Mustang guys get easily butthurt. Most of them have no idea how much power these GTI’s can make. All the while being far more practical and cheaper than the mustang. Nice MK8 man! Looking forward to seeing the build. 👍🏾
Can’t imagine feeling any type of way towards someone for buying a car with their $ that they’re happier with. The mustang was badass and I’m sad to see it go, but also so excited to see what’s in store! Can’t wait for the new videos! As long as YOU’RE happy with the car and your purchase that’s what matters! Happy for you!
Seeing these comments and clear they don’t know you had a GTI previously. And that your wife also drives a VW. Congrats on the new hot hatch and I can’t wait to see what you do with it.
Good job for doing what you want! I sold my Challenger GT for a GTI. I love the fun the GTI is to drive and will get a V8 Challenger soon and drive them both!
Awesome man! It really is a fun car! Those that haven't driven one might not get that lol! Heck yeah man If I could have kept the stand as a weekend car I would have!
I think the Mustang is a better car but hey, let’s see where this VW takes the channel. I’m not gonna unsubscribe. I still enjoy watching your videos, thats why I started watching your channel because of the Mustang content but anyways I’m looking forward to the VW build . Congratulations
All im going to say is good luck because I love VW, Audi, and Porsche. You're going to start with VW and get deeper into the German car world. It's not fun for our wallets but definitely really amazing cars. Also you may even want another car like a Mustang so not sure why everyones mad man just wants a fun practical car! I'd love to own a 19 Bullitt and I love my VWs
Hey buddy, congrats on the new ride. Hang in there with some of the comments, you will make this new build yours , enjoy the this new chapter. Take it easy.
I see some people are unsubscribing just because it’s not a mustang, which isn’t cool… I always tell people if you’re here for only ( insert car name ) then this channel isn’t for you. Wish you the best with the Golf and can’t wait to see what you do!
Thank you for this comment! I know I will loose some people with a change like this but I hope most are here for fun car content regardless of the car in the garage (to an extent)! Thanks again! I’m excited to build this one!
Congratulations on the new car...u have 2 do what works 4 u...💪...I'm a car head in general love them all...I understand the lightweight nibble corner carver experience it's fun...gr8 content all around...good choice the golf's are dope 2...keep doing ur thing...I'll keep watching...👍💪🤙
Should be a great car! My very first new car was a 2003 gti. Since then ive had and 06 wrx a 2020 sti a 2022 performance pack muatang gt and a 2024 mustang gt performance pack. Each car got progressivly more expensive and more powerfull but the joy associated with the car was never dictated by how much it cost or how much hp it made. The gti is a great car and its own kind of fun. There is something magical about grabbing a car by the scruff of the neck and wringing it out for all its worth. You cant really do that much with a 500 hp car that weighs 4000 lbs...at least not on the street safely lol. I LOVE this new mustang but my gti will always be one of my favorites ever. Cars back then were just so dang much fun. The gti still hasnt lost that. I love mustangs because i love great cars. Therefore i will also like your channel because the gti is a great car as well! Enjoy the journey.
Thanks so much for your comment here! That's a great line up of cars for sure! I also loved the 24 Mustang but your right hard to wring out the GT on public roads safety without going to jail lol! I just missed the lightness and go kart feeling of the GTI so I'm excited to build one of these again! Thanks for sticking around :)
Ahh Congrats! I'm a little disappointed you got rid of the Stang. But, I'm gonna rock out with you cause I like your content and I'ma car enthusiast, after all. I used to own a Jetta S before I got my Stang and VWs can be fun to drive. Can't wait to see what you do to it.
Bro you're such a nice guy, you handle a lot of these comments way better than I could. I am one of your Mustang followers, I'm the guy who has the Carbonized Grey 2024 Mustang GT, I just want to let whoever reads this and is talking bad about your decision to get over it. This is your channel, you got great content and you're a cool guy man, look forward to the mods on your GTI, congratulations also, it looks sick too.
Well thank you man! Hope you're doing well! Yeah some of these comments are a bit harsh! I loved the mustang but Im a fan of a lot of different cars so my content will reflect that. Thanks for the support man! Can't wait to build this one!
It's absolutely Subjective... Your money, your decision! Is there a specific video where you go over why you got rid of the Mustang? Just wasn't a good daily driver I guess, like you said not super versatile for hauling stuff.. As a man with no wife, I absolutely do not need a practical car lol. I don't have a commute (working from home) and my girlfriend has her own Subaru for her and her kids. I also am a convertible enthusiast even here in MN so if the GTI came in a cabriolet option I would have SO much fun with that but the mustang is still more fun imho... There's no way I'd get a GTI hatch. But again, your money and I'm happy for YOU! - What mods are you thinking about? do they have a flash tune from like Cobb?
@@daily_driven Yup and just so easy to live with. I'll follow with interest. I have a kid otw so mustang may not work, but it also might be fine. Gonna try it instead of making any moves prematurely.
dont worry i made the same mistake with my 17 mustang gt i traded it for a 20 wrx that lasted 2 weeks, traded that for a scat pack, then that for a tacoma, then that for a type R, then that for a sierra 1500, now im going back to mustang but a 23-24 nothing was as fun as the mustang gt. maybe u will feel the same way maybe u will like the 4 banger but honestly i could not find anything that was even close to as much fun as my stang. gl with it
I'm just curious... you talked about having a lighter, boosted, more fun car like your old EcoBoost Mustang was compared to the new 2024 Mustnag GT... why wasn't an EcoBoost Mustang (either S550 or S650) on your small list of options?
Honestly it's because I just came from that platform a year ago and didn't want to start over with basically the same build I just had. Also I would want to tune the ECO so the S650 would be off the list
@@daily_driven Ok, I understand. I thank you for answering this question for me. 2020 EcoBoost High Performance Package (HPP) with the EcoBoost Handling Package owner here! I enjoyed your EcoBoost content and how much the GT made you miss your EcoBoost.
Should have kept the V8 buddy the VW is like a stinking fish over here in the uk to many of them on the road and they sound shite it’s your choice buddy but I’ll keep my V8 sally any day 💪
I’m happy with my decision! Here in the US mustangs are everywhere. Personally I see way less GTI’s and golf Rs here. (That’s not the reason I went this route but it’s a perk) To each their own man, enjoy the GT
Man, you must of got robbed on the trade in. I would of bought your grabber blue GT. You already had tons of stuff I wanted. I’ve been waiting for the right deal to come around. If you did trade it in, can you tell me what dealership has it? I would love to buy it if the dealership aren’t complete assholes.
Just wanted to congratulate you on your new car, hope it gives you joy it definitely going to suck not see the Mustang on your videos but all good. Did you have to put everything stock back on the Mustang or did you trade it in with the mods ?
Don’t mind the comments man. Pound for pound with your quality of content, I think the GTI will end up getting more views than the GT anyway 🤷🏾♂️ Far less competition. Golf R would’ve been cool too
Not in every way! If you have time, watch my two previous videos. It answers a lot of questions. I still love Mustang don’t get me wrong! But this is a better decision for me personally 👍
First thing you got tired of the mustang because it was automatic,and you get another automatic car big mistake, second you said the mustang v8 has no response and the GLI is not gonna be better, I raced friends GLI with my JCW and left him behind by a whole car gap both stocks... I think there is better options out there better than the GLI plus it is 40k if that is not markup I don't know what it is..
Sorry man but it’s clear you are not familiar with these cars at all! First, I bought a GTI not a GLI. The low end response of a smaller turbo engine is better in the GTI than the GT was. But the GT of course has a lot more power and top end performance. For me it was about getting what I wanted not what others want.
@daily_driven sorry I meant GTI... and yeah very familiar with them I'm a certified tech and work on them all the time and I can tell you everything about them...
Hey man channel is still here! My channel is Daily Driven, not Daily Driven Mustangs! Even though I love Mustang of course as well! I appreciate a lot of different cars 👍
Dude it wasn’t just content, I really thought I would enjoy the GT but ended up not liking it as much as I thought. Still had a good time with it. I have a passion for cars in general not just one specific car of a specific brand. Honestly I’m loving the GTI! Enjoy the stang
Probably has nothing to do with the channel. Don’t forget that UA-camrs are still regular people. He may just like that car more, and the content is just gonna follow whichever car he gets in life.
Here for the GTI content! looking forward to your videos!! yesssirrr! Hot hatch!!! i have 22" Pomelo Yellow GTI Autobahn :)
Heyy welcome!! Awesome man! Happy to hear that! Got some big stuff coming soon! 🙂👍

Congrats on the new car man! Do what makes sense for only you and I respect it! I’m curious, did you ever look into the GR Corolla?
Thank you!! 🙂 I did consider it actually! My wife needs to be able to drive it though and she has no interest in learning to drive manual lol
Congrats, enjoy the the GTI
Thank you! It's a lot of fun so far!
I painted my ecoboost this color with black rims. love it. going to add a third color for some trim later
Awesome man! Yeah I think this color with black wheels is the move for sure!
This will look baller I’ve seen some nice builds on gtis good luck bro and better gas mileage 😂
Thanks! Im excited about it! Haha true I’m getting like 30mpg! Insane lol
Nice move dude. I went from a mk7 GTI to an Ecoboost Mustang so I can definitely feel where your head is at. That’s a GREAT color for it too!
Thanks man! I appreciate that!
Let’s gooo!!! Glad you are enjoying the GTI.
Thank you!! Can’t wait to get some miles on it so I can really have some fun in it lol
Been following you for a while.. looking forward to seeing what you’re gonna do with this!
Awesome! Thank you! It's going to be a fun journey!
Congrats on the new whip man! Unfortunately was subscribed for the mustang.
Thanks man! No problem I totally get it! 👍

Oh yeah the sound is something I will definitely miss!
Don’t mind the comments man. Pound for pound with your quality of content, I think the GTI will end up getting more views than the GT anyway 🤷🏾♂️ Far less competition. Golf R would’ve been cool too
Thank you man! That's true doesn't seem like there are a ton of UA-camrs with GTI content. but maybe Im just not familiar with them yet ha
Hatches are not hot. Those two words do not go together.
Let's agree to disagree.
Want to know how I know you have never driven a hot hatch? 😂
Ignorance is bliss I guess.
Should I’ve waited for Golf R Black edition.
The black edition does look sick!
Thought I will stay but nothing here interests me anymore. Goodluck though. I'll be subbing again when you have a new Mustang. Goodluck!
No problem man! Thank you! Haha hey maybe someday!
dont have kids yet, brah, should have bought the supra... next build ;) unless kids are on the way then hahaha
How much you get for the gt and how many miles did you have
Why not another ecoboost Mustang?
Just wanted to get back into a golf 🙂
Bro whatttt why what's wrong w the Stang?? I get it tho tuner cars are fun
Loved the mustang! But yeah just wanted to get into something smaller and lighter! I had a GTI in the past so it feels great to be back in one!
@@daily_driven what's the goal for the GTI? A drag build or a track one?
Why man the mustang is better in every way !
Not in every way! If you have time, watch my two previous videos. It answers a lot of questions. I still love Mustang don’t get me wrong! But this is a better decision for me personally 👍
Well, let me know if you end up needing a tune. I happen to know a guy! :)
I definitely will be tuning it at some point here! :) ha
Yeah man I don’t get it when u keep saying it checks all the boxes but why did u buy a mustang first 🤷♀️ not a fan of ur new ride
Go watch my last two videos, it answers that question.
First thing you got tired of the mustang because it was automatic,and you get another automatic car big mistake, second you said the mustang v8 has no response and the GLI is not gonna be better, I raced friends GLI with my JCW and left him behind by a whole car gap both stocks... I think there is better options out there better than the GLI plus it is 40k if that is not markup I don't know what it is..
