Saw the Golf 1.4 TSI on the roads already! Saw two of them in SS2, one red and one sapphire blue.

Have a long wait for mine, everything settled but the September batch is fully booked already...

The Pug 308 Turbo is RM113,888 BTW. I was seriously considering the Golf but at 160k it would stretch my budget to the max so I decided to go for the Pug instead. At least have some spare cash left for mods and upgrades laugh.gif

If you have the means to fund the Golf and enjoy spirited driving, you can't go wrong with this car rclxms.gif

ops.. the GT is the one that's RM130k+ right? doh.gif
The 308 is a much bigger car I think and the rear aircon vents should be a bit higher too I think

just test drove the golf 1.4TSi. there are actually two specs - the higher spec one is going for RM156k w/o insurance and the cheaper spec one is going for RM148k. difference is only in the aesthetics (lack of bi-xenons, etc).

i'm really impressed with it overall. very torquey for a 1.4, and builds up speeds really quickly. the showroom i went to still has some stock for next month but only in red and white. next batch is in march 2011 iirc?

polos and sciroccos will be in showrooms next month.

worth to get or not it really depends on your needs/views/opinion...

With a lot of features that rivals (and is much more than) the already feature packed Peugeot 308THP which is priced at RM130+k plus the new Golf TSI has
- 7 air bags (safety wise, I think not many other brands at this price range can rival this)
- 7 speed (100km/h+ @ 2k rpm kinda blew me away)
- really really really smooth gear change
- gorgeous headlamps that moves / follows your steering wheel

Besides being almost silent (I thought I was driving some hybrid car), on 'D' the car won't really move much by itself (it will still move though but just a bit).. you just tap a bit and it moves.

I think PEU is turbocharge while Golf is Twin-Charge right...

From uncertain info on the Net, there are 3 models that will be CKD-ed. I could only remember Jetta but Golf and Polo are not in the list.

My SA is gonna kill me already ..i change my mind too many times already .. i previously chose the silver due to no stock for the graphite blue. Then the branch manager recommended me the black color as he says the silver is too common. Today my SA called and told me the graphite blue is available since a customer pulled out. But now i'm in a quandary pulak.. saw the tornado red on the road (GTIs) .. looks menacing... icon_question.gif rclxub.gif

Yeah the one I saw on the road yesterday was a Tornado red as well as a Graphite Blue, personally I like the blue better because I like blue generally.

At least the branch you ordered from has people pulling out, I asked my SA, no one pulled out from the September list tongue.gif

I think there's no tornado red for 1.4 Tsi. It's Amaryllis red.....have a look at it and there's a tinge of orange in it

there is bro .. not featured in their website .. there are 2 reds for the 1.4 TSI.. the amaryllis red and also the tornado red. smile.gif 100% sure. since i was at the showroom and the 1.4 was parked next to another tornado red GTI.. so i had a good look at both to c the differences. The amaryllis red is sort of darker n maroonish like...
