Which Golf trim does Edmunds recommend?
There's only one trim, so your Golf decisions boil down to which of six colors to get and which transmission you want. If you desire more features, you'll have to upgrade to the sporty Golf GTI. Its base S trim approximates Golf TSI equipment, with upper trims adding touches such as leather seating and navigation.
