These are some news that I wouldn't like to give, but I want to show my INDIGNATION with VW/Brazil!

About 2 weeks ago the new generation of the most selled car in 20 years (in Brazil) was released (yes, that's right, 20 YEARS being the most sold). But, unfortunatly, this won't last for long. The new Gol is a damn FREAK-SHOW! It's a lot of cars, but not a GOL. It has the dashboard of FIESTA, instrumental panel of FOX, rear lights of the new Polo and the front bumper "Golf V" style. The interior (that was already poor in instruments and quality) got WORSE!!! It's an INVOLUTION of a car, that once was called the "Most wanted in Brazil".

Some pics:

VW Gol




Pay attention to the HALF PAINTED bumper....

VW Saveiro




It's not THAT bad, but got worse....

VW Parati




The only one that I liked (externally).

And now, the interior:






Just to compare, take a look at the interior of a Saveiro G3 confortline:




I know it's not that bad, but VW/B is doing this to ALL the cars produced here. The Santana is simply DEAD, Golf is still the IV generation (and probably MKV won't come here.... ), the new generation of Polo isn't in the plans of VW/B.... the only good news is the Jetta FSI that will be imported...

And that's how Volkswagen thanks for being the most loved car in Brazil...

(sorry for all this "lamentation", but I wanted to know the opinion from another view point...)

Oh man, I understand you. The new Gol family does not look good, neither on the inside nor the outside
