6th gear is only used to help increase mpg. This car doesn't have one because the 1.8tsi gets great mpg as it is. Another gear would cost more and be a little heavier and not worth the price you get out of it in mpg with this particular engine.

Thanks for posting. There aren't any VW Golf TSI manual transmission reviews online. So, again, thanks. Also, think this is one of the few manual turbo's on the market. Don't really see that combo being offered much. So hat's off to VW for offering efficient performance engines. Only real negative is the manual drivers seat. Again, power drivers seats aren't something that manufacturer's are offering, not even as an option for certain models. Wonder why? I mean, if the buyer is willing to pay for a power driver's seat, why not offer it?

Danny, I just bought a 2017 Golf S identical to yours -- platinum gray and manual transmission. I couldn't be happier. And actually, I think the base model is incredible. I didn't really notice it to be that much slower than the GTI, which I also test drove prior to purchasing the Golf S, and it is much more practical for city streets, absorbing bumps much better than the GTI. I'm also impressed with fuel economy, not that much lower than my previous Golf TDI. Thanks for your review.

My parents have 2 2007 Jettta's and both have close to 100k and not one problem with either.. I keep 2 cars around and always have 1 of them be a Manual Transmission. I am 45 and always drove Manual only up until a few years ago when I added a Auto. I can't stop driving a stick but I find having a Auto for heavy traffic commuting is also nice, so the best of both worlds is what I am after.

Agreed. I have the 2015 Passat S manual, same engine. On the larger Passat, it is still a powerful engine. I took it on a trip from the midwest to the east coast, and yes you can sleep in that reclined position. I also hit 40+ mpg a couple of times in the averages. We have a different final drive, so my car only does about 68mph @2,000 rpm while yours will do 80 mph @2,000 in fifth. I consider it a 4 speed with an overdrive. The TDIs (diesel) don't rev as high so they get a 6 speed.

Though I love the extra 30 horses my 2.0 turbo has but it honestly doesn't feel a whole lot faster than this new "normal" golf. Plus the fact you can get the 4 dr in a stick shift kind of makes me want to get a '16 golf of my own! I agree on the interior as well it's very sporty but in a subtle sort of way. Props to VW for giving it a flat bottom steering wheel, that's cool! Anyway you should definite it do more reviews that was really good.

3 Reasons to go for the Wagon. 1. It doesn't really weigh much more, my 5MT wagon has a shipping weight of 2997 lb. 2. Roof Racks, you do not get any roof racks on a normal golf. Bike racks, kayaks, skis, endless possibilities. 3. Someday, in your regular sized golf, you will need to transport something that just will not fit and it would easily fit into the wagon version.

daren s that's why we have friends with vans, so we can get the by far better looking version of the golf.

+Guy 01 Looks are entirely subjective but to me the wagon looks complete and the hatch seems artificially truncated and easily confused with GTI models. If style and performance are paramount then the GTI is the logical choice. i own a truck and do not have to rely on the gsw to be my sole hauler but i vastly prefer driving the Golf. it gets at least double the fuel economy as my truck or company van. My point is, the GSW is incredibly capable and comes with virtually no drawbacks that arent subjective style preferences.

I've been looking at cars at various dealerships, and I have been thinking about visiting the Volkswagen dealership to test drive this particular model... C, D, J, R tried to get me to buy a 200 and or Dart; I was not impressed.

The computer shows the gear because here in Germany almost everyone drives manuals so of course it was designed with manual drivers in mind.

That makes sense, however, it's worth positing that the German Volkswagens are distant cousins from the North American ones. We don't have a lot of the same technology in them. Note the Passat in Germany vs North American. Thanks for watching!

Danny Pops That is true. We also already have the facelifted Golf in Germany. But thanks for buying a german car! I hope you'll have fun with it in the future.

With a tuning chip it can outpower a GTI on stock motor

Sounds like a fun car, just I worry about the reliability and resale of VWs.

like the review, like the VW, had to start looking outside of Subaru, because if you want any kind of option, the price is instantly like 28K.
