About the New 2008 VW City Golf

"A compact car at a sub-compact price.-Driving.ca"

Motor Trend states, "There's a reason VW/Audi are often benchmarked for interior design--they're that good."

"the City Golf will never cost more than $20,500. Admit it, this might very well be the deal of the year."

Auto123 ...."it proves to be an honest worker with a reputation of being tireless. "

Volkswagens do have a distinctive feel on the road, especially at highway speeds. They seem to "settle down" the faster you go. - Canadian Drivers
