http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=136067   WOLFSBURG, Germany — Volkswagen headquarters has told Inside Line that the all-new sixth-generation GTI and Rabbit will go on sale in the U.S. by early September 2009. The new models start production for North America in late June. European buyers started taking delivery of the new Golf/Rabbit last month and will get the GTI next summer.

The GT Diesel will be for those who like Diesel and sport. No word on when the Twin turbo GTD will come out. That is basically the Diesel GTi. The new Rabbit will move upmarket and won't be an entry level car due to costs. It will get nicer equipment like the RNS-510 touch screen HDD Navigation system.

Replying to: rv65 (Dec 15, 2008 5:54 pm) The new Rabbit should also have factory iPod integration via the MDI and the special cable. It shows song info and it integrates the iPod like an iPod. The MDI only works on the RNS-510 but the RCD-510 and RCD-310 both work with it. The RCD-510 is like a non nav RNS-510 with no hard drive and a built in CD changer. The current crop of non nav radios don't support the MDI. VW is commited to bringing next generation radios by 2010 model year or soon with the RNS-510 already being out.
