1. In person looks great. MUCH better than pics.
2. Trunk space...HORRIBLE. Same size as my 08 GTI
3. Lack of TDI...skip
4. Seats, dash, etc. Impressive as most new VW's are now-a-days. On par with Audi IMO. But in a more "hip" kind of way, instead of "classy" like Audi
5. Interior room was also very nice. I'm 5'11" and I put the seat all the way back and still had plenty of room.

Will it sell? Not sure. Price is pretty hefty for a loaded one. And they won't budge on MSRP right now and the dealer I looked at had a $1995 markup on it. I get invoice on all VW/Audi no matter what...so that doesn't bother me. However, no TDI..no sale. I also want something that can tow a trailer w/ a car. That can't do it.
