[QUOTE="tablelamp, post: 828826, member: 17253"] Who says Golf Gti is for people 30 years +. The target market for the original golf gti's is for young working class people/yuppies. Unfortunately it is expensive in Malaysia. In terms of class, it is waaay above the dc5. No doubt the dc5 is probably faster on a drag race if you pit them both on the track. How often do you do that anyway? To put it in Jeremy Clarkson's perspective. When you go for dinner at a fancy restaurant with your gf/inlaws/parents etc... you'll be glad you're in the gti When you travel around town in jams...you'll be glad you're in the comfort of the gti..and apparently the gti is extremely torquey on the lower range with max power coming in around 2k+ rpm which means it is excellant for town driving with loads of traffic light stops When you go clubbing...you'll be equally as cool in the gti as in the dc5 When you're travelling long distance journeys on the highway... you're still able to play with the big boys with 198bhp under the hood. Get a chip and tuned it to 240ish bhp if you want. At least you don't need an earplug as opposed to the dc5 when revving to high rpm. when you go tapow char kuey teow, the gti will still will work well without you standing out like a poser. The Gti is also less popular a target for car thieves as opposed to the dc5. Can you also think of a better sleeper car? in a nutshell, i think you'll have waaaay more fun with the golf as opposed to the dc5. The gti will impress more people than the dc5 unless you're only interested in hard core petrolheads. :P Not saying the dc 5 is not a good car, in fact it's a brilliant car, just that I think the gti gives a more pleasurable owner experience. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
