My son is looking to buy his first car (he's buying so skip the lectures! ). It looks like he's interested in GTIs, and I have heard that the Gen 5s (2006.5-2009?) are a good combination of performance a reliability (in our price range of ~$5K). I'm going to look at a few this weekend. Most of the Gen 5s in our price range have high miles as expected, but is there anything in particular that you think I should look for other than CEL or other codes? Do you know how long the 2.0 Turbos can go without issues? Any advice would be welcome. Here are a few I'm interested in:
