Re: Should the 1.8T be an option for the Golf GL? (keoni004)
quote:[HR][/HR]GL + 1.8T = GTI - power options
The GL is the bargain-basement VW model. I do think it should be back on the GLS model, so there is a non-Jetta 4-door turbo in the lineup.[HR][/HR]
I agree. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
In my ideal world, I would like to see...
Upgraded 2.0 with 16v.
Golf GL 2 or 4 door with 2.0 or TDI. No other options.
Golf GLS 2 or 4 door with 2.0, TDI, 1.8T or VR6. Optional leather, sunroof, alloy wheels, etc.
Golf GLX 2 or 4 door with 1.8T or VR6. All options standard include Climatronic.
GTI exists as a PIO trimline with upgraded sport cloth seats, foglight, smoked taillights, alloy wheels and suspension.
This will not fly in US because not enough people buy Golfs to justify the tooling cost.
