The front of the Mk5 looks miles better than the 6.

[joshhhieee1]

the mk6 looks boring and looks older than the mk5

mk5 looks more cleaner and sharper

I would take the mk5 any day and the price the mk6 is I could buy a vw golf mk5 gti or even a R32 than a new mk6

MK5 any day!

I'll take the exterior of the Mk 5 and the interior of the Mk 6, and we have a winner!

i love the older look better but i like the new interior better

My MKV GTI got totaled close to the holidays last year. I had to replace it and I simply do not like the new GTI MKVI. I miss dearly my Red GTI with all the options.

I ended up getting a MKVI TDI, great car, and it is true, the materials feel better, the interior is friendlier, and the ride and noise are far less in the MKVI. Also, with 240LBS/FT torque, the TDI feels strong and sporty, not GTI like on the top end, but nice on the get and go.

I would have kept my GTI forever.. too bad its gone

@benyvaio That is not a GTI, that is a GT, BIG difference.

[DraquVerDe]

I like Mk5 !! :X

[benyvaio]

the problem with the mk5 is that they are comparing the mk6 golf with the mk5 GTI. The mk5 golf is actually called the rabbit in the US and the front of that is in my opinion ugly. I think they should have either chosen to compare the mk5/mk6 gtis or the mk5/mk6 golfs.

I have a mk6 golf and i love it...wouldn't trade it for a mk5 golf/gti.

i was intrigued to see the difference side by side comparing both mk5 & mk6 models... disappointed with the new front of the mk6. TBH it looks like a mk4, with a nose lift and some new lights. The mk5 is much nicer and MANLY looking, (mk6 for the girls) and the rear i would say they are almost equal, although the mk5 takes it in styling and looks!

[shocaine]

she's obviously gonna go for the mk6 come on when have girls ever gone for old things? Girls always choose the newer and the latest
