What does everyone think about the new rabbit? I think its a cool car, especially for the price. There really isn’t any german car that is in the price range and I think this could compete with the HHR/Caliber and some of the other subcompacts to do very well, I just wish it was lighter ☹ [http://www.vw.com/rabbit/index.html](http://www.vw.com/rabbit/index.html) ![http://www.autobytel.com/images/2007/Volkswagen/AllNew_Golf/400/2007_Volkswagen_AllNew_Golf_exfrpass34.jpg](http://www.autobytel.com/images/2007/Volkswagen/AllNew_Golf/400/2007_Volkswagen_AllNew_Golf_exfrpass34.jpg) ---
