im gonna say 3rd gen, I like the looks alot but the new 4g is cool cuz its faster.


BTW, Ive only just started to like the VW's I always thought they were for girls or hippys but the GTI VR6 is definatly a mans car.

I agree with the 4th generation definately.

And i used to think the same thing about VWs until my sister got a 1.8t. Now i like them, and i LOVE the new GTI VR6

4th gen is the latest and greatest.

How can u say no to a 200hp, 6sp man pocket rocket??
Or the very tunable 1.8t??

Dont forget about that great looking interior

hrmm, i've had 2 A2's and now own an A3, i must say i like the body of the A3, but the power of the A2 16v is greatly missed. this 2.0l 8v just is not as quick, and it kills me

Yeah, MKIs are the best. They are the lightest handle engine swaps well.

give me an "A" give me a "4" what does that spell? I'd have to go with the A1 model amidst the craze over the newer generations...:silly2:
