The shape is growing on me after an initial 'urrrgh' phase.
What I do like the sound of is;
a) The chassis actually being up to the job of carrying a GTi badge and taking the fight to the focus (renound as the class-leader for chassis dynamics)
b) The DSG 'box from the V6 TT (I'm not old enough for a full auto yet, but I drive in london all day, so I wanna give my clutch foot a rest!!)
c) The range of engines - a 2 litre FSi Turbo with 200bhp? Yes please. A rumour of a 2.3L 5 cylinder diesel unit with more torque than you can shake a stick at? Don't mind if I do
I think if it can maintain the strengths of the Mk4 (build quality, comfort, overall pace) and deliver the driving dynamics the car mags are promising us, I think it will be an awesome, awesome car, and I for one will be getting one.
That is unless they announce a successor to the Corrado, in which case I'll cast it aside ion a heartbeat in favour of the coup!
