Pros
  • Still available with VR6 engine
  • Improved DSG transmission
  • Manual still widely available
  • Superb suspension setup in 4Motion models
  • Wonderful engines, including VR5, VR6, and W8
  • Clean, classic styling
  • No bullshit
  • Double-wishbone + multi-link suspension setup
  • Rather elegantly design
Cons
  • Stuck with MacPherson struts in the front
  • Semi-independent suspension for FWD models
  • No powerful engine options
  • Why not buy a Honda with V6 in it?
