That's... not really much of a drift... I'd call that more of a slide. A drift is caused when the car slides at an angle or completely sideways while the rear wheels are spinning. You can't do that with FWD.
Don't get me wrong though, while the GTi is definitely not a drifting car, its good in its own right with its own strengths. On certain race tracks a RWD car will win, and on other tracks a FWD equal in power will smoke a RWD completely. Has to do with turns, driving conditions, driving surface, weather, etc.
@midgetgooch619 After learning a lot more about the GTI from gear heads who love german cars... I decided not to get one. The car is not worth getting without the paddle shifters, it reduces the 0-60 time and just makes the car more enjoyable. I hate sticks. But the DSG is total garbage. It falls apart after 150k miles and since it has two clutches, its double the cost to replace. Also the back doors make noises, and the body rusts too easily. I don't want it.
@midgetgooch619 Sorry, meant to say hatch door. They rattle a lot and repairing them under warranty doesn't fix the problem. I'd rather just have a mazda speed 6 or 3, but the interiors feel like they were made for a midget. I scoot the seat back, but the steering wheel doesn't telescope so my arms are stretched forward. lol Fail... they need to keep in mind that American's aren't tiny 5 feet people like in japan.
@GeneralHoohah yah i have a 6 speed 09 gti and i absolutely love it, i despise the dsg it was made initially for the ferrari enzo or something like that .
