they might be superior on all aspect, but after driving a mk5 jetta for a week, i found it to be less fun then the mk4, a LOT less the the mk3 and the mk2 ...
now i know the gti is a totally different game but nonetheless
dunno, i found they kinda added the japanese driving factor to it ! it feeled cheaper then what im used with VW, interior wise
but i agree the mk6 golf looks dead sexy !!
I had the same feeling while trying the new B8 Audi a4, it felt weird, just like they decreased interior overall quality and feel
maybe im starting to get old school again ?? i need to get one of those mk2 again lol, or a nice e30
