If its not reliable how can you say it's a solid car? It has leather? If the windows don't work and the interior lights work when they want how can you say it's a solid car? Toyota is a solid car, honda is a solid car, VW is not a solid car. Who cares what it does if it falls apart. Your logic is not sound unless you just that rich. Most rich people I know still care about a cars ratings.

Not awd but the new mazdaspeed 3 is a pretty nice hatch. Interior Look great and the fact it's a Mazda alone means it will hold better value and be less of a headache, not to mention its a lot cheaper and faster. There is so many turbo hatches now days take your pick

the mazda 3 has never been on the same level in terms of interior quality next to the Golf/GTI. & it might be faster but it handles like shit. torque steer out the ass. I'd take a GTI over a ms3 anyway, let alone a golf r.

worst to buy for what? reliability? yippee who cares? You've mentioned that many times before. If you can't afford a german car, good for you. But there are plenty of people that can. I don't give a shit about reliability b.c i don't keep most of my cars past warranty. At least their not like Subaru who doesn't even cover major issues even during the warranty.

My wife had a Jetta TDI, it was a good car. We're considering buying a Golf GTD b/c of our prior positive experience.

Well they are not out selling there Japanese counter parts. The camery and accord is still the best selling car in the world. Lexus is the number one selling luxury brand in America. I don't see any VW or Audi knocking down any Lexus or Toyota doors. It's all reputation.

I have a VW TDi, and it's been 100%, no issues at all. I will consider VAG for my next purchase despite what these anti-VAG internet commandos repeatedly whinge. Tired of hearing it. Once you have said it 5 times, it's enough, shut the F up.

Love my VW, had it for over half a decade and zero probs. Was a bit worried due to the internet reputation but I've been pleasantly surprised, I would definitely consider a MK7 Golf R if they bring it over with the DSG.

Exactly. And people don't seem to realize reliability rating never take into account each specific model's reliability. Like id never touch a cooper S out of warranty, but a base cooper is semi-decent. TDI VWs are very reliable. Their resale values are insane!
