechanic and cost quite a bit for the repair, it runs like new even after almost 80,000 miles.
Pros
- Ride and Handling: It handles great and even does pretty sweet burn outs for a front wheel drive car.
- Power: I love the way this car picks up when you step on the gas!
Cons
- Cost to Maintain: It's expensive to keep up with this car or really and VW but they're worth the money.
- Fuel Economy: I wish this car did a little better on gas. I guess I just have to get used to spending a little more and getting a little less out of each tank.
