2008 Volkswagen GTI 2.0T Hatchback Sedan 4D Standard Features
2008 Volkswagen GTI
KBB.com Review
A powerful, flexible engine combined with flat, responsive handling, a lot of grip in the corners and front-wheel-drive predictability make the 2008 Volkswagen GTI a joy to drive enthusiastically wherever appropriate.
While the 2008 Volkswagen GTI out-muscles the new Civic Si, MINI Cooper S and Mazda3 s, it’s also 400 to 600 pounds heavier than those competitors. In fact, this biggest GTI ever weighs as much as Volkswagen’s Passat midsize sedan. The extra weight isn’t readily apparent, but it’s certainly no advantage, either.
