Golf Gti 2017 Manual
I was shopping for a Golf R but have decided it’s just too expensive at $41,275 (US). I will have 2 kids in college the next couple of years so price matters. In the US I think the GTI sweet spot is the SE trim. You get the leather (plaid cloth is cool but leather is much easier to keep clean) and the Fender stereo plus the performance package for about $27,500 (my local dealers in Austin, TX). You miss out on auto climate control and nav but with CarPlay and Android Auto you don’t really need the Nav. You also have to manually adjust your seat. I would likely be the only driver so that’s not an issue for me.

A six-speed manual transmission is standard and a six-speed dual-clutch automatic. 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI Review; 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI Dealer Price Quotes. Mar 21, 2017 - The Volkswagen Golf GTI is not only a blast to throw around on a. The GTI sends its power to the front wheels via a 6-speed manual, or, in this.
I noticed a red manual GLI at a dealer for a little over $21K. I could almost live with that. I am undecided between the GTI and Golf R.
I have a 2015 GTI Autobahn at the moment and love it. My lease is almost up, so time to change. If had much more expensive cars in the past, like Audi S4’s in the V8 days, but this little GTI is amazing.

If the Golf R had a sunroof, it would be my choice. I was hoping that the 2018 would have one, but sadly it won’t here in Canada. I would go with the performance GTI and add the leather and the dynamic suspension, which I find pretty cool.
This brings the price up to almost the same cost as an R, but I think the sunroof and interior light you get, is more important to me than the added power and all wheel drive. I wish The Canadian version had the sunroof like the European one does. Anyone else agree? I agree with you about the sunroof it’s pretty disappointing but definitely not a deal breaker in my opinion. The performance package and the special exhaust that you can get in Europe only is a piss off for me.but You get nice blue interior ambient lighting in the R as to why I’m getting mine with the lapiz blue colour.
I took a GTI 220 HP and a golf R 292 HP for a test drive back to back hands-down the R wins me over. Front wheel drive is pretty good in the winter but all wheel drive is that much better.
It’s the GTI with a bit more sophistication and it should be commended for because it’s dam good. I wanted to thank you for this review. Especially since you compared it directly to th GLI in your review of that car on Jalopnik. I bought a GLI for my son in December but he has ended up driving my Jeep Wrangler so I finally relented and gave him that.
I liked the GLI with the DSG but after reading your review I decided to go out and drive a GTI. After doing so I went out and bought a 2017 GTI SE with a manual. I live in the US (Texas) and paid $27,000 for it. In some ways I prefer the handling of the GLI, but I think that’s just a function of the longer wheelbase. I would love to compare the two with the same tires. The GTI is noticeably faster and is way more engaging with the manual.
I think a GLI with the manual would be really fun. The GTI is definitely punchier. I really notice the torque difference.
Mine came with all season Pirelli P7s. I don’t plan to mod the car much, if at all, but I may put some Pilot Sports on it. The whole car feels significantly more solid than the GLI and also feels quite a bit nicer. The seats are really good compared to the GLI. The Fender stereo with the sub sounds a lot better than the subless version in the GLI. I don’t mind the manual seats at all as I’m the only driver so I rarely change them. The manual is very slick.

2017 Golf Gti Manual Review
I had a Fiat 500 Abarth in 2013 and the shifter on that car was frustrating and rubbery. This one is the complete opposite. No complaints at all about the car so far. I am really having fun with it. My wife is driving the GLI and enjoys that.
Kudos to VW for building both of these cars. I traded in a diesel truck that cost more than both VWs put together. I haven’t missed it at all. Thanks again.

I’m enjoying your reviews. I don’t think I had seen any of yours before the one you did for the Golf R.
I really wanted that but I have two kids in college so it was hard to justify the money. After driving the GTI for a few days I am happy with the choice. Most of time I wouldn’t notice the difference. For $15,000 less.
