I test drove one with the slush box (not DSG) and was surprisingly unimpressed with the power, didn't like the slush box at all, and I didn't like the SUV ride either. They aren't bad for what they are, but don't have the expectation that you'll chip it and have it feel like a GTI.
In one of the old brochure for the Tiguan, It stated it was the "GTI of SUVs"
I suppose you can Chip it to go fast and lower it for better handling.
you're better off with one of these if you want a fast suv.
Would be cool if they actually brought an STI Forester over here. Unfortunately, the one we get is a pig, even with the Turbo. The 4-speed auto it had when i drove it just ruins that thing. Otherwise spacious interior and beautiful sunroof.
