What do you like about 2008 Volkswagen GTI?
Incredibly responsive, DSG with paddle shifters is a wonder, seats are just great, and absolute ball to drive.... and completely practical. Great mileage, amazingly comfortable, quiet and safe.

How would you improve 2008 Volkswagen GTI?
Not sure that's possible. I drove an original in 1983, and absolutely loved it. This car is a huge improvement in every respect.

2008 Volkswagen GTI Review:
IF driving for you is a utilitarian activity, a mere means of getting from point A to point B, then this car is not for you. If, however, driving can be a pastime, if the drive to your place at the beach or in the mountains, or to work, can be the best part of the day for you, then this is your car. And if you are one of those who love to drive, unless you are ready to buy, DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR. If you love to drive, and then drive this car, you will simply have to have one. Believe me; I know from personal experience.
Driving this car at speed is about the most fun you can have that doesn’t involve the removal of clothing.
The key to all the fun is the responsiveness of everything in the car.... the engine, the steering, the DSG, even the power windows, which have a one-touch UP feature, something I'd not seen before. In this car, be careful what you think, because what you think happens immediately.
