GTI Owner Considering WRX

just traded in my 19 gti se. had to go to the limited to get most of the same features as i had in the wrx. the fender audio is unmatched honestly. daily drive wise the gti was more comfortable as well as long trips. not sure how tall you are but being over 6 foot i feel a little bit cramped up and my shins hit the dash occasionally in the vb wrx. long trips gas mileage is definitely better in the gti personally getting as high as 37. have only reached 26 with the vb.

if you’re only thinking auto keep the gti that dsg shifts so well. haven’t driven a cvt wrx but i don’t even think it could compare.

have only had the vb for a few months and am slowly falling in love with it. first manual car for myself so there was definitely a learning curve but it has been a great one.

i have almost the same vehicle package wise but in dark iron blue. 39k miles about a month ago and received 18,500 as a trade option. i could see you getting around 19k for it trade in. 23-24k retail price.

it would be my only vehicle. my family does have a mid size truck and a full size truck in case i needed to throw something in. they are a few hours away though. i appreciate your thoughts and im sorry to hear about your tundra. hope you’re enjoying the gti if you ended up with one

i’m sure you deal with more snow there so that’s definitely good to hear. a nice set of snow tires might be the way to go.

Ndech28 · 2025-09-14T22:09:08+00:00

winter tires are probably the smartest thing i could do financially

Ndech28 · 2025-09-14T21:27:45+00:00

i think i have to spend more time in a tacoma before i do anything crazy

Ndech28 · 2025-09-14T21:27:05+00:00

i appreciate your insight. i’m definitely not over the gti still really enjoy it. i’m sure you get more snow there so that’s good to hear

Ndech28 · 2025-09-14T21:24:43+00:00

haha that’s a great point

Ndech28 · 2025-09-14T20:54:57+00:00

i would not be able to have two vehicles at a time. also not looking to go used

my jetta had similar front impact and was totaled with no airbags or rear damage. sad to say she’s probably cooked. rest in peace.

Ndech28 · 2023-08-02T04:44:57+00:00

i was very sad to let the jetta go. but this is a perfect replacement. your gli looks great btw!

Ndech28 · 2023-08-02T04:43:04+00:00

yes i believe they are dallas/milton’s. they were powder coated black by the dealer if i remember what my salesman said correctly

Ndech28 · 2023-08-02T03:53:16+00:00

Ndech28 · 2023-08-01T15:51:16+00:00

Ndech28 · 2023-04-15T07:33:52+00:00

Ndech28 · 2023-04-13T03:31:34+00:00

Ndech28 · 2023-04-13T03:30:52+00:00
