I've got a '24 GTI S w/DSG. 24k miles on the clock. No issues. There is no reason whatsoever to purchase any trim level beyond the S. It is the essence of a GTI. It is simple perfection for its assigned mission.

I would recommend this car with the DSG trans, my experience with the 2023 Golf R 6 speed manual was not good, the clutch was not consistent and the poor linkage igets on the way during quick shfting. I now have the 2024 Golf R with DSG

Does it have a vibration feeling when you drive over 70mh? From steer wheel, floor, pedal?

[gayseverin]

Harmana тоже нет, что у вас за тачки?))

All those stickers! Great review hoped it was the 6speed shocked it looks fun as well! Nice job

[MWchugs]

Is this worth it than the R. Should I pay the extra 15 k for the R. I don’t live in winter climate but in Florida

[The_Stick]

Very nice review. Any plans on reviewing the Golf R?

[rve]

bring back physical buttons for steering wheel controls and climate controls and i'm sold

This is the base S Trim. It’s what I have & think it’s the best value out there, along with the Mazda3 Carbon Trim.

But they’re completely different cars. I much prefer the GTI.

Whoever designed the interior has never had kids. You can’t put cloth on the back of those front seats! The kids’ feet will be all over them and they’ll quickly be ruined. They used to put leatherette back there. Not sure why they changed. 🤷🏻

There is no engine cover because VW had to remove them because of a possible fire risk.

[perobiendebien]

It has no sense pay for this car with known problem of possible fire due to the cover engine...ridiculous.
