Thinking about trading in my mk5 for a mk6

I had a 2008 GTI with only 19k miles and got a new 2010 that ended up cheaper per month with the financing deal. I like the newer style a lot better.

Yeah, not having owned a MKV, I was fortunate to have swapped rides with a MKV buddy last month.

Our impressions:

We preferred the throws on the gears on the MKV; the shifter and distance seemed perceptively shorter/better. The suspension seemed bouncier and more fun.

The MKVI, on the other hand crushes the V in every other category (finish, grip, handling, wheel.)

I think I prefer the VIs styling (slightly) but that said, your V has a lot of sex appeal.

I think I'm am going to hold off for now, and pick up a CPO later down the road to save some money. Also saves some fighting with the wife about switching cars.:fighting0030:

Im 21 and have had 7 cars. I have been with my wife 2 yrs now and since then have had a mkV, then a '89 coupe 240 w/ a SR, now another mkV. But between my 2 she decided she wanted a 4 door mkV GTI because the she said the Jetta's were "ugly" because of the chrome front ends then she got a mkV GLI.(because she likes how the front looks like a GTI, but it has a trunk...)
