Replying to: carfanatic007 (Jul 22, 2007 4:30 pm) long time no post fanboy!   if the si is the most fun in YOUR OPINION, how is it also the 'best by far'?
#1249 of 1379 SI Best by far by carfanatic007 Jul 23, 2007 (2:56 pm)
For those of you who don't comprehend, I will expl ain. I prefer the SI to the GTI, the MS3, the Mini cooper "S", the Nissan Sentra SER Spec V, etc. To me, the SI rocks. Just superior in all facets of driving. I'm sorry if you don't agree. Thanks.

Replying to: carfanatic007 (Jul 23, 2007 2:56 pm) I can understand it. That's why they make various cars...not all of us like the same things. Replies to this message: roadburner (Jul 23, 2007 6:40 pm)

Replying to: blueguydotcom (Jul 23, 2007 3:07 pm) I can understand it. That's why they make various cars...not all of us like the same things.   Agreed. I went with the Mazdaspeed3; I loved the MCS JCW but I needed a larger rear seat. The Si was OK, but I already have one car that needs to be wound tight in order to make brisk progress. The GTI had the best interior but I didn't want a sunroof and the local VW dealer wasn't enthusiastic about special ordering a car. So far I love the MS3, and I'll probably keep it for a few years, or at least until BMW sticks the twin turbo diesel in the 1er...

Replying to: carfanatic007 (Jul 23, 2007 2:56 pm) if i was a uneducated person with regards to the cars in this segment, i would have no clue why you think the si is better, because you never give any real reasons.   BUT, being a honda enthusiast (as well as a vw enthusiast), i CAN figure out MAYBE why you do enjoy it. But i also remember the days when i pledged loyalty to only one car and couldn't see the good in others. You obviously have not gotten to this point.   price and long term relaiability aside, its actually the gti that probably does everything good and not one thing amazing (except for torque everywhere on the rev range and a flawless interior), as oppossed to the si or ms3 which specialize in certian things.   again something you probably wont understand.

Replying to: eldaino (Jul 24, 2007 5:10 am) Whether or not eldaino understands my reasoning for making a post is not relevent. I simply made a comment. Actually, I have owned 3 VW GTI's in the past and really like them but for there poor reliability. Replies to this message: eldaino (Aug 05, 2007 6:57 pm)

Replying to: carfanatic007 (Aug 05, 2007 5:31 pm) why are referring to me in the third person?   and no, its not irrelevant, its actually very central to understanding some of the things you type on this website.

Let's keep this about the cars and steer the conversation away from talking about each other please.
#1256 of 1379 DSG makes the GTI by andres3 Aug 07, 2007 (9:05 pm)
about .3 seconds faster to 60 MPH, and is a blast to drive, very fun.
#1257 of 1379 Re: Is this VW engine in our near future? [eldaino] by davert Aug 08, 2007 (10:02 am)
Replying to: eldaino (Jun 27, 2007 10:08 am) Volkswagen GTI cornering seems just fine. Rabbit will probably be very similar though less busy since the wheels/tires will be more pragmatically sized. With the horsepower of the regular Rabbit comes extra weight - I wonder how much faster it is compared to the original? ... my own GTI impressions are in this Volkswagen GTI car review.
