ive had the same pain with VW which is why im asking this question. i would not ever consider VW again even if it was free, if i had not experienced the new ones.

my own observation from looking at many and driving a few 2008 models is that they are a ton better than they were. they appear to be much better made and the absolutely drive better....as i read the forums, i dont see any nightmarish scenarios or hear any horror stories about anything in particular with the new GTI or Rabbit

my 2000 golf had the transmission replaced the first week i bought it, with zero miles...and it went down hill from there. right from the beginning, there was a white cream under the oil cap which all the cars from that year and a few after, had. explained by dealer as normal... and my list could go on and on about problems which were common among many owners... to the car's credit though, i put 160K miles on it in 3 years


what im wondering now is, does anyone own a rabbit or know someone that regrets buying it
