Garry Springgay鈥檚 Top Three Performance Vehicles Available Today On An Enthusiast Budget - VW Golf GTI Sport

伊人直播 2017 VW Golf GTI 01

Volkswagen Golf GTI Sport
The hot hatch segment was pretty much invented by the Volkswagen GTI back in the 鈥�70s, and the 2017 version is plenty capable of maintaining the car鈥檚 reputation for fun and exciting driving. A 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder delivers 220 horsepower, while maintaining 25/33 mpg. The car can be had for around $30K, yet is rewarding to drive quickly in the same way that a Porsche or Ferrari is, but with good everyday value, great fuel economy, and as expected from a German marque, the best interior in the segment. You can get it with two or four doors, manual or auto transmissions, while the Sport model includes 10 more horsepower, a limited slip differential, and bigger brakes. The ride is firm without being harsh, and about what you would expect from a car with the handling pedigree of a GTI.
