Found my new DD!

[Bayer-Z28]

I have been searching for a DD for a while. Civic Si is 200hp NA, but a crazy looking interior, Cobalt SS is still a cavalier, Evo IX or X doesn't have the best gas mileage, and Now I've found the 2010 VW GTI. This darn thing makes just as much power as my 95 F-150. LOL!

I wanted a turbo 4 (not boggy like NA), 2dr, nice interior and not cheap, I've never had leather, a quiet ride, good gas mileage, a COMFORTABLE ride, and has enough power to have fun with.

My reasons and what I like:

Full leather Interior
Power Sunroof
Sport seats with Lumbar (NICE bolsters!)
6 Speed Auto with Sport mode and DSG Tip-Tronic Tap shift
HID Headlights
Dynaudio 300w Stereo
DVD NAV system
iPod interface
Aux audio input
Steering wheel audio controls
Onboard Bluetooth
Dual zone HVAC
Rear HVAC
Adjustable armrests (leather)
Rear seat armrests (leather) with rear trunk access cover

200hp intercooled turbo 4
18" Wheels

Seats four comfortably (incl driver)
Still has room in the trunk for whatever
Full sized spare
24/32mpg
Keeps it's value! Even the two or three year old models are still going for $21k-$28k (R32). This has Audi parts in it without the pricetag.

I mean seriously. Go price a GM sport coupe with these options and it will run you a lot more. I can get this car BRAND NEW for $28k. Who wants to spend more than that anyway. I've driven this car and even on the HW doing 80 you really don't feel it. You really don't feel 110 either. Such a pleasant change from the F-Body that really doesn't ride that great and you could feel it if you hit a pebble at 90 or 110. It's quiet inside, no annoying exhaust drone (truck has it too) everything is right where it should be. The door sil is at the right height to put your arm and grab the wheel.

If anyone is looking for a VERY nice daily driver, you should seriously consider this car! The salesman yesterday would not budge on the asking price so I told him I got some bills to take care of first before I take on payments again.

Here's some pics I got during the test drive yesterday.
