2009 Volkswagen Golf

For some reason, Volkswagen wants to call the VW Golf hatchback a VW Rabbit in the U.S. We don't really understand why, but it's their car and they can do whatever they want. What we do care about is getting the new 2009 VW Golf – or Rabbit or Hare or Hasenpfeffer – over to the U.S. as soon as possible. It looks good, with sleeker headlights, slimmer taillights and a more aggressive appearance that dumps the huge grille of the current VW Rabbit. The interior looks nice too. But, as usual, we wait for another year or so.
