Default Play it safe VW...

Nothing radical externally with the new mkV GTi...

2.0FSI Turbo should be nice though, as well as the improved handling...Interior is a step down from the last model from the ones I've seen in the flesh...

IIRC, I read some place that the 2.0T will be 4 valves, not 5, per cyl.

Default Not too bad, in my opinion.

Interesting that this test model has decent looking wheels and a lowered stance. I would be interested in one of these in a TDi, perhaps.
