I’m of an age lol I had the original GTI 1976 brand new it was a revelation to drive if I remember it had 108BHP. But it weighed only 810KG and the handling was epic go kart like and most importantly put a huge smile on my face when driving. My Son has a new Golf R and yes it’s faster better brakes more power modern Tech 4 wheel drive BUT back to back driving the Mk1 handles way better no where near as fast but puts a bigger smile on my face. Having said that the Golf’s still a helluva car tho love this colour but where are the Tartan Cloth seats that is a must in a GTI 👍
Purchased the wrong model. i have had 2 Golf Rs. now got a GTI TCR same fun as the old one. we have had them for over 30 years. your right the R tuned was very fast. the TCR is a lot more playful. and has the dash without the silly slide controls,
Contenuti veramente da top di gamma..... Esteriormente il frontale non mi entusiasma 😐 quella grande griglia a nido d'ape... pure finta nelle parti terminali..... Si poteva fare meglio
So let me get this right. The only return to physical buttons are all on the steering wheel? The infotainment, though much larger, along with climate controls, media browsing, etc, are all touch screen?
Man those steering wheel buttons the same shitty plastic that only comes in a full assembly so if one button breaks you pay 800$. Only used the steering wheel volume up button in my gti for like a week and it got stuck
Very nice , but I’m going to hold out for the MK9 , I heard it’s getting a 32 inch infotainment screen. Ideally I’d like something the size of a hotel room tv.
Together with my wife we just bought the exact same spec Golf GTi 8.5 except for leather seats inside. We much prefer classic GTi grid pattern. It’s gonna be our daily driver for another 7-10 years and a great addition to our weekend m2 competition car. Can’t wait to pick it up soon!
I have a white mk7 manual 220 cv and I think is beautiful. But this mk8 don't dislike. Maybe interiors are not as good as 7 with tartan, but seems a very good Gti too
@ORGCars would it be so hard to include the name of track/artist of the background music particularly when your channel clickers and subscribers are asking you to do ???
Yeah. People with brains have noticed that EVs are actually catastrophic to the environment. But the leftist idiots with blind eyes will always push the narrative. Even Volvo who makes lots of EVs have published the data that the carbon footprint of a new C40 recharge is 70% more than a petrol XC40. 70%! And it will only be offset after 70000miles of use. Good gracious. Not to mention toxic mining and deforestation to make the heavy batteries. Human beings truly are a strange species.
For the people commenting about the Alfa Romeo-like wheels: This is supposed to be an ode to the Mk5/Mk6 wheels. But... Alfa used the rounded 5 spoke designs earlier on their cars tho. Thats a fact you can't get around. To all the VW fanboys: Quit it. The MK5/MK6 GTI wheels are more smooth compared to the wheels from Alfas. The modern catch on the MK5/MK6 wheels does make it look more like an Alfa wheel because it has the added depth to it. The roundness of the design doesn't suit the design language of the MK8 (GTI).
3 things i dont like 1- the front bumper is chunky with no fog lights 2-screen is bigger than expected and u cant hide it like audi 3- exhaust sound not improved and the rest of the car is very good😍😍😍
6m55s - Fit and finish quality issue on the steering column cowl in front of the indicator stalk.You'd think on a press car shown to the world medi they'd get the basics right?
Technik ist cool. Uncool wird die Bedienung beim Fahren für den Fahrer während der Fahrt. Wo war was in welchem Menü!? 🤔 Ein Rat vor der ersten Fahrt und längeren Strecken: Einfach vorher das Menü inklusive Untermenüs durch checken. 🤗 Einfaches ist nützlicher mit Sinn des Gebrauchs, wenn der Umgang damit keine Gefahr wird. 😊
Em termos de design, o para-choque fronteiro virou uma grade que parece ser de plástico preto, as rodas ficaram estranhas quando você olha o carro de lateral em relação aos modelos anteriores, e no geral lembra os hatchs como o astra. Na minha humilde opinião, o design deste carro não está acima do GTI de 2016
Magnificent machine, love the music in this video as well, absolutely magnificent. Especially the music after the engine sounds.
die Musik könnte von Vangelis sein . Ein wahrer Weltmeister seiner Klasse .
yes you right
Ok, but not as nice as my GTI Clubsport MK7. Esp as its modded..
Very cheap looking. Made in PRC.

old ones are nothing like the news golfs..newer golfs are a refined everday car
Love the scary monster headlights and grill. Sweet ride. Never thought id say that about a four door hatch

I like the new front lights, much better than the original gen 8 front lights.

I heard on the mk9 you'll actually drive by making swipe gestures on the screen.
you are so smart, expect it is coming soon.
Too much tech these days.
OUVI DIZER QUE O MK9 TEM ATÉ ÁGUA ANCANADA...!😮
So beauty. Eternal.❤
Volkswagen Rabbit is always beautiful and perfect.
1:41 Excellent! A normal petrol car!!!

Looks great with those alfa wheels way much better than last year's..
That BIG screen in the middle... unnecesary.
True, it is very disturbing 🤞🏽
C'mon that's not that big
I love it personally
Totally agree
Totally agree I own a 8 GTI screen looks better
Just shows you how good the golf 7 is
When I seen the MK7.5 I knew it was going to be difficult for VW to beat it in terms of exterior & interior quality.
I have a white mk7 manual 220 cv and I think is beautiful. But this mk8 don't dislike. Maybe interiors are not as good as 7 with tartan, but seems a very good Gti too
Nope,golf design is getting better overtime.maybe you are an old mind that have difficulty to accept modern designs.
@@dadangkkurniawan8442Agreed. And I own a Mk7. The new Mk8 looks nice and modern while the Mk7 is starting to look a bit dated.
@@NJRacer623 stop the drugs. Mk 8 is hideous. Mk7.5 all day
Beautiful. Better than the last one.
Dreaming in minutes maybe one day❤❤
All dreamers are achievers 😉
My dream ❤
Inshaallahh 😍
The huge screen spoils the look
UGLY
This is one reason why i prefer my GTI Clubsport MK7 over the newer models. Another reason is the Custom Exhaust... (Invidia dp / Cobra Sport catback)
Totally agree too big
I love the big screen. I want to see lisa ann vs wesley pipes clearly
MARAVILHA…CADA DETALHE MOSTRA QUALIDADE E BOM GOSTO… O GOSTO MADE IN GERMANY!
Un coche increíble, algún día ese será mi coche 😌
I like it. Apart from the badges on the side.
Totally agree
Golf GTI 2024 um fantástico carro,eu Edgar desejo ter um... Deus abençoe.
Emeğine ze yüreğine ze sağlık kolay gelsin ❤😂🎉😢
not gonna get rid of my 7.5 but nice car and nice video 👍
I have a 7.5 as well. Mk7.5 to me is definitely the best looking.
7.5 all day ❤
They've nailed it,when is 8.5 R coming out?
Probably next year
Amazing car
Emeğine yüreğine sağlık gardasim kolay gelsin ❤😂🎉😢
Not my color, but looks great and improved. Piano black console looks cheap. I miss the golf ball.
i Agree, MK7.5 has much better interior quality
Why copy Alfa's iconic wheels 🤔
It's not it's a nod to the mk5 golf wheels
It's not the first time either.
These rims are designed from the MK 5 GTI rims not Alfa
Copying has become the norm
You are right. They look horrible..
Даааа, Роскошь и совершенство и это всё о нём
golf gti never fail

El Golf r 👉va a ser una bestia 📺👀💪🏻

I wish these machines had 2.8 vr6 motors its was gonna be the topest range of VW range
I agree to give options like the good old days. I love the VR6. Let it be an option
Had a MK4 R32 😢 wish I still did 😢
pleace no!! 2.0Tsi has so much better performence
I am going to bet they will keep the diesel and gasoline despite what they are saying and this wont be the last version!
Hhh yes

Most Popular Car in South Africa VW Polo&Golf
I like this car. Unfortunately I can't afford it
🔥 🔥 🔥
I think they should have pushed gti 8 more, they could've waited longer
Beautiful car I love it❤
It looks very cool!!
Greatest hatchback ever
Superb!
I will get one! 😊
把儀表螢幕和中控螢幕結合成一整片曲面大螢幕會更好看,類似像BMW 3 Series, M-BENZ A-Class

Does this come with the standard SOS/traffic alert errors that require your car to stuck in the garage for two months???...

1- the front bumper is chunky with no fog lights
2-screen is bigger than expected and u cant hide it like audi
3- exhaust sound not improved
and the rest of the car is very good😍😍😍
If you’re buying one of these brand new why not just spend the extra few bucks and get the Clubsport variant?

Golf 8.5 ?
A bit of commentary would have been better than the audio. Take us through the GTI???
Damn that screen is hella big 😮
Where is my 6-speed manual transmisdion? It s/b available don't you think?
Dropped the manual
This is a 2025. Vw also said no manuals in 2025.
Yes, but a manual is an obvious choice for a GTi or R, I think
Wo ist die Plakette im Kotflügel vorne? 😮
Beautiful
It's super ❤
looks dope
How do I play videos through the media with android play? TIA ...
Bei 6:45 bis einer halben Minute können Sie klar sehen
Why it's so calming like the PS4 and PS5
Still no GTI kick plates for the facelift GTI. A bit of bummer!
cant wait for the r to come out as a estate .
Nunca um carro desse vai vim pro Brasil 😢
VW should update software appearance for all supported previous golf 8 - with bigger display (10.2”) and internet.
Drop in a VR6 for the GTI front wheel drive.
Drop in a twin turbo VR6 for the Golf R!
And I will buy it!

When your scared of fingerprints
Lol😂
Or Corona 😷
Nice
There’s no new GTD or R line ???
will threre be an R?
Incroyable
Still a step back in quality from a MK7.5
I totally disagree I owned a 7.5 and now a 8 miles ahead everything completely new vehicle
@@loganpadayachee6048 the touch screen controls are atrocious, there’s way more hard plastic now. Nah, huge step back.
Hopefully more reliable, less buggy than the 8
Blom masuk indonesia volkswagen golf gti terbaru
6:57 what is that wheel's bar plastic is not perfectly sealed.
The screen is very large. Could have made it more compact and added length to it instead breadth. Wouldn’t have looked so huge then.
The previous one there was on mk8 was better, integrated into the dashboard, much better, this one seems like it's from a flea market.
How much does it even go for ?

It's a pity that now that they've fixed the look of the 8 series, they've also removed the manual.
I don't really view this as an upgrade over the 2024, and that screen looks like a glued on iPad.
True that
