The 2011 Volkswagen GTI is a 2-door, 5-passenger sports coupe, available in two trims, the 1.8T and the VR6. The new GTI boasts a top speed of 145mph and will hit 62mph from rest in just 7.2 seconds on the six-speed manual version combining for the first time FSI technology with a turbo charger. This unique combination also gives the added benefit of excellent fuel consumption for a hot hatch, averaging 35mpg.
The newest Golf has 3 different models you have the GTI, GTD, and the R I would personally buy the GTI I have always preferred the shape of the GTI and its still a great looking car the newest Golf GTI has a selection of two different engines for you to choose from the TSI petrol 6 speed manual gearbox or you can get exactly the same engine but with the DSG auto gearbox.
