it has a light body weight, i dont know someone has noticed it or not, on a highway when some heavy vehicle like a truck or a bus over takes you, your city feels the air pressure it kinda gets away from that vehicle, only the driver can feel it, its due to its light body.
and yes i agree with the stiff suspension, but that might be because of the stock tires i am using (eurostar), the dashboard quality is way below average, there is no trunk light in 2010 model, the fabric trims on door panels get dirty very often,
i also own a GLI 09 its always a pleasure driving it after driving city, All the issues seems to get solved as it have a good suspension, better dashboard quality and better body weight...
