+ARMYTRIX Please do, I own a GTI and these are sort of a bitch to get a good sound out of.

@aidin67 8 лет назад

The Mk7 GTI makes stupid power with a tune compared to other hot hatches. Way underrated from factory.

@jaskdavis 8 лет назад

+Rucifel Until the Focus RS comes out lol you getting one since you have an ST now?

@aidin67 8 лет назад

Jason Davis No haha. I'm a college student. The ST1 is basically maxing my budget as it is.

@smgs921 8 лет назад

vw are always underrated on power from factory. usually the rated bhp is actually the whp

@eliruben123 8 лет назад

+Jason Davis would like to see the Focus RS run a 0-60 in 3.8 with just a tune and no other mods.... Mk7 Golf R does ;)

@jaskdavis 8 лет назад

+eliruben123 hmmm maybe. the golf R is a serious machine, but since the RS runs 0-60 stock in 4.7sec and the Mustang ecoboost has the same engine and gets +50hp, 50tq from a 93 tune it could be possible...

@g60adam 8 лет назад

Sold my 12' STI Limited for a 16' GTI Performance Pack. Best decision I ever made.

@carsaregood911 8 лет назад

+Adam Simpson Wow! I'm curious to know why? I've thought about going to a WRX from my MK6 GTI

@g60adam 8 лет назад

+Imad S Big reason was MPG. The STI was a fuel pig. And I just couldn't get over the terrible interior, that's where you spend your time. But I loved the AWD and the STI power. But the forums scared me about the ringlands, and always monitoring knock. I would always worry when I drove it. The GTI is such a fun car to drive. And just a stage 1 will take it close to 300hp.

@g60adam 8 лет назад

+TheXenon Nice intellectual comment. Now go back greeting ppl at Walmart.

@carsaregood911 8 лет назад

Adam Simpson Huh interesting, I've worried about the ringland issue but didn't think it was so prevalent. Perhaps I should stay away or go for the FA motor WRX. Cheers bud.

@g60adam 8 лет назад

+Imad S Yeah you lurk on the forums and see stg 2 ppl either spinning bearings or blowing ringlands. And as much as I told myself that it wouldn't happen to me, it was still in the back of my head. I do miss it. But the GTI felt right at this time of my life👍🏻

@eliruben123 8 лет назад

Fun fact: the Mk7's are so quiet and sound so weird because the turbo is literally bolted to the head. The more you know :)

@seansmile 8 лет назад

Thanks didn't know that man

@chasegold19 8 лет назад

+eliruben123 Today I learned

@doublexero 8 лет назад

+eliruben123 Good to know! I'm guessing similar to the ST with their "headifold"? I love my FoST, just with it sounded a bit different, haha.

@KnuckleCuts 8 лет назад

+CJ Ray yep, just like fords headifold

@kolourblind3124 6 лет назад

Knowing is half the battle! GI JOSE!

@DCassidy42 7 лет назад

I own the MK7 gti and it is the definition of having your cake and eating it too. Practical, fuel efficient, fast, comfortable, refined, tune-able, looks great, flies under the radar, if you need awd the golf R is an option too. Most cars are really good at one or two things but the MK7 checks so many boxes off without huge compromise.

@jmccann6735 6 лет назад

DCassidy42 My man, you are lucky!!! Can't wait til I own a newer GTI. Like Volkswagen always built then for: the People. All-around such a brilliant vehicle!

@aidananchaya 6 лет назад

Good first car?

@brendanfogel4573 5 лет назад

DCassidy42 yes I was deciding between a wrx and a gti and the gti is just a great complete car. The wrx isn’t that. Yes it’s a great platform but for a daily driver the gti is better

@Jaydenmerenda 8 лет назад

TheCocaColaManiac the current situation is only about the diesel car in america and america only. The r400 will come out as its a petrol (gas) car

@DoctaM3 8 лет назад

You know what I feel about these VeeDubs. Still looking fir an R or R32. Very practical and so much fun. Love the video 👍

@roochiecooch 8 лет назад

Love the videos. I admire the fact you do your best not to be biased toward any make or model. You seem to truly just enjoy driving all types of automobiles. I love that because it's so common to have fan boys who just stick to one brand or car. Keep it up man, lovin' all the reviews and looking forward to seeing your 240 finished up with that 2J!

@tcvu3463 7 лет назад

This was an awesome review. I really appreciate how level headed and logical you are throughout your videos! That alone makes me respect your opinion. I drove a 2016 gi a few months back and ordered one, it's been 'in transit' for 12 days. Hope it gets here soon, my 2 TDI's are going back.

@Arksintho 8 лет назад

@hc3807 2 года назад

@xSteppa 8 лет назад

My dad has one of these, honestly one of the best cars when you want a daily that's fast and fun. I love it

@joshuamauricio9397 8 лет назад

You kinda helped me out with my decision David, I'm having a hard time deciding between the st or the gti even after I test drove both! Thanks a lot! keep up the great work!! 👌

@TheErd1997 6 лет назад

I have a MK7 GTI that is APR Stage 2 as my daily. The amount of fun you can have in these cars is amazing and its still respectable and practical

@bradym6481 8 лет назад

Congrats on 400k subs. Won't be long before your at a half a MILLION!

@RousingEight05 8 лет назад

seriously.... these videos are the only things that keep me sane. And out of all the car review channels David does it best in my opinion.

@TheForzadrifter 8 лет назад

Got a nice chuckle during this video, my fiance overheard "300 wheel hp" and asked me, "what does that mean, is there fake horsepower?" She thought you said "real hp" hahah, good review David!

@allyc85 8 лет назад

I love my 2005, Mk5 Gti for all the reasons you have given for this latest version! An utterly brilliant all-rounder, which could sound so much better!

@nazz2406 2 года назад

Getting a 2015 GTI shipped to test drive and buy pretty soon. I'm stoked. There's so much more I wanna say but I'm stupid excited and can't wait to drive my first hot hatch and European car in general. Let's go dude!

@AADetailing 5 лет назад

HS tuning RSR clutch kit makes the clutch feel great. Highly recommended if you want that OEM+ feel. If you are looking to tune your car, the HS kit comes with a pressure plate that holds upwards of 400 TQ so slipping is not an issue.

@johnquinto5780 8 лет назад

I have had my mk6 gti for a little over a month and it is amazing.

@ericu1196 8 лет назад

I owned a stage 2 mk6 gti before I got my mk7 GTI and a tuned mk7 may be one of the best sport compacts ever. With Eurodyne tune the mk7 is a very fast car. Super nice inside and out and miraculous in the lack of any torque steer even with 385 lb ft... The engine sound is valvey for lack of a better term. it's different but adds some odd character as well. great review!

@mrgx91 8 лет назад

Great review David. I agree with everything you mentioned. I had an MK6 GLI which also had virtually no torque steer, and a ridiculously soft clutch. Biggest complaint about mine was that the clutch was weak, started to show signs of wear at 65k-75k with mostly highway miles. Supposedly a known issue with the MK6 GLI clutches. I can't speak for the MK7's however.

@WelshyAutomotive 8 лет назад

@ottodob 8 лет назад

Also, are the Euro LEDs wired up for the amber turn signals or are they just the regular reds?

@jtkent28 8 лет назад

I've got a '10 mk6 GTI. Best car I ever bought. Fast, fun & super practical. Still love driving it all the time. And though I plan to keep it for years to come I love how be just made a good thing better with the mk7 : )

@rtg3333 8 лет назад

it's probably a cat fault, since its got a dp and I'm pretty sure unitronic stage 2 doesn't eliminate that code like other tunes do

@KnuckleCuts 8 лет назад

'MURICA! F* YEAH not even, I got a catless DP and no CEL from the tune

@rtg3333 8 лет назад

+GeeFK on a gti? I know for a fact on my mkvi I got a cat failure code when I installed my catless dp before I installed the spacers and did a eurodyne stage 2 tune

@duriel1993 8 лет назад

Nice review David! This will probably be one of my first cars, Idk, can't wait to find out in 3 to 4 years from now. I'm 14 btw, living in the state of New Jersey if anyone's curious.

@EllieVelli 8 лет назад

I fell in love with the GTI when I sold Volkswagens... Shit was so torquey stock... Cliché but the MK7 GTI is actually my favorite Volkswagen...

@rohanuva 8 лет назад

Which roads are these? I live in VA and have a MK6 gti. Would love to hoon it around this area.

@Kiekerr 8 лет назад

David is going to hit 1mil subs next year, I guarantee it.

@lvcsslacker 8 лет назад

did it have the performance package with the LSD?

@1999danie 8 лет назад

The reason the wheel doesn't torque steer is because the esp system has electric power steering and an amazing diff that when you go around a corner fast the motor increases electrical power unlike hydraulic with the increased power the steering wheel feels light and has lots of turning power and the diff is amazing at controlling under steer there's even an option on the vag com (ecu programming obd2 cable) to increase the steering torque steer compensation

@UkrGamerHD 5 лет назад

What Kind of Springs on it?

@0000mte 8 лет назад

+ThatDudeInBlue is it a supercharger kicking in before the turbo giving it that small turbo feel ?

@HuxTusky 8 лет назад

Hey David could you try to find an 05-07 Subaru Legacy GT or Spec B. or any Forester XT to review? Love your videos and I'm a huge Subaru guy. And no 8+ Subaru's is not enough for me. Keep doing what you're doing and DON'T STOP!

@MrMohammed420 8 лет назад

7:10 "with the 6 speed can get up to 40 mpg.....Wot" haha that cracked me up

@wadehart123 8 лет назад

favorite is the mk2 with a vr6 swap, crazy fun to drive in the mountains

@94BrunoO 8 лет назад

Anyone with a MK4 can advise me some springs? Looking for something with an even drop and a little wheel gap.

@xtrekrex 8 лет назад

Please review the new Golf R! I'm really thinking about getting that car. That or the new Focus RS.

@Ryan2588 8 лет назад

It was either an ST or a GTI when I was looking. Ford is my favorite American car brand, but I always wanted a GTI, and the mk7 impressed me more. Still love the ST.

@travisproteau8285 8 лет назад

Did it have a check engine light?

@Lamboking7 8 лет назад

David i wish your would do a review of a MK5 gti all done up like this one :(

@nicholasbaldwin1674 8 лет назад

I picked the Focus ST. I drove both and I didn't like the practical aspects of the GTI. the 4 DOOR was a after thought and the car has no trunk! the Focus ST is a bigger car by inches and has a much more usable trunk, back seats and overall room throughout. the interior is also nicer and refined in the ST. just my opinion. the VW can make more power per dollar but not the only thing I look for in a car. also liked that I was buying American and not German. Great review David!

Love this mk7 my brother has the same gti same color, black badges also. He has H and R Springs which he still needs to install, but the car is so damn fast compared to the mk6 plus you can make more power pretty easy with all these parts avalible it's such a dope car

@GoWailord 3 года назад

I just traded my 2017 Elantra Sport in for a cornflower blue 2019 GTI Rabbit Edition w/ DSG and holy shit do I love this car. All I've done so far is a drop-in K&N and removed the snow guard from the airbox, perfect amount of induction sound and blow-off. Can't wait to get a downpipe and a tune when I can afford to

@OhMyKMPR 8 лет назад

Do you guys in the US have the Mk7 R? It's a 300hp AWD version of the Golf. Really fun and you can get with a manual or the DSG. On a side note. I drive a 1.2TSI Mk7 with just 85hp (sadly) but it's a great daily driver. I used it to move to university and with the rear seats folded I got so much stuff in there it's just incredible. 85hp isn't a lot but the fuel economy is insane. I got about 30mpg going flat out on the Autobahn at 110mph(180kmh) which is this cars top speed. Very cool little car.
