19" phaeton wheels!! (and don’t forget to buy the used suspension and sway bars from a stock GTI for almost nothing and put them on your car) ![http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l221/andrew1237/GTi.jpg](http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l221/andrew1237/GTi.jpg) ---

BAHAHAHAHAH!!! the GTI is NOT worth it over the rabbit. I had a GTI all loaded up. Sold it and got a rabbit. The rabbit comes in at a smooth $15k out the door… GTI starts at 23ish… and can go all the way up to above 30k… $5k my ass. ---

invoice on the base 2 door is like 16,200. Out the door w/ tax @ 15 and you’d be doing REALLY REALLY REALLY good. Like 3000 below invoice. invoice on the 4 door is about 2000 more. ---

the friend who got one earlier this year had the dealer “split holdback with him” and paid 15,xxx for a new 08 2 door 5 speed with heated seats etc… (but he leased over 3 years for like $220/mo, nothing down, sign and drive) and when I say you can buy the GTI parts from people who have upgraded for cheap, I mean really cheap, like $200-$400 for all the suspension stuff and swaybars… I find the rabbit more fun to drive around town because it has so much more torque available down low. ---

Well you got a really good deal on your rabbit. The base gti is way more loaded up than a rabbit. I paid 21K for mine…where a rabbit would have been like 16k ---

comparing your deal on a GTI to sticker on a rabbit is just not fair. ---

> [@Haenszel](#): > > mine was $15,350 and I didn’t haggle at all…? Yeah, but yours is a 2 door, right? And no sales tax because you traded in your gti, so it’s not that crazy. My 4 door is 18 out the door with 2K higher on trade than anywhere else. ---

Newman have you gone and test drove one yet? Test drive it and if you like it then search around for pricing. I \<3 my GTI for a DD and I test drove at least a dozen other cars. I was given an auto Rabbit for a loaner car the one day when I was getting an iPod dock added from the dealer and I don’t think I could handle driving the Rabbit as a DD but then again it was a base featureless Rabbit and auto. ---
