You nailed it, my thoughts exactly. WTF, the sporty 4-cylinder golf now weighs 3300 lbs? I remember when 2.0L 16-valve golfs were 2400 lbs. This compact hatchback weighs almost 300 lbs more than my full size Maxima. What is even worse is that it has a worse power to weight ratio than the car it replaced.
