Don't like the wheel design on Facelift GTI.
The wheels on that infotainment screenshot remind me of the wheels on some Maseratis... and also of what I think is the best wheel option on the Fiat 500, haha.Don't like the wheel design on Facelift GTI.
I can't believe the 'effed up what was a well done implementation of digital gauges to center screen.Now that I've seen the MK8 close up a few times, I do really like the exterior, especially of the MK8-R. The grill area on this MK8.5 fixed what I disliked on the MK8 GTI. (WIIIIDE FISH SMILE LOL) So im 100% on-board with the MK8.5 GTI exterior, that spoiler on the GTI? Wha. Just sad they F'd up the interior and transmission. I can't wait for this "lets slap a big-ass ipad on the dash and call it a day" trend to F-off. I mean, the MK8 interior was going in the right direction, it just needed a few BUTTONS and more refinement to look "finished". (Look at the GLI)

It's not insane; it's expected. Everything is more expensive than it was a few years ago.The price of these new GTIs is also kinda insane, R-money a few years ago for a GTI.
You're not wrong thanks to our government printing money and destroying our currency since the 2020 "pandemic".It's not insane; it's expected. Everything is more expensive than it was a few years ago.
