Looks like some news on the Mk VI. I'm curious to see what "The GTI is also likely to get a power hike from its 2.0-litre turbocharged engine." means? Guess we'll have to wait and see...

Hopefully the quality of the car is not at stake!

hopefully they will get that manifold from the TT and start really pumpin some hp out of that 2.0

Didn't they do some 30th anniversary version in Europe with 230hp or something? I think the 2.0 has tons of room for improvement over the nice but conservative 200hp.

it definately does, and it shows. Look what 500 dollars can do for the car on some mild tuning and boost pressure increase. VW definately has the car conservatively tuned out of the box. I knew they were losing money on the MK V, it's a lot of car for the money, the materials used and fit and finish are way beyond that of any of it's competitors. Nice touches such as the headlight washers and such are expensive to manufacture, especially considering the price point and demographic that the GTI falls into. Just more reason to love and be amazed by our fasts. O0
