I had a 2009 GTI that I traded for the BRZ and haven't looked back. I had been a VW guy since 1985. I lived with the little issues like O2 sensors throwing a CEL. But my MKV had intake manifold issues and later clutch problems. That was the end for me. It's one car I would consider getting a platinum 100k extended warranty. But when one is older, time is too precious to be spent fixing broken shit on cars.

They are great freeway cruisers but it was easy to find suspension limits in spirited suburban driving in the GTI. Something I have yet to do in my BRZ.
