		The heart of the 2006 GTI is Volkswagen’s new and highly regarded 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 200 hp at 5,100 to 6,000 revolutions per minute and 207 ft.-lbs.
		At the rear, the GTI badge, aligning to the driver’s side, is attached to the hatch door; dual chrome tail pipes add more evidence to the car’s performance intentions along with the aggressive swath of the rear spoiler with an integrated, highly visible rear brake light, bumper valence and sophisticated, jewel-like round rear tail lamps.
		GTI enthusiasts should feel at home behind the wheel of the new GTI, which again advances the purity of the GTI concept but in a modern and sophisticated execution.

	2002 Volkswagen GTI - The Car Connection
		Volkswagen's GTI hatchback sport coupe gets a jump in output as well as a reduction in price and a fix for its confusing nomenclature for the 2002 model year.
		It's now just "GTI," with either the bumped-up 180-hp turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine ($18,910) or, soon to come, a new, notably improved VR6 version which will develop around 200 hp when it is released during the 2002 calendar year.
		The market niche in which the GTI competes is very tight these days, with so many excellent, fun-to-drive and well-equipped compact sport coupes and sedans available for $18,000 to $22,000 that VW really had no choice here.

	Volkswagen GTI - Short Take Road Tests - Car and Driver - December 2005
		The GTI is the third of three cars to trickle into the U.S. that share the same platform from the Volkswagen/Audi juggernaut.
		The interior of the GTI is nearly identical to the GLI's, and although the all-fl look is dull, the plastics appear to be high quality.
		VW says the GTI will cost "thousands less" than those models, but a 2005 GTI with the 200-hp VR6 started at 23K, and we don't think the '06 will be less than that.

	2006 Volkswagen GTI Review, Prices, Photos: New Car Test Drive
		Launched in mid 1970s in Europe, the Volkswagen GTI made its American debut a few years later and became the original pocket rocket, a nimble, dynamic, compact vehicle that did for imports what muscle cars had done for Detroit a decade earlier.
		The GTI draws its energy from Volkswagen's smaller and lighter 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which has been turbocharged to boost its output to 200 horsepower and to 207 pound-feet of torque, with peak torque holding steady all the way from 1800 to 5000 rpm.
		Volkswagen's new GTI is neither the least expensive nor showiest styled vehicle in its category.

	2002 Volkswagen GTI - The Car Connection
		Many Volkswagens have such a long clutch stroke that my knee is hitting the steering wheel by the time the gears engage.
		The GTI could be a little more precise with the gearshift, but it's not nearly as squishy as its granddaddies.
		The GTI's interior, from the glowing blue gauges to the solid fl shifter, are just as good as the stuff VW uses in its more expensive cars like the $32,000 Passat and has nearly the same integrity as the confines of VW's more expensive Audi sports luxury cars.

	2006 Volkswagen GTI Preview
		Which is fitting, as the 2006 GTI is a complete makeover of VW's long-running hot hatchback, and a fitting tribute to the original U.S.-market Rabbit GTI of 1983.
		As in all GTIs since the beginning, the front suspension is by MacPherson struts, but the torsion beam axle found in the rear of all previous models has finally been replaced by a fully-independent multilink system.
		Stylistically, the new GTI is evolutionary, with the most noticeable difference from the previous generation at the front in the form of VW's new-look grille treatment.

	IGN: Volkswagen GTI (2005)
		The GTI has become something of an icon for VW, as it is considered by many to be the sporty Volkswagen.
		While the current GTI isn't the pure-bred sports machine of its early 80's forefathers, it is a lot more luxurious.
		All in all, the GTI is a great hot hatch as it is. But with the next generation of GTI just around the corner -- bigger engine and all -- we can't help but think that VW fans would be better off waiting for the next gen cars to come out.

		The GTI's 2.0-liter powerplant is a high-tech handbag, complete with dual overhead cams, four valves per cylinder, inter-cooled turbo, drive-by-wire throttle and FSI direct injection.
		Once you get used to the GTI's adhesive tenacity, once you accept the fact that the understeer slide justain'tgonnahappen.com, only the cleanliness of your license, children on board and the stupidity of fellow road users prevent you from endless adrenal indulgence.
		And while there's no question that the new GTI represents a welcome return to form for cash-strapped pistonheads, the jury is out on the reliability part of the practicality equation.

		Combine that with an easily heat-soaked intercooler and getting the GTI moving on a hot day is a choice between stalling and wheelspin (or bogging if the electronic stability control isn't disabled).
		The power helped the GTI tie with the Mazdaspeed Protegé for third quickest quarter-mile elapsed time but the GTI was slightly faster (91.8 mph vs. 89.4 mph) through the traps.
		In all, the GTI is a fundamentally good package taken to new lows by an overabundance of luxury.

		In bringing on the new Volkswagen GTI, retro styling alone isn’t the way to reconnect with fans of the original — after all, the Golf/Rabbit on which it was based was essentially just a box.
		But what makes this GTI the real deal is the chassis and, most important, what’s under the hood.
		The only problem is the wait; we’ll see a new Jetta in the States before the GTI, due in part to the fact that all GTI and Golfs are now being built in Germany, rather than in Mexico.
