I think this is one of the best looking GTI's to be produced except for the funky back end...
But the thing is beyond obese with a curb weight 3,308 pounds. That's 900 pounds more than a 1993 Civic Si, 1,400 more than a 1986 CRX Si, and close to what a Camaro Z28 weighs minus the 100 horsepower! Man I'm tired of fat overweight cars that are supposed to be for "enthusiasts". I'd wished they'd at least attempted to save some weight.
They really need to take a page from Miata's book.
