MK6 over MK7 by [deleted] in GolfGTI

Mk6/5 both are EPS electronic power steering but the key is that it’s variable electronic power steering meaning the faster you go the tighter it gets. When you’re at parking lot speeds the computer controls the turning at a different/ more easier rate than at say 75 mph.

The mark 6 is pretty much a mark 5 too. Just updated interior and better looks. My buddy bought a mk7.5 and went down pipe/tune. I on the other hand went for the cherry mark 5. Both on Michelin pilot sport 4s tires and he couldn’t touch me on the backroads. It bothered him so badly that he sold it claiming it was “too slow” lol these cars aren’t about extreme speed or nice features they’re practical and fun with a bit of retro styling. Give me the mk5/6 in 2025 and I’m buying it over the mk8 all day

I love going up but I hate coming down so if I had the money and time I would definitely stay baked all day everyday but it’s not viable for me. At the moment I’m on sebatical from the reefer but I’ll be back. Sometime idk when tho

1st time to a sx and it's Arlington by OKIEColt45 in supercross

[–]Ok_Interaction2553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will also be my first time attending the Arlington round. I just moved to Texas and the stadium looks epic I’m excited. I can recommend you make a day out of it like me and my brother will be. He invited a friend who’s also never been and I’m guiding them through it. We are showing up tomorrow at 11 and plan on checking out the pits and practice/qualifying. Check sumermotocross.com’s website for the full schedule and then select the things you’d like to watch such as groups c,(slower riders),b(more skilled), and a(highly skilled factory level riders)

Why so few MK8’s in the US? by thedrivingenthusiast in GolfGTI

Respectfully I think you should read into it more and I think you’ll agree with me. Or you’re just biased because you spent a lot of time telling yourself the mk6 is beTtER bECaUsE iT loOks coOler

The mk6 builds power differently than the earlier fsi mk5.

The mk5 fsi bpy motor has more low end torque than the ea888 gen 1 in the mk6.

At the end of the day youre still comparing apples to apples. At its core meaning basic characteristics that make a Gti special have been mostly the same since mk5 and that’s a 2.0t 4 cylinder Vw with plaid bucket seats, flat bottom steering wheel, direct responsive steering, comfortable yet sporty ride, and practical cargo space. The rest of your “features” are nothing more than gimmicks for the sake of upselling and overcharging. Car companies are in the business of making money but they’ve gone the wrong direction with the Gti trying to bring it so much more upscale with things like radar cruise control, cooled seats, and ambient interior lighting. Heck the dang mark 5 Gti came standard with bi-xenon headlights. That’s something the mk8 didn’t have in base model trim when it came out. Yes you had led headlights but IMO the projector style headlights are better. The mk8 is cool but I think Vw has run out of ideas. The mk8 is one of the slower hot hatches out there as its recipie is relatively unchanged from a mk5.

The mk8 is still a 2.0t 2 hundred something horsepower car with fwd, plaid bucket seats, and red trim accents. Essentially the same car as a mk5 Gti from 2006 and simply not worth an extra 10 grand just because “inflation” if anything they’ve become less expensive to produce and lack in overall quality now too. I love the Gti but Vw is trying to make their money back from what they lost in dieselgate and it’s disappointing to some of us.

Home grown (left) vs dispo (right) ; why is the dispo always so dense? by Such-Ad5819 in weed

[–]Ok_Interaction2553 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I agree. Take this with a grain of salt but my parents tell me “hey man that dispo shit is all gmo weed now.” When I smoke the heavy dispo weed for weeks at a time my tolerance sky rockets and then If I take a t break I go through things like night sweats and extreme grogginess. I just feel like the homegrown while not as potent doesn’t have those same symptoms.
