All for all best car for the value. My 91 GTI 16v came with BBS RM wheels that are extremely rare, Recaro seats, Quad headlamp grill, big flairs, close ratio tranny, and 2.0 16v engine. This car handles like it is on rails, it is extremely quick, really reliable and it is a blast to drive each time I get in it. In my opinion, much, much better than the Japanese …

1992 Volkswagen GTI 16V 2dr Hatchback

Why the Golf and cars like it aren't the best selling cars in the U.S. I don't understand.
